Lyrics

0:01Haha
0:03Yeah
0:05Had to do this one
0:08One time
0:10Hello death it seems that we meet again
0:13You keep taking friends that I'll never see again
0:15I guess they gotta leave
0:16But if we pretend that they never left
0:19Well we gon' see them then
0:20Never leave our heart never leave our thoughts
0:22As time goes by they'll never be forgot
0:25Life goes on though I wish that they was there
0:28S**t like this never gonna seem fair yeah
0:31So can I have a moment of silence
0:33For anyone who's gone from the coldness of violence
0:36And I know you wanna see me go to college
0:38But I'm sorry I don't think that I'ma make it
0:40Because this world is mine for the takin'
0:43So when I get famous they gon' know what your name is
0:46And no one understand what the pain is
0:48And how the blood run numb where my veins is
0:51I'd like to thank you 'cause you made me a man
0:53Told me to never let it go so I'm taking a stand
0:56Always in the crowd when I played in the band
0:58Your grandson is everything I say that I am
1:01And maybe I am a little bit over my head
1:03But I'm feeling so alone tryna cope with your death
1:06Holding my breath wishing I had one more day
1:09Wishing you could be there when I graduate
1:12Ugh and it's sad to say
1:14That no one in this room understand me
1:16I know you had to leave so rest in peace
1:19But please can you watch over Nanny
1:21'Cause she loved you and I love you
1:24All the prayers I'm saying may bug you
1:26But I'm just checking in on what you up to
1:29So how they treating you up there
1:31Too stubborn for a cane way too cool
1:34Sleeping at your house walking me to school
1:36Thought I was a fool when my grades started slipping
1:39When I played ball you was always in admission
1:42You loved me more than I've been loved before
1:44And that's a type of thing that everyone ignores
1:47But not me you got me
1:50Always and forever Poppy
1:51Time goes by going without you
1:54Hope you know I've been thinking about you
1:57And I know I know I know I know
1:59That they took you from your home
2:02But you're in my heart
2:04So I'm never gonna be alone
2:06Time goes by going without you
2:09Hope you know I've been thinking about you
2:12And I know I know I know I know
2:14That they took you from your home
2:17But you're in my heart
2:19So I'm never gonna be alone
Haha
Yeah
Had to do this one
One time
Hello death it seems that we meet again
You keep taking friends that I'll never see again
I guess they gotta leave
But if we pretend that they never left
Well we gon' see them then
Never leave our heart never leave our thoughts
As time goes by they'll never be forgot
Life goes on though I wish that they was there
S**t like this never gonna seem fair yeah
So can I have a moment of silence
For anyone who's gone from the coldness of violence
And I know you wanna see me go to college
But I'm sorry I don't think that I'ma make it
Because this world is mine for the takin'
So when I get famous they gon' know what your name is
And no one understand what the pain is
And how the blood run numb where my veins is
I'd like to thank you 'cause you made me a man
Told me to never let it go so I'm taking a stand
Always in the crowd when I played in the band
Your grandson is everything I say that I am
And maybe I am a little bit over my head
But I'm feeling so alone tryna cope with your death
Holding my breath wishing I had one more day
Wishing you could be there when I graduate

Hope you know I've been thinking about you
And I know I know I know I know
That they took you from your home

So I'm never gonna be alone
Time goes by going without you
Hope you know I've been thinking about you
And I know I know I know I know
That they took you from your home
But you're in my heart
So I'm never gonna be alone
