It's been a few years now, time flies
It was like yesterday, i was wiping my eyes
From my cries of you leavin' my life
But i realize when i cry,
well you up in paradise
Don't get me wrong,
i still miss you to this day
And i wish you could
witness your little
cousin on the stage
but some things change,
it's the way things go
21st birthday-
probably got your wings
and halo
but you always been an
angel in disguise
now stuntin' to an
angel in the skies
step back put your
picture to the side
close my eyes with my head
up high reminisce your life
thinkin' 'bout the times we
had way back we were reppers
flashbacks to the past
ain't as bad as i excpect i
expect it was but you ain't gone, you
just live in the sky
you had one life to live
and you were
too sick to die
take my hand and
hold it tight, i
will never let go no
not for life (4x)
hey boy, how you livin'
up in heaven cuz?
even though you ain't
here you know that we
still sending love
now i know you stay
true up there
'cause i look outside,
the sky's blue up there
recall the night i have
you ride in my car
you said 'keep on
rhymin' in no time
you'll be a star"
well, you don't know this
but i took that to
heart
and i use the word to
motivate me to get this far
and now i'm doing big things
like you said i would
and i now i'm gonna make it
one day 'cause you said i could
'cause if i want it bad
enough it'll end up good
you supported me, not
too many understood
i don't think you understand
how much you meant to me
but things happen for a
reason, this was meant to be
cause no there's nothing
hard, you livin' heavenly
and since life goes on, i
hope you rest in peace
take my hand and
hold it tight, i
will never let go no
not for life (4x)
hey slim, you weren't
like anyone else
when i called for you,
you never hesitate to help
so the day you left i
can't axpress how i felt
that it hurts to talk to
you 'cause it's like
talking to myself
but i know you hear me
loud and clear
'cause the only thing
between us is the
clouds and air
man, i can't wait to
see you again
great granddaddy way up
high, i know you with them
and your great uncle too,
the one that past from cancer
i know you up there with
them now, as happy as ever
and not to mention your
sister you lost you
were younger
who'da thought, a few
years, you'd be together
i'm done mourning your
death, i'm celebratin' your life
whenever darkness falls,
eventually it gets bright
so yeah, i'ma make it
through, i'll manage
and by the way, i don't
love you to death - i
love you past it
take my hand and
hold it tight, i
will never let go no
not for life (out)
