Letter to Grandma (free) 03:31
"If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them. Buildings burn, people die, but love, love is forever." Sitting by the open fireplace, in my favorite dungarees Played a few bars of a melody and it sounded sweet to me I thought I'd get up and take a look around, but my feet got in the way Stumbled to the floor, she was right in the door, I could see her face Verse: Oh I'm, still wishing you can come right back here I fight tears knowing that it's been a couple years I face fears 'cause I always feel you near And your laugh is all I hear when the crowd gives me cheers yeah It's almost been three years since you passed away And I'm trippin' that I never got a chance to say That I love you and I miss you every single day Why'd you have to go, I'm asking God that when I pray But I know that you be smiling up in heaven Having drinks with Aaliyah while I'm writing these confessions And uh, don't worry 'ma 'cause grandpa's still strong Over 80 years long and he's still fighting on uh You lit up every room with your smile and your laugh Can't help but cry when I'm looking at the photographs You had to leave, but damn was that unexpected And now because of you all the family is so close connected And every family party hasn't been the same I can still feel the pain every time I hear your name But even through the rain and the struggle of the game Your love is in my veins and that'll never change naw I still wish you could of met my future wife And I'm looking for a woman that I know you would've liked But a woman like you is just impossible to find So I'm looking for the one that I wanna call mine When I, go to sleep I hope I see you in my dreams Glowing up in heaven's lights, forgetting pain life can bring And I'm, hoping that you seeing everything I'm doing Living life to the fullest cause I'll never stop pushing And I, remember all the pain that you went through I was young and never told you how I felt about you I was grateful and I know I didn't show it But now that you left you got me here writing poems 'Bout the times that were good, and the times that were bad Now I can't help but laugh every time you got mad 'Cause you couldn't stay mad and had a smile when I was I bad Now ever since you passed I started acting like a man Two weeks after graduation when I got that call From my mom on the phone telling me that you were gone I was shocked, man I couldn't say a thing Seeing all the family cry, couldn't handle everything, a devastating thing And don't worry about the family cause I'll hold it down I'm doing everything for you I'm trying to make you proud Trying to make you smile, just trying to let the world know that I'mma be here for a while Never gonna hold me down Because of you, I'm nice to everyone I meet Because of you, I'm thankful for the meals I eat Because of you, everyday I'm spreading love I love you Grandma Sincerely yours, Your Grandson But how could I know she would just up and go? My best friend's gone, I'm so all alone I really miss you, Granny, I'm so all alone, When are you coming back home? I really miss you, Granny, missing you every day, Are you coming home to stay?
