[Verse 1]
He spent 18 years living life to the brim
He fought harder than men two times as strong
I don't think there was a day where I saw him complain
Something higher come and help me carry on
[Verse 2]
He was more than a friend to all of us
His selflessness was why he held on for so long
If I'm half the man that he was
I'd be a man worth watching carry on
[Chorus]
And I won't be fine but thanks for asking
My heart is heavier than your lead
It don't seem right to trade a dollar for a dime
Lord above why do you leave us all for dead?
[Verse 3]
He spent 18 years living life to the utmost
Shifted my entire paradigm
Not a minute goes by where I don't think of all those days
In that short lived 18 years careening by
[Chorus]
And I won't be fine but thanks for asking
My heart is heavier than your lead
It don't seem right to trade a dollar for a dime
Lord above why do you leave us all for dead?
[Bridge]
And I won't be fine but thanks for asking
My heart is heavier than your lead
It don't seem right to trade a dollar for a dime
Lord above why do you leave us all for dead?
[Chorus]
And I won't be fine but thanks for asking
My heart is heavier than your lead
It don't seem right to trade a dollar for a dime
Lord above why do you leave us all for dead?
