Airederu - Hold the Fort Down lyrics

[Intro] Dear grandpa [Interlude] I wanna just honor your support Cuz the longer you're gone the more it hurts I'm tryna provide to hold the fort down Starting with how I word the verse A lot of our talk is toward the earth now Prominent darkness worm for sure As long as I got the quarters earned I promise that I'll record yours first and [Chorus 1] [Verse 1] It all started when the call dropped in that Paul got sick At the hospital, we were calm And it just did not seem like a problem yet So it dissolved a bit until he got surgery And all it did was make things worse for him A burst of these problems started occurring It seemed like a returning theme, and it murdered me Deep inside knowing here's the time he'd last be heard Or seen, so we heard the ringtone blurt from the phone And were urgently told that it would be good to meet So we all just got in the car, went to the hospice Where Paul sits, to learn that he couldn't speak And he couldn't see, to the point of exhaustion And the family was there bearing it together And the bond was apparently repaired Sharing even tears, praying it would get better Without help, he was barely breathing air So we held hands in the form of a circle And began to formally worship the heavens Of course, with the service of begging, praying [Chorus 2] [Verse 2] My brother and I saw the family coming outside We wanted to comfort the tribe And then we offered anyone to come for a ride Just to get something to buy But in the end it was just him and me Cuz all of the others declined, and I have this memory Of driving the way back, speeding And an officer tried to get us to stop And pull up to the side of the road Something we couldn't deny And he told us "sit", until a bunch of tickets we're folded No wondering why, then we get back and discover you died Wandering by and hearing the stuttering cry of my father As an utter reply to losing a one-of-a-kind Definitely the saddest thing I've ever seen in my life So I gotta say "rest in peace", I can mentally picture you Resting in heaven's seat with the rest of the family And I desperately hope at the moment I go That you and the rest are next to me Blessed to be home as our souls and [Chorus 1] [Interlude] I wanna just honor your support Cuz the longer you're gone the more it hurts I'm tryna provide to hold the fort down Starting with how I word the verse A lot of our talk is toward the earth now Prominent darkness worm for sure As long as I got the quarters earned I promise that I'll record yours first and [Outro] We'll never forget you, promise that you'll never forget us
