Intro (Square 1):
Yo, it's Jad3n and Square 1 on the track. We dedicate this song to someone we will never forget, someone who impacted our lives on a day to day basis, somebody who was always there for us, somebody who never left our sides, no matter how hard it got, somebody who always had the right answers and advice for any question we had, somebody we loved dearly, dawg, this one's for you
Verse 1 (Square 1):
Back when I was young, immature, and blonde
You were always there to teach me right from wrong
Living on our own, it was me, you and mom
The things you two have done is why we're writing this song
Riding around the block on that little trike you had
You would chase me and the cousin around the cul-de-sac
When we got in trouble you never got mad
You would just pick us up and held us
I will never forget that laugh
The older I got, the more you meant to me
All those life lessons you gave to me for free
Back in the day, I was just too blind to see
You were my best friend, always there for me
Now that you're gone I sit and reminisce
About all our times together that I'll truly miss
Our walks, our talks, the family christmases
Now you're above in eternal bliss
All I have left in this cross around my neck
It hangs on my neck as a sign of respect
And to remind myself to never forget
Hold the ones you got because you never know who's next
Chorus (Square 1):
When I look into the sky
I find myself always asking why
God took you from us late that night
I ask you lord let his soul shine bright
Live to walk and walk to live
Take in all life has to give
From the top of Mount Hood to the Hawthorne Bridge
You'll hold our hands to help us climb that Cliff
Verse 2 (Jad3n):
Grandpa it's Bobby, I want to tell you that I miss you
I miss all those walks that I used to take with you
Around the block by your house in Hillsboro
Or down in Portland where we'd talk with the homeless folk
You told me how much I love and need my mom
You told me it'd be alright when everything seemed so wrong
My knees used to ache because our walks seemed so long
But now I'd give anything for one more walk around the block
You made me realize how beautiful this world really is
You took downtown and to the Rose Gardens
I remember standing there with up at Mount Hood
I didn't things would ever not be all so good
It's silly because whenever I pray to you I get this feeling that you're still always here with me
And it gives me comfort to think that with my necklace around my neck
I can't get hurt cause you're here with me
Trust me, you mean everything to our family
You taught us how to see life secret hidden beauties
So every year we walk in your name
Because without you, none of our lives would ever be the same
Chorus (Square 1):
When I look into the sky
I find myself always asking why
God took you from us late that night
I ask you lord let his soul shine bright
Live to walk and walk to live
Take in all life has to give
From the top of Mount Hood to the Hawthorne Bridge
You'll hold our hands to help us climb that Cliff
