[Hook]
Welcome to my funeral, please pray for me today
I am not among the living, they sent me away
I was not a good man but I sure did try to be
When you're doin' whatcha do now, please remeber me
[Verse 1]
Welcome to my funeral, we're rady to begin now
Appreciate your presence now, have a seat and settle down
If you brought some beer for me, pour a little in my mouth
Don't worry about spillin' on me, I'm already headed south
Hope you like the box, I'm sure they spent a couple thousand on it
Put me in a whole remember, drop a red bandana on it
Better hurry up and get started with the service
After all, it's my first and I'm a little nervous
Far from perfect, lord knows, I was a sinner every day
Those of you that hated me, I hope you're glad I'm out the way
Thanks for shootin' below the neck so we can keep an open casket
I'm suprised anyway, how ling my life lasted
I did a lot of bad now, pray for my forgiveness
If you saw me doin' good, stand up and be my witness
I did the best I could to fix the wrongs in my life
There was somethin' 'bout me though that just wasn't right
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
That's my wife up front lookin' s**y in her black dress
Worryin' about the kids, boy I can tell she's really stressed
I can see the girls cryin', that's the thing I hate the most
I'm wishin' they could feel the hugs and the kisses of a ghost
I'ma be watchin', you keep prayin'
Now don't get upset when the memories are fadin'
All I ever wanted was to be your dad
And I'm sorry 'bout the way that life went bad
Hope that you learn from the lessons that I taught ya
And I hope you forgive me from this grief that I brought ya
Listen to your mother, be good, and stay in school
Stay away from boys, pray to god 'n you'll be cool
The love of my life, my wife, the firecracker
I'm sorry about the way that our dreams got shattered
I never meant to hurt you, you have my deepest love
You truly are an angel, you'll always be my lady bug
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
To the homies in the click, hold it down there tight
This ain't the end of me, it's just the end of life
You gotta keep it goin', progress, and move forward
Whatever you're into, it should produce more work
Multiply in numbers, grow strong, and be stable
Don't be like Cain, or end up like Abel
Give to my family anything that's mine
Give respect to the lord, there is a fine line
See the haters happy now, they got what they wanted
Make sure they blame me when all their houses are haunted
Some will curse me long after I'm gone
Do what you will of them, cause their lives won't last long
These are the wishes of the man that just died
You can hear me through the speaker all the way from the other side
Pour out some drink for me as I rest in peace
I'ma be in your dreams, you shall see me in your sleep
[Hook]
