[Intro:]
...I have so many things to see and do
You must not tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that we had so many years
I gave you love
You can only guess how much you gave me in happiness
I thank you for the love we each have shown
But now it is time I traveled alone
So grieve awhile for me if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by trust
It is only for awhile that we must depart
So bless those memories within your heart
I will not be far away for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you cannot see or touch me I will be near
If you listen with your heart you will hear
My love all around you then
When you must come this way alone
I will greet you with a smile and a welcome home
[Verse 1:]
When I think about and miss ya, every time I come across your picture
I get shivers, wishing you were hear to
Kiss my head and tell me that my life is worth livin'
Plus you hold me while you pray, made me wanna be a christian
Made me wanna sit and listen, everything you said was wisdom
And your grand kids loved you like they were your own children
Just to have you back for five more minutes I would giveth
Everything I have to see you standing in your kitchen
With another pot of chilly; another family Christmas
I'd give back every Hefty bag of gifts that you would give us
Every years worth, just to have you back here with us
It's so hard to say these rhymes probably as hard as it is to listen
Cause I wanna re-a**ure you, I'm down here really livin'
But a life without you grandma is just a harder existence
Feel like my heart's in a prison, even though I'm not alone
I'm still hoping and wishin' that you'll come back home
But your gone
[Hook:]
And I'm still down here
Fighting the fear
Of being alone
Of being alone
Still down here
Holding onto the hope
That you're not really gone
That you'll come back home
[Interlude:]
Come back home, come back home [x4]
[Verse 2:]
You were like a gift from heaven, I know that's where you're restin'
But my question: how come as I understood your lessons
Did the Lord call you home before I could show you my progression
Show you all the return on your investment into my blessins?
But praying is stressin', the importance of a friendship
The value of forgiveness, the struggle of the sinners
Grandma you taught me so much but before you could finish
You had to take that journey, there was no defense against it
I heard you were at peace as you quietly drifted
Into eternity's oceans on your way to the kingdom
I hope the Lord knows all the happiness that you'll bring him
I hope when you arrive the angels stand up singin'
Because to me, you were heaven in a human being
And around you all my agony, it really had no meaning
It would all fade as I rest in the shade
And the peace of your love but now you're above and I'm
[Hook]
[Interlude]
[Verse 3:]
The world's dark it's a mystery to me why he made us
Everybody everywhere is filled with hatred
I await the coming of a second greatness
Of a savior, come and save us
From ourselves, oh making the world a living hell hole
You gonna feel it when the bell toll
And mark the coming of a cataclysm
That be the end to all your judges and your f**ing overcrowded prisons
That be the end to every m**m, every Christian
Every gay, every straight, politicians, all religions
Maybe as the human race we don't deserve the Lord's forgiveness
Maybe we were a mistake, maybe all this is a vision
Just a f**ed up hallucination cause how could the Lord's creation
Become an abomination, a desolate combination
Of hopeless, incarcerated, starving and poverish nations
The power play is keep us slavin' for minimum wages
Everybody's either racist or they hate you cause you ain't that way
Feel like you live in a faithless place
A hopeless place, how can a man cope this way?
Strange looks from my family when I spoke this way ("He needs help")
Nah, homie this ain't no joke to me
Cellphones dumbing you down quicker than dope these days
There's a demon around every corner provokin' me
I was gonna take my f**ing life but God spoke to me
He said:
[Outro:]
*reversed*
He said: "Be still my son"
