Yea! This for Everybody That Ever Lost Somebody Uh! Just To Keep It Soulful, yea Three! Two! Verse 1: One thing about me, try to be a life changer But its not in my nature- to simply a**ume The way a person acts- thinks- reacts cuz everybody different- got they own groove They own style- but little things make em? similar From one individual to the other- like what I heard- many times before Which made me start to think- insecure I always think of my dead- but I never thought of em? in heaven What was runnin? through they head What they think bout- how I live my life- how I present my speech & my motzie alike So I start to ponder- mind went to wander- of my fam's thoughts through the pearly gates days If they're proud, if now they happy with the Man I'm becoming- I wonder what they'd say, but Chorus 4X: If You Were Here, I Know What You Would Say (Hey) Verse 2: See, there's not many people I keep close Because I never been the kind to have most Popularity, population- around me at all times and locations Type to be alone- except wit my fam & Grandpop at home I tend to lean toward- the old & the wise Like grandpop got those sayings stickin? in my mind Like the whistle of slaves is clean through time Take none for face value- read between lines Stand by your morals- never compromise When it comes to God- and your family tides All that I say is for all ears & eyes Directed to the young & hungry that despise Petitions to wallow- kids of tomorrow Leave the second generation- impatient from the sorrow Where the sunsets- it rises somewhere else Never decide to jeopardize your health Don't be jealous of the evil- God always takes care of his own people But hell's like chips- eventually you gonna have to pay the piper- for the times you trip And the good die young like Syleena and Aliyah- so you must remember next day's never promised dear Chorus 4X: If You Were Here, I Know What You Would Say (Hey) Verse 3: Time's a funny thing, but holds so much power It can take us at any day & any hour It tells how long these memories last Before age & experience makes them pa** It allows us to grow wiser- or happier From how much we spent with them Laughing, crying, fighting & high 5ing Fallin?- ballin?- stallin? but still risin? The good & the bad- when life was well rounded When they bought you back- when you were off balance When they told you truth- that hurt to the core But later in your time- it made you secure I don't know much about the afterlife, and I think its safe to say neither do you But when it get to remembering & pondering & wondering The thoughts of yours too Just remember they personality- the way they loved you And set your soul at ease It won't be a surprise- or doubt in my mind You can find in ya heart the words that they'd speak Chorus 4X: If You Were Here, I Know What You Would Say (Hey) 8X
