| [00:11.30] |
You came into my mother's life at the right time |
| [00:13.90] |
More than a step-father more of like a lifeline |
| [00:16.45] |
She ain't really had happiness since my pop died |
| [00:19.25] |
She was living but living is always not alive |
| [00:21.88] |
And my momma should be treated like a queen |
| [00:24.22] |
You gave her everything she ever needed like a queen |
| [00:27.05] |
Probably the most gentle G I ever seen |
| [00:29.62] |
The love y'all shared I never seen in human beings |
| [00:32.41] |
Y'all were together twelve years never no fights |
| [00:35.25] |
Not even a little argument that was so nice |
| [00:38.05] |
Three of us eating dinner together most nights |
| [00:40.64] |
Working seven days a week that ain't no life |
| [00:43.26] |
But never once did I hear you complain |
| [00:45.33] |
Even when they let you go |
| [00:46.53] |
Never hear you with blame |
| [00:47.76] |
|
| [00:48.62] |
It take a real man to walk through the rain |
| [00:50.68] |
He was a real man who got sick |
| [00:52.29] |
And fought through the pain |
| [00:53.20] |
|
| [00:54.34] |
I am made of all four corners |
| [00:59.73] |
All directions without the borders |
| [01:03.95] |
|
| [01:04.88] |
I am strung so loose together |
| [01:09.44] |
And you're a thread that holds forever |
| [01:14.82] |
|
| [01:16.03] |
I'm not nobody's baby |
| [01:24.65] |
|
| [01:26.62] |
You had your shit too |
| [01:30.09] |
But you always came through for me |
| [01:35.89] |
|
| [01:36.77] |
I walked in that morning |
| [01:38.07] |
And knew something was wrong |
| [01:39.36] |
I tried to talk to you Rock you didn't respond |
| [01:42.03] |
I called 9-1-1 and then ran for my moms |
| [01:44.76] |
Waiting for the ambulance and I tried to be calm |
| [01:47.36] |
Moms went with you |
| [01:48.30] |
I stayed and held down the fort |
| [01:49.97] |
I was nervous I was crying and really distraught |
| [01:52.64] |
I was alone by myself |
| [01:54.08] |
Just left with my thoughts |
| [01:55.50] |
Mommy called |
| [01:56.12] |
Told me that you had a stroke and fought |
| [01:58.02] |
I ain't seen a hospital since my father died |
| [02:00.76] |
I don't like it there memories is locked inside |
| [02:03.42] |
When I walked inside the room we started to cry |
| [02:05.81] |
|
| [02:06.53] |
I was just so happy that you was alive |
| [02:08.89] |
And you told you how much |
| [02:09.97] |
That you hate the hospital |
| [02:11.40] |
And that they thieves are trying |
| [02:12.76] |
To keep their pockets full |
| [02:14.18] |
I think I hold myself a little bit responsible |
| [02:16.61] |
When you was smoking all the time |
| [02:18.12] |
I wasn't stopping you |
| [02:19.37] |
Nevertheless you came home and that was real |
| [02:22.06] |
A lot of therapy and doctors gave you lots of pills |
| [02:24.77] |
You couldn't thrive anymore |
| [02:26.17] |
You had to stop and chill |
| [02:27.38] |
And that's too much for anybody |
| [02:28.85] |
That can stop your will |
| [02:29.80] |
|
| [02:30.97] |
But you never got back to your norm |
| [02:32.73] |
You was proud |
| [02:33.55] |
Didn't want any help from my mom |
| [02:35.44] |
I left for tour |
| [02:36.29] |
And you asked me how long I'd be gone |
| [02:38.08] |
And I could see inside your eyes |
| [02:39.42] |
You knew something was wrong |
| [02:40.76] |
I got back mommy told me you was sick again |
| [02:42.94] |
|
| [02:43.45] |
Couldn't believe |
| [02:44.05] |
That we was going through this shit again |
| [02:46.07] |
I love you Rock |
| [02:47.05] |
And I'm always gonna miss you friend |
| [02:49.03] |
And for me it's just the same story |
| [02:50.60] |
Different pen |
| [02:51.30] |
|
| [02:51.91] |
I am made of all four corners |
| [02:57.25] |
All directions without the borders |
| [03:01.30] |
|
| [03:02.42] |
I am strung so loose together |
| [03:06.77] |
And you're a thread that holds forever |
| [03:12.80] |
|
| [03:13.58] |
I'm not nobody's baby |
| [03:22.38] |
|
| [03:23.95] |
You had your shit too |
| [03:27.55] |
But you always came through for me |
| [03:33.73] |
