Lyrics
Its like i saw one time, and the time was rare
i was with you one second, then the next you werent there
mom is miss you, i just wanna see and rejoice
i wanna touch your soft skin, i wanna hear your voice (please)
cause truth be told, i cant recall the tone
i just suck it up, keep movin, and hold my own
but no, and i know, i'm not rubbing it in
and i pray lord, PLEASE, lemme see my mother again
cause i havent seen you since the last time you kept me
i've got your letter by bed my bed, you know the one you left me
sick in your bed, you ur pen to the paper
left me a legacy, so i'm returning the favor
and this ones for you, mom, i know you hear it
my moment is gone, but i'll stay close to your spirit
cause its one thing i got left, i'll hold it close
i know i miss alot people, but i miss you the most, mom
i close my eyes at night
and hope that i could see the light, yea
yea, every single dream
naw, it just aint what it seems, huh
I wake round 5, my dads knocking at the door
i sit up, and try to think, whats he up now for
'son, i've got some bad news, gram is gone'
i just looked with a blank stare, like what went wrong
we were so close, but hadnt seen her in a month
i felt sick to my stomach, my eyes were shut
i just layed backed down and reminised the days
back when gram affected my life in posotive ways
kept me in church, had my head on straight
but then mom and gram were gone, i'm in a negative state
thats when my family picked me up, they had my back
ms. griffin helped out, i'd like to thank her for that
but i still miss late nights when we cracked jokes
up early every morning, when i heared her spoke
i could never re-pay the good times and laughs
gram i'd do anything just to have you back, mmm
i close my eyes at night
and hope that i could see the light, yea
yea, every single dream
naw, it just aint what it seems, huh
I cant imagine losing dad, brooke, or linds
j-hall, k-real, and the rest of my friends
i just missed so much, want back my time
wish i didnt have to re-live through rap and rhyme
but i guess its ok, made me a man
painted my picture, its all parta the plan
i just gotta keep my head up, i'll try for now
but i'll still ask the questions, why and how
some things we'll never know, got to accept the facts
footprints in the sand, thats where i left my tracks
and as i fade into obscurity, remember the times
i tried to help you out a lil by writing the lines
take my past and learn from it, maybe change the world
i'd be happy just to touch just one boy or girl
so if you feel me, reach out, and scream to the sky
You only got one moment, dont let it pass you by, now
i close my eyes at night
and hope that i could see the light, yea
yea, every single dream
naw, it just aint what it seems, huh
