Story behind the song
The song is about people mourning you at your funeral. It starts with the reverend delivering a eulogy for two people who were taken before there time.
Lyrics
(Beginning)
Lord our God,
you give and you take away.
You blessed us through the gift of these two young men's lives,
who are now taken from us
and whose loss we mourn.
Help us, through our tears and pain,
to glimpse your hand at work
to bring blessing out of grief.
To you be glory for ever.
Amen.
(BC Jones)
I was created in '86 and man as I reminise
This lifes existance is like a nice rememberence
The greatest known days of youth Ill forever embrace em too
Cause they flew past my face but I can still taste the residue
To my mother I love ya I kno you scream and you wonder
Why your baby was summond when he was still such a youngin
And Im sorry for all the b*** in and fightin we did
The times of hightened trife and the problems within
Im sorry for dope dealin and the feelings of greif
The nights of no sleep when I was still in my teens
Now Im gone forever mama I guess the karma was coming
But in heavens mountains mama over you ill be watchin
And dad I only wish I was half the man you are
Iv done some bad deeds and Iv taken things to far
But you kept me in check and you I respect hard
Ill see you at the gates and wait with open arms
To my women I wish ya'll all the best of luck and love
Im sorry I wasnt all that you thought I was
And We Im really sorry about the pressure and tears
But understand me baby your still all that I hold dear
To my Boys mothaf*** as you kno we brought the noise
Chris,Drew, and FU I thank ya'll for being true
Rosso and Leez I owe you mothaf*** as everything
And if you need me just look up Im listening
(Chorus)
So hold ur head up now
Child I kno
You miss ur men so
Wish theyd come home
But up in heavens clouds
They are not alone
They're watching over you
and they wanted you to kno
(Leezy)
I see you lookin' at me as I'm layin their
Dead in the casket and ya'll sayin prayers
Don't worry about me, fam it's nice up here,
Got angels around me, man wipe those tears,
Theres no reason to fear, eventually it happens,
Life's not a race no need to get your laps in
But I saw my finish line and boy its devine
Let them critics whine, they be judged for them crimes
Old friends and familes are all reunited,
Saw my grams, again, believe what she and I did?
Watchin' Price of Right screamin' "Come on Down",
Glad I seen the light, man I'm lovin' now!
Man, it's a blessin' to be chillin' in heaven'
no need for arrestin', we've done our confes-sin'.
Every man's a sinner, but I've paid for mine,
But you come out a winner, and you'll be fine
And to my family, I'll miss you the most,
but no need to mourn me, we'll always be close,
I'll watch over you, as you go on with your lives
Best believe, we'll be reunited in time
And to my nephew, you know I'll watch you grow
This place is a little empty without you though,
And before I go, I have some advice left,
Life is short, guys, just give it ya best
(Chorus x2)
So hold ur head up now
Child I kno
You miss ur men so
Wish theyd come home
But up in heavens clouds
They are not alone
They're watching over you
And they wanted you to kno
(End)
Father, the death of these men brings an emptiness into our lives.
We are separated from them
and feel broken and disturbed.
Give us confidence that they are safe
and their life complete with you,
and bring us together at the last
to the wholeness and fullness of your presence in heaven,
where your saints and angels enjoy you for ever and ever.
Amen.
