Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every time the guns go blast
Not a day goes past
I don't miss my dogs
I'm wishing the days can go fast
So I can crash, close my eyes
Try to go to sleep and bring you back
But I can't bring you back
Nah, can't bring you back
So I back back memories of us acting bad
Wish time could freeze, but our time is up
And I promise yah, that I'ma hold it down till it's my time to leave
And I'm ok
I mean I'm alright, I'm not ok
And it hurts my soul I won't see your face
But if you truly are in a better place
Like what they say and that's ok
I'll be alright
I've been up all night
Like if I did shit with my **** to be living with the time
Tick-tickin' away
Tick tick tick, tickin' away
So forever I'm forever in search of
Yesterday
Yesterday, like a Beatle song
I close my eyes
Repeat the song, tryna bring us back to where we belong
Middle of the club when B was on
I tear this song
Blowing on going back before so I meet the don
You should know I meet way back
With my dog when I go
So when times say goodbye
Ya'll say hello
Bye, bye x6
Bye, bye x6
Bye, bye x6
Jay Z: Rock with me
MC come on
And you never got the chance to see how good I've done
And you never got to see me back at number one
I wish that you were here to celebrate together
I wish that we could spend the holiday's together
I remember when you used to tuck me in at night
Or the teddy that you gave me that I held so tight
I thought you were so strong you made it through whatever
It's so hard to accept the fact that you're gone forever
I never knew that I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on
I wish I could talk to you for awhile
I wish I could find a way to try not to cry
As time goes by
And soon as you reach a better place
Still I'll give the world to see your face
And I'm right here next to you
But it's like you were gone to soon
Now the hardest thing to do
Is say bye
Bye, Bye x6
The hardest thing to say is
Bye, bye x6
Bye, bye x6
This is for my people's who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby
Your man or your lady
Put your hands way up high
Put em up, put em up
We will never say bye
No no no. Mommas, daddy's, sister's, brother's, friends and cousins
This is for my people's who lost their grandmother
Lift your head to the sky
You will never say bye
Never knew i would hurt like this
And every day life goes on
I wish I could talk to you for a while
I wish I could try not to cry
I wish as time goes by
And as soon as you reached a better place
Still I'll give you the world
To see your face
And were were here right next to you
It feels like you were gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say
Bye, bye
Bye, bye x6
It's hard to say bye bye
So come on somebody
Sing it with me
Wave your hands up high
This is for my people's who just lost somebody
So this is for everybody
Just keep your hand to the sky
Cause we will never say bye, bye
