big love

Yeah

One, two, one, one, two, one

Yeah, uh

Yeah

You told me "Be patient, one day you gon' make it"

When I finally did, your angel had to come and take you

Nothin' was the same, now I'm everybody's favourite

Now they know my name, now I got my own label

Woulda meant more if you were still around for sure

But I guess, I gotta just accept

Wish you peace as you rest

No more livin' with regrets

The Lord knows I was in a mess when you left

Got me feelin' like I'm, a shadow of my former self

Feelin' like I, should be reachin' out for help

I know that you're in heaven but this grief is really puttin' me through hell

And I'm really hopin' nobody can tell

Yeah, for real

So I wrote this on your birthday

Four years later and I miss you in the worst way

When I look into the mirror all I see is your face

Thinkin' 'bout you most days

I know that with God's grace

You made it through the toll-gates and now you in a calm place

Don't know where it is, I know it's far away

Before you know it I just fell into a dark phase

Just like that I put my mental health in harm's way

Didn't know how to handle it, so I crashed

Realised that I took for granted the time I had

Even though you made mistakes, you were tryin' the best you can

But instead of understandin' I would rather wash my hands

'cause - I was in a rush to be a man

So many questions I haven't asked

Stuck with these memories from the past

Feelin' like I don't know who I am

Feelin' like nobody understands

Yeah, right

Until I see you again

I know you watchin' over me and want me to win

Lettin' go of what was, no matter what it's always one love

You told me "Be patient, one day you gon' make it"

When I finally did, your angel had to come and take you

Nothin' was the same, now I'm everybody's favourite

Now they know my name, now I got my own label

Woulda meant more if you were still around for sure

But I guess, I gotta just accept

Wish you peace as you rest

No more livin' with regrets

The Lord knows I was in a mess when you left

Got me feelin' like I'm, a shadow of my former self

Feelin' like I, should be reachin' out for help

I know that you're in heaven but this grief is really puttin' me through hell

And I'm really hopin' nobody can tell
