Cemetery Drive Runny Nose
[VERSE ONE - CHRIS WRIGHT]
Six feet down
Everything changed when you passed and I found
Everything blazing and all of my patience
Based in the flowers that sprung from the ground
Spring water basins for all of my green tea
You taught us loving ain't always so easy
You made a point to remind us that you're always watching
So I know that you'll always see me for who I am
And my dirty hands lie unredeemed
It's all noise I can't fly in between
And my insights twisted from what I've seen
And I hate these sounds
The way that they feel when they come out my mouth
The knowledge I'm not who I was when you died
And I hate me now more than evеr
I wanna be better, but I know that I failеd to try
I, I
[HOOK - ATWOOD]
And you, will be on my mind
When you're gone
I'll keep you close
Right by my side
And you, will be on my mind
When you're gone
I'll keep you close
Right by my side
[BRIDGE - MILES POWERS]
He died some days until my birth
And she died to sleep her peace
I'd love to know just who y'all were
And I'd love to speak my piece
He died some days until my birth
And she died to sleep her peace
I'd love to know just who y'all were
And I'd love to speak my piece
[VERSE TWO - TEEAWGO]
I want my Daughter's name to pay homage to you
Hoping she grows up to be as strong as you were
You were the first one I ever bawled over
The night when we got the call I couldn't bare the thought of
You not being around the next we visit
I was mad I couldn't be there for your final minutes
Funny, 4,000 miles feel like a short distance
Relative to where you are now
How many funerals I be missing because of it
I didn't call enough, feel guilty, can't stomach it
Every time we hug it's like I'm tryna give you some of my life
You're getting older and I'm terrified of saying goodbye
Because I don't know when I will see you next
Always inspired me to be my best
I wouldn't want you to see me like this
I ask for your blessing every single time I pray
Till the day, that I meet you at the gate, far away
[HOOK - ATWOOD]
And you, will be on my mind
When you're gone
I'll keep you close
Right by my side
And you, will be on my mind
When you're gone
I'll keep you close
Right by my side
[BRIDGE - MILES POWERS]
He died some days until my birth
And she died to sleep her peace
I'd love to know just who y'all were
And I'd love to speak my piece
He died some days until my birth
And she died to sleep her peace
I'd love to know just who y'all were
And I'd love to speak my piece
[VERSE THREE - ATWOOD]
It musta happened in a second
Probably when no one was really paying attention
Working overtime tryna give his Miss the best
And his heart stopped working like they ripped it out his chest
I haven't seen him in a minute
And I never will again
I wonder what they were thinking when they saw him and how it went
Probably some shit like
"Why you sleeping on the job bruh?
You're crazy just get up dawg
Quit playin', now get up yo"
It musta happened in a second
With no sign or no warning, my Grandma had lost her best friend
Shit man, that's her best friend
It musta happened in a second
Probably when no one was really paying attention
Probably with no one around to see it or hear a sound
My Grandpa died alone in a second
