When I pass by your graveyard,
I think back to 18
No food on the table, no AC
Haven’t been home in 4 years it seems
Japanese gardens old dirty apartments
Long car rides to a bus stop
You were there 24 seven no excuses
Family comes in all shapes and sizes
Coffee pot steaming
No reason to think otherwise
I had a sense of purpose
We had our shared memories
That’s the part I cherish the most
Lower extremities not working properly
Bad health increased
Didn’t have a church
But the way you preach didn’t matter
If we had good food to eat
Spirits flying high up against the beach
I just wanna do something special for you
Your connected to the natural side of things
Mother Nature is taking care of my dreams
For you to be with grandma
Up in forever land is all I ever think about
I’m trynna’ be a better man
You live through me daily
Heart bursting out the seams
I might have a gift given by thee
Passed down from generations
It made me believe in me
Oh grandpa I hope that I can fill these shoes
Walking across countries
Digging wells as deep as the Pacific Ocean
For this life that I’ve chosen
Make the most of every moment
