Goodbye
"Goodbye"
[Intro: DMX]Let us pray for those that we've lostWe know that we miss them for selfish reasonsOh Lord my God, indeed you I put my trustSave me, from all them that persocute meAnd deliver me, in Jesus name, GRRRRR
[Chorus: DMX - singing]Cause we all go anyway, I'ma say goodbye todayCause it could be any day, I'ma say goodbye todayWe've grown in so many ways, but I'ma say goodbye todayCause it could be any day, I'ma say goodbye today-ayayyyy
[Verse One]I'ma say goodbye today, cause I don't know whenwe gon' cross paths again, until thenI'ma be that, and see that, speaks the truthBelieve that, I'ma see that, to reach the youthMy sufferin will not be in vain (NOT)Neither will yo' pain ever since you passed to hear yo' nameRest in peace to Autumn - we all knowcancer cells kill, but if they caught 'em, they could afford 'emIf you'd still be here, right here with usWe'd have plenty time before death came to get usBUT, what is death like? Should I really care?After lookin at it, was life really fair?Did you burn any bridges? Did you make amends?Did you ask God for forgiveness for your sins?What is Heaven like? If you could come back, should you?If you could communicate for a moment there, would you?... Just questions that we ask ourselves, every day (wanna know)
[Chorus]
[Verse Two]So young, so giftedDirection of life was uplifted, when the wind shiftedAnd took a turn for the worse, with the blessing come the curseA nigga stressin took the dog into the hearseMy nigga Divine was way too young to dieFell out the nest and was way too young to flyBut that didn't stop fate from happeninIdle time make the Devil HATE WHAT'S HAPPENING!God no! Why did it go that way?Comin from his fans away, why did he go that day?Lightly, I dare say, life goes onDonuts, Trey and Jerz I say, please be strongHe was supposed to be on the road with meI wish somebody WOULDA came to get me and niggaz woulda had to hit MEBut until then, MY FRIENDI'ma say goodbye today, cause you never know when
[Chorus w/ minor variation]
[Outro: DMX]Goodbye today, I'ma say goodbye todayGoin away hey (uhh) goodbye today, I'ma say goodbye today(It's okay) And I say (let us pray)Goodbye today (and I say) say goodbye todayGo on your way (and I say when you're, gone) I'ma say goodbye todayI'ma say goodbye today (gotta say before you move on) HEY!Yes (yeah!)I mean, this is life (yeah, say goodbye)We are born, to die, so LET ME FLY! (know what I mean)Let me fly, we are born, to die (be good){"Sometimes the pain is too much to bear" - [repeat to end of Outro]}Cause I'm in a better place ('til we meet again)I'm in a better place (I don't know what form)See you soon baby! (we'll meet again)Ha ha! .. (But we will meet again)...Spread your wings (they gon' shed a tear on this one!)Fly, I'll try not to cry, it'll be hardI just, miss, not havin you hereEven though I know you're in a better place!I just miss not havin you hereKinda selfish when you think about itThat's nature, that's lifeSpirit, never dies, as lessons begin
