He never got to finish what he started here

He was out to change the world but he forgot himself

A couple burdens and addictions that he struggled with

He was friends with everybody, that was part of it

Too many paths to split

He wished he was a superhero so he authored it

He was good at giving glory to who authored this

More than passion for the music, it was purpose to him

More than accolades or money, it was therapeutic

Singing 'bout a lot of things he wouldn't speak upon like

How he makes his mama cry 'cause he ain't never home or

How his girl will be on edge when he don't show he care

He was there but never there like he weren't really in himself

I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know

I'd put everything I own down for him

I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know

I'd put everything I own down for

He was gone too soon

Alas the good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah yeah

He was gone too soon

And I realize I'm talking 'bout my own ghost, yeah yeah

He was gone too soon

Alas the good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah yeah

He was gone too soon

And I realize I'm talking 'bout my own ghost

In and out of his relationship with God and Jesus

Lukewarm, it looked more like he just got religious

The best at giving advice but never taking it with him

The best at listening but never really paid attention

He was good for something, never passed a judgment

He gave everyone attention, never made assumptions

When he stood up he made sure that he would stand for something

Express himself with a mode of language, left people wondering

All he urged for was for people to find peace in something

'Cause he was piecing something

Tryna build a world around him just so he could leave 'em something

Open doors with God of course but such a broken cord

Always rational but never satisfied

I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know

I'd put everything I own down for him

I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know

I'd put everything I own down for

I wish I had another chance

Already given 23, the burn is over 30 degrees

I wish I had another chance

'Cause I just wanna dance and go through with all my plans

I wish I had another chance

Already given 23, the burn is over 30 degrees

I wish I had another chance

'Cause I just wanna dance and go through with all my plans

He was gone too soon

Alas the good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah yeah

He was gone too soon

And I realize I'm talking 'bout my own ghost, yeah yeah

He was gone too soon

Alas the good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah yeah

He was gone too soon

And I realize I'm talking 'bout my own ghost

Don't waste your day

Don't waste your day

Don't waste your day
