Golden Memories
Golden Memories
Brother I wouldn’t pronounce you to the world
I pause out your conversation when you held your little girl
In let you promise the sun to the water
And as you told god you would give life to grantee chances for your first daughter
Sister I wouldn’t judge you
When you chose to lay a woman next to you
Remembering the walks we used to take
At my bus stop you used to wait
For me and the books you used to read
And conversations we share and the stories you could tell
Sister you sure can sell
But you sold me these golden memories
Mother some hard arguments
Was rip though with negative comments
But as Shirley say what you given me no charge
If you want to become who you truly are
Let life see you working hard
One time you broke down
From words I conceive
Now I know I shouldn’t never said no matter how much I believe
All these hard times I wanted to blame you because you was the reason
It was hard for me to bereave
Now I know for life there are no fees
I thank The Lord for you and these golden memories
Father you were there for me at the start
Troubles would take you into the waters
As I continue to swim
I would see you floating
But you would never reach me
But your departure or your absence
Is what question me
Until I finish it will be unknown
Someday I know your reasons would come along
Until I shall take time and hope to see
Hope you wouldn’t only be a image of a golden memory
