Goodbye Forever
To my uncles Bam and Lil Man
It's easy to say hi, but its hard to say goodbye,
It's even harder to say goodbye when someone dies.
I did not cry, but that didn't mean he had to die
I said goodbye, and I didn't cry, Why?
Maybe it's because I know it's our destiny
Though people are locked up were out begging to be free
I truly don't know if that'll ever happen,
My uncles were what was up they were not has beens,
I may be young, but I knew what''s going on
For all of us one day they'll have to sing a sad song
Don't ask why, I'm dying inside
Because I didn't get a chance to say goodbye
I wish I could've said hi once more before he died
God takes good people away
To make us pay for what we did yesterday
So I just lay down and pray to God
Asking him to let me see another day
Let's sit and pray.
