While Were Here
While we all are here
We do all but care
Dancing in the bars, sipping on beer
Cooking up dust...
until the dust gets cleared
Ole Hoop had his share
Had a little of that...
and that there
we all have a purpose
That isn't quite clear
Until it's accomplished
Which leads us here...
Remember me at my best
Leave me to rest
...I hear him at peace,
At peace at last
Trece my dear,
Says you've always been there
From the moment she arrived
yall been connected by hip
The love of a father
The love for his daughter
Conquers all... and last forever
Rejoice in glory
And always remember
Time may pass
But family lasts forever
Carry on with grace
Share my presence
Let the world know
Hoop let em have it
Steady forward the journey Continues
It's not not how you died
... but what you lived through
