Released: November 26, 2019

Featuring: Point of Realization

[Intro: Add-2 and Point of Realization]
Thought you gon’ stay
Please don’t leave
Now you gone away
How you gonna go
Thought you gonna stay
Please don’t leave
Now you gone away

Mama told me pray if you want it babe
You gon’ make a way when it ain’t
You don’t gotta smile if you don’t wanna
So the pain will go away

[Verse 1: Add-2]
It’s hard to let go the shit that hurt me the most
I’ve been keeping it close and keeping it guarded
They keep on turning my people to ghosts
Waiting for something to break but seems that my spirit was broke
Don’t send me no scriptures or quotes... no
Somebody killed my cousin Bookie in a parking lot
No silver linings when CNN saw us crying
They hugging my auntie Sheila as tight as they can while seeing her suffer in silence
Seeing her posting his picture closest to seeing him alive
I... wonder what we here for
Wishing we could live more
Everything is tempor-
-Rary then we buried, scary
Tried to help the hood but then they killed the kid I mentored
Dear [?], I wish I could’ve protect you
I hope in those final moments you know you were something special
Wear tears in my eyes, they playing the songs we recorded
‘Member when all the joy [?] ‘fore yo casket is closing

[Chorus: Add-2 and Point of Realization]
Please don’t go
Thought you gon’ stay
Please don’t leave
Now you gone away
How you gonna go
Thought you gonna stay
Please don’t leave
Now you gone away

[Bridge: Add-2 and Point of Realization]
I’ve been waiting for this day to come
Eyes been open, hope I see the sun
If I should die before I wake
Pray the Lord my soul to take
Dry your eyes, please don’t cry for me

[Verse 2: Add-2]
I saw your picture, I miss you, I wish that you were still here
I hear your voice in my head, it tell me to quiet my fears
I ‘member when I was younger, you singing yes Jesus loves me
Love how you folded my hands and my name was all in your prayers
Dear God, take my grandma and hold her close
I know she can’t live forever, I know she gotta go
I’m sitting right by her side when they gave her hospice
They told me I couldn’t feed her, that shit was killing me softly
No healing from me, dementia remind you it’s me
Watched our memories leave then watched you physically leave
Sometimes I barely could breathe, Granny I’m feeling so weak
Drink every day of the week, Black boy learning to grieve
Then I got a call from Common’s mom that calmed me down when I was sad once
You got too many good times to focus on the sad ones
I keep on hoping that you visit
I keep on talking to your spirit

[Chorus: Add-2 and Point of Realization]
Grandma I miss you
Please don’t leave
How you gonna go
Thought you gon’ stay
Please don’t leave
