What You Would Say Lyrics

Yea!

This for Everybody That Ever Lost Somebody Uh!

Just To Keep It Soulful, yea

Three! Two!

Verse 1:

One thing about me, try to be a life changer

But its not in my nature- to simply assume

The way a person acts- thinks- reacts cuz everybody different- got they own groove

They own style- but little things make em’ similar

From one individual to the other- like what I heard- many times before

Which made me start to think- insecure

I always think of my dead- but I never thought of em’ in heaven What was runnin’ through they head

What they think bout- how I live my life- how I present my speech & my motzie alike

So I start to ponder- mind went to wander- of my fam’s thoughts through the pearly gates days

If they’re proud, if now they happy with the Man I’m becoming- I wonder what they’d say, but

Chorus 4X:

If You Were Here, I Know What You Would Say (Hey)

Verse 2:

See, there’s not many people I keep close

Because I never been the kind to have most

Popularity, population- around me at all times and locations

Type to be alone- except wit my fam & Grandpop at home

I tend to lean toward- the old & the wise

Like grandpop got those sayings stickin’ in my mind

Like the whistle of slaves is clean through time

Take none for face value- read between lines

Stand by your morals- never compromise

When it comes to God- and your family tides

All that I say is for all ears & eyes

Directed to the young & hungry that despise

Petitions to wallow- kids of tomorrow Leave the second generation- impatient from the sorrow

Where the sunsets- it rises somewhere else

Never decide to jeopardize your health

Don’t be jealous of the evil- God always takes care of his own people

But hell’s like chips- eventually you gonna have to pay the piper- for the times you trip

And the good die young like Syleena and Aliyah- so you must remember next day’s never promised dear


Chorus 4X:

If You Were Here, I Know What You Would Say (Hey)

Verse 3:

Time’s a funny thing, but holds so much power

It can take us at any day & any hour

It tells how long these memories last

Before age & experience makes them pass

It allows us to grow wiser- or happier

From how much we spent with them

Laughing, crying, fighting & high 5ing

Fallin’- ballin’- stallin’ but still risin’

The good & the bad- when life was well rounded

When they bought you back- when you were off balance

When they told you truth- that hurt to the core

But later in your time- it made you secure

I don’t know much about the afterlife, and I think its safe to say neither do you

But when it get to remembering & pondering & wondering

The thoughts of yours too

Just remember they personality- the way they loved you

And set your soul at ease

it won’t be a surprise- or doubt in my mind

you can find in ya heart the words that they’d speak

Chorus 4X:

If You Were Here, I Know What You Would Say (Hey) 8X
