Chris Patrick Screaming At The Sky
[Verse]
Granny voice echo from the seatin' in the clouds
Her vocal tone more clear since I stopped reachin' for the loud
It's crazy how much time passed from that period to now
The growth is evident, I hope how I appear still make her proud
Tattoos on my arm, my neck I inked since I left college
Initials from a name atop my finger to pay homage
I never told nobody, but I haven't cut my locks ‘cause you had locks
So when I touch on mine, if feel like you beside us
Obituary of you in the consolе of my whip
My good luck charm is sittin' side and guards against the risk
From Jersеy to LA, your spirit shotgun every time I take that trip
Can't even sell it if I wanted to
Sentimental value get appraised, can't put a cost on you
Yearn for days a Bible verse got sent to help through obstacles
Rush to sleep each night, I hope my dreams might let me talk to you
I'm speakin' to your grave, prayin' that dirt might move around and prove you listenin'
Readin' through the scriptures, find inside that you here visitin'
Book 1 Corinthians, chapter 2, God came to the weak with fear and tremblin'
Partially get scared, my shot with music slowly dwindlin'
Told me bein' brave requires faith and pain start diggin' in
Fought to keep your memories when Alzheimer's was kickin' in
Role model for sure, you held your bravery 'til the bitter end
They told me when you died, you smiled gracefully while givin' in
I know your walk was potent up the runway
I hate church, but tune in to feel close to you on Sundays
This pain hurt and processing's like drivin' down a one-way
Once you take that leap, the only exit's on the other side
Done tryna run away from pressures of a cluttered mind
Therapeutic convos that I tried to kill will come alive
Shoulda chose to visit, but instead I said “Another time”
“Another time” hit different when you peep there ain't no other time
Ask myself, “What would I have done if one of my brothers died?”
Nothin' hurt me more than havin' to watch and hear my mother cry
Your genes strong, I see your soul each time I wipe my mother's eyes
Knowin' you, forgiveness second nature when you see me
A graceful angel watchin' over from a different view
Hope them courtside seats in Heaven, ain't tryna break your bank
Promise I'm gon' cut you back soon as I get to you
A dog of mine crossed over and I'm scared that he's alone
As a favor, can you be there as his soul transitions through?
Can't nobody in this world, alive or dead, replace your heart
Play your voice before a show because you know I'm missin' you
You know I'm missin'
[Outro]
