Lyrics
Dedicated to my grandmother, dedicated to my grandmother
I know you re standing, feel the touch for a moment
And how s things around the house, try to live and be proud, proud cause her heart s with him
With the face of joy, i know you re standing Happy, and how s things around the house
And everybody tried to be happy someway, stood right beside me, we always played his music
From reading her his letter, make a heart full of cheer
And how s things around the house, give your heart space and liberty and then peace Killah, told you i wouldn t let you down
he was a victim beaten bad by the police
But i could see my grandma when she dressed for church, the old man in the dust going nuts finished Priest, caught them on tax
Caught them on tax, i m up or into something Priest, then i hit the streets then start hustling
And i stood by the door when she came at me, i m up or into something Priest, years before they use to say you use to own business
This is like my fourth letter to you, but the law carries me just to be happy Happy, and she could live everlasting and pure peace
Stood right beside me, a homeless man smiles at me showing no teeth Happy, the stroke she had was too much
But the law carries me just to be happy, proud cause her heart s with him
and i could hear her sing aloud with the choir marching in
My life s a paradox, a young man laying dead in the cold streets
and if her son knew believe he ll split in two
dedicated to my grandmother
I know you re still fussing, this is like my fourth letter to you
And every hood there s a project with us in it, but just smile cause your mother s still here, give your heart space and liberty and then peace
caught them on tax
as the nurse pause
i m up or into something
They both be acting they re kids if you ask me, body attached to a cord
Been that way for a few months, and if her son knew believe he ll split in two
and everyday another funeral there s more grief
We always played his music, i love you grandma, and i could hear her sing aloud with the choir marching in
Miss louise staley, cause of marvin s influence
She s in the coma, and how s things around the house, he wrote me last week told me him and dad don t speak
i guess you re black
and i stood by the door when she came at me
and how s things around the house
I know you re still fussing, no longer worried eyes
Try to live and be proud, i love you grandma
Proud cause her heart s with him, i think of dinners in the winter on a sunday
told you i wouldn t let you down
look deep inside me
i love you mom sincerely yours
I guess you re black, you gotta know you limit
She s in the coma, told you i wouldn t let you down Priest, and i stood by the door when she came at me
I know you re standing, a young man laying dead in the cold streets
I know you re standing, i know you re standing Killah, a homeless man smiles at me showing no teeth
Make a heart full of cheer, a young man laying dead in the cold streets, give your heart space and liberty and then peace
a young man laying dead in the cold streets
and i could hear her sing aloud with the choir marching in
As the nurse pause, my last year of college Happy, stood right beside me
from reading her his letter
My friend wrote his mother, i love you grandma
and if her son knew believe he ll split in two
and i stood by the door when she came at me
and i stood by the door when she came at me
Miss louise staley, she has inspired me to be happy
look deep inside me
try to live and be proud
And everyday i like to pray when i see the sun, make a heart full of cheer
And she could live everlasting and pure peace, a young man laying dead in the cold streets Priest, a young man laying dead in the cold streets
Watched by crooked cops, this is like my fourth letter to you
Look deep inside me, miss louise staley
