Countin' trumpets on the wall firey flame will kill us all And I hear trumpets ringing in my head before I go to sleep Takes me back way back when we were young and we were friends Now I'm home alone smokin' cigarettes waitin' by the phone Sweet Virgina blue skies early mornin' sunrise I can see your spirit dancin' next to mine I know that you'll never be the same again We can just roll on down this road my friend I know that you'll never be just never be alone I know that you'll be there when I will say goodbye Hold on tight baby lean when I lean Both arms tight lady follow my lead Let your hair down feel it blow in the breeze I'm a' take you to a place that you'll never believe Riding on the wind disappear in the sky Never ask why spread wings and fly Sunbathe in the sunrays and dream Listening to Dave play and Stevie sing I know that you'll never be the same again We can just roll on down this road my friend I know that you'll never be just never be alone I know that you'll be there when I will say goodbye Countin' trumpets on the wall firey flame will kill us all And I hear trumpets ringing in my head before I go to sleep Takes me back way back when we were young and we were friends Now I'm home alone smokin' cigarettes waitin' by the phone Sweet Virgina blue skies early mornin' sunrise I can see your spirit dancin' next to mine I know that you'll never be the same again We can just roll on down this road my friend I know that you'll never be just never be alone I know that you'll be there when I will say goodbye |

Verse 1:
Please accept my apologies, I wonder what would have been. Would you have been a little angel or an angel of sin? Tom-boy running around, hanging with all the guys. Or a little tough boy with beautiful brown eyes. I paid for the murder before they determined the sex, choosing our life over your life meant your death. And you never got a chance to even open your eyes, sometimes I wonder as a fetus if you fought for your life. Would you have been a little genius? In love with math? Would you have played in your school clothes and made me mad? Would you have been a little rapper like your poppa The Piper? Would you have made me quit smoking by finding one of my lighters? I wonder about your skin tone and shape of your nose, and the way you would′ve laughed and talked fast or slow. I think about it every year, so I picked up a pen. Happy birthday, I love you for whoever you would′ve been. Happy Birthday Chorus: What I thought was a dream Make a wish Was as real as it seemed Happy birthday What I thought was a dream Make a wish Was as real as it seem I made a mistake Verse 2: I got a million excuses, as to why you died. And other people got their own reasons for homicide. Who′s to say it would′ve worked and who′s to say I wouldn′t have I was young and struggling, but old enough to be a dad. The fear of being my father has never disappeared, I ponder it frequently while I′m sippin′ on my beer. My vision of a family was artificial and fake so when it came time to create, I made a mistake. But now you got a little brother, maybe it′s really you. Maybe you really forgave us knowing we was confused. Maybe, every time that he smiles it′s you proudly knowing that your father′s doing the right thing now. I′ll never tell a woman what to do with her body, but if she don′t love children, then we can′t party. I think about it every year, so I picked up a pen. Happy birthday, I love you for whoever you would′ve been. Happy birthday Chorus (2X) Bridge:(2X) And from the Heavens to the womb to the Heavens again. From the ending to the ending, never got to begin. Maybe one day we can meet face to face, in a place without time and space. Happy birthday. Chorus |

""Someday""
[Chorus] Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know Someday we gonna dance with those lions Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin' [Verse 1] They tellin' me it's all good just wait You know you're gonna be there someday Sippin' on Jim Beam ok Gotta get these things one day Till then do another line you know Searching for that other high Stop or I gotta steal then steal Kill or I'm gonna be killed I got a sack in my pocket Conscious yellin' drop it You know we're gonna lose it someday And we tryin' to hold it all together but the devil is too clever so I'm gonna die you gonna die we gonna die Someday one day I said [Chorus] Someday we gonna rise up on the wind you know Someday we gonna dance with those lions Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin' [Verse 2] Try to lie but it ain't me Ain't me Try to look but I can't see Can't stop right now cause I'm too far and I can't keep goin' cause it's too hard In the day in the night it's the same thing On the field on the block it's the same game On the real if you stop then it's no pain but if you can't feel pain then it's no gain Rearrange and you change and it's all bad and you try to maintain but you fall back And you crawl and you slip and you slide down Wanna make it to the top better start now So I hold my soul and I die hard All alone in the night in the graveyard Someday one day I'm gonna be free and they won't try to kill me for being me Hey someday [Chorus] Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know Someday we gonna dance with those lions Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin' If you know how this is Gonna see it's not that easy Don't stop get it till it's done From where you are or have begun I said keep on try a little harder to see everything you need to be Believe in your dreams That you see when you're asleep [Chorus] Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know Someday we gonna dance with those lions Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin' |
