Before I Go

Oh there's the park, we used to
Kick the ball around and sneak home after dark, runnin
Scuffin up our shoes till we needed new sizes
Least that was til they built the new high rises, time flies it's
A crying shame though I don't got time for pain
Ain't too many rules to the game: stay in your lane and, uh,
Stupid games, stupid prizes, waste your time and you're finished
Every minute a child's minin a diamond

I thought I'd walk in the same streets till I turned gray
Take our kids to the same school on their first day
But you don't got be an analyst to count up the challenges
Pops locked up mom's on dialysis
Only steady work around here is to hold heat
And I'd quicker meet my end than make ends meet, so
I really wish that I could keep that promise I made
Guess God's laughin at the plans that we laid

I'm sending you this message, would you please pick up your phone
I tried to come in person but they said you weren't at home
Time got away from me and soon I'm gonna have to leave
But there's one thing you should know
I know I told you that time that I would never leave your side
But this could be the last time that I will ever see your eyes
Things got away from me and so I'm beggin baby please
See me once before I go, see me once before I go

I know I told you that time that I would never leave your side
But this could be the last time that I will ever see your eyes
Things got away from me and so I'm beggin baby please
See me once before I go, see me once before I go
I know I told you that time that I would never leave your side
But this could be the last time that I will ever see your eyes
Things got away from me and so I'm beggin baby please
See me once before I go, see me once before I go
