Bouquet

Daddy read your letter mama
Things that you said hit close to home
Sister couldn't stop dad from crying
20 years together now his alone
So all alone
Grand mother Wadsworth was in the parlor
I remember coats tears in the hall
I was to young to understand it
But i remember flowers remember it all
Tears in the hall

I remember blue water
The day you sailed away
I remember the smell of the funeral
Bouquet

Yeah yeah
It's been a long time so i want to say hi
Make another toast celebrate your life
Release the balloons mural candle light
Praying one day that we'll reunite
Like aye
Through heart break and cry's
Hope you dancing with the angles in the sky
Singing hallelujah in the heavens choir
Somewhere in the universe constellation lights
Could of been a son daughter husband or a wife
Could of been o d could of been a suicide
Could of been a stray bullet hit your cousin in a drive by
Hold your nana's hand when its there time
Give a bouquet no guilt no shame
Show them that you're strong to carry on there name
Everything is alright everything is okay
Even though you sailed away the love will never fade

I remember blue water
The day you sailed away
I remember the smell of the funeral
Bouquet

Yeah yeah
Its my birth right to grab a mic
Tell you about the pain and struggles in my life
So you can sell it for gain and capitalize
Only give me percentage of my worth and price
Doesn't matter of the money when you're laying in the grave
Always want to over work you and keep you like a slave
To keep the family happy and make sure the bills are paid
The way the cancer took my pappy man it really was a shame
Old friends be dying from the violent or the dope
A couple of them with my daddy at the end of their rope
Different funeral every week man its hard to ever cope
Feeling like sinking boat living in a broken home
Me and my moms were straight were right
Better back off cause family shouldn't fight
Uncle Sam feel the same grandma said to make it right
We're suppose to love each other how come we ain't tight

Sister never stop crying
Me i didn't know why
Brother went back to college
And daddy soon after died

I remember blue water
The day you sailed away
I remember the smell of the funeral
Bouquet
