Sing About Me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me when I'm gone
Tell me that you will sing about me
Tell me that you will sing about me
Tell me that you will sing about me when I'm gone
Something walked across my mind
Screaming at my conscious high
Written in a question rhyme
What's the point? Why even try?
You've been cryin' over rivers...
Been cryin' over rivers for months
Why's the price of chasing fame
Dollars someone else can gain
All that's left is pocket change
And Bill's the only name u made
I'm tryna see the lesson
Tryna learn the lessons... I can't
But when the dark covers me
I hope the world remembers me
That I was free free to be me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me when I'm gone
VERSE 2
Keep blaming dad for breakin' hearts
Mine before the beat could start
Bet I'll find the missing parts
Cause Momma needs a brand new carI promise that Im working
Promise that I'll work hard for her
And if I die up on this stage
Tell my girl I love you babe
Probably should've quit the game
Now I'm by the river banks
I'm cryin' you a river
Cryin' over rivers for you
But when the dark covers me
I hope the world remembers me
That I was free that's how I plan to leave
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me when I'm gone
I hear them say...
You got this, don't worry, don't worry
You got this, I got you, don't worry, don't worry
I hear them sing
You got this, don't worry, don't worry
You got this, I got you, don't worry, don't worry
I hear them say yeah
You got this, don't worry, don't worry
You got this, I got you, don't worry, don't worry
I hear them say that what you do is not in vain no
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me when I'm gone
I figure that this bumpy road
Is worth it if my stories told
The struggles on the way to gold
A fable never getting old
It keeps me going on ya know
It keeps me going on til I'm gone
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me when I'm gone
Tell me that you will sing about me
Tell me that you will sing about me
Tell me that you will sing about me when I'm gone
Something walked across my mind
Screaming at my conscious high
Written in a question rhyme
What's the point? Why even try?
You've been cryin' over rivers...
Been cryin' over rivers for months

I hope the world remembers me
That I was free free to be me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me
Hopin' that they write songs about me when I'm gone
