DMX - Mills текст песни

F/ faith evans

[dmx]

I know that my savior lives

And at the end, he will stand on this earth

My flesh may be destroyed, yet from this body, I will see god

Yes, I will see him for myself - and I long for that moment

Grandma, I really miss you and it aint been the same

I drop a tear when i, hear yo name

Mariella holloway, why you gotta be so far away?

Used to say, "dont worry, its gon be okay"

But it aint - its like when you left, you took the lord witchu

Why couldnt I come when he came to get you?

Damn I really miss you - I had to say it again

I remember the time when I was like ten

Crept up in the neighbors yard, yeah, bein hard headed

You told me I would get it - you said it!

And boy did I get it, but after you spanked me, you hugged me

Kissed me on my forehead, told me that you love me

And I saw, that it hurt you, more than it hurt me

I thought - how bad could this hurt be? I know now

Thats why its only done out of love

What I wouldnt give for one mo hug, from grandma

[chorus: faith evans]

Baby its gon be okay (she used to tell me that)

Baby its gon be okay (I really miss hearin)

Baby its gon be okay (she used to tell me that)

Baby its gon be okay (I really miss hearin)

[dmx]

What Im about to say a couple of family members is gon hate me

But ima let you know whats been goin on lately

Now you know since you left, a lot of things witcho kids done changed

Yeah jackies still crazy, dont know whats up with james

Aint seen jerry in a while, you know he walk like you

And renees back in jail, you know she talk like you

Riculahs(? ) doin real good now, she workin

Rhondas still runnin around, trickin, jerkin

Buckeyes buggin, he done lost his mind

And jarvis? back out of jail, doin fine

Kylie? he done changed, it aint all about self

As for my father.. well, thats somethin else

But thats my dog, he hold his grandmother down

My great grandmother, makin a lot of trips out of town

But thats a good thing, and if I could only hear you sing

Once more, oh lord, the comfort it would bring

[chorus]

[dmx]

You left behind a mother (and) eleven kids (and) eleven grandkids

And since then, two of yo grandkids done had kids

They had a boy named tacoma, xaviers brother, thats right

Xaviers means you a great grandmother

I thank you for the best times of my life

I thank you for when you first met her, accepted and lovin my wife

I thank you for those sunday dinners, they were vital

I thank you for my - life, I thank you for the bible

I thank you for the songs that you sing in the mornin

(amazing grace..) while Im yawnin

I thank you for the two beatings you gave me

Cause I know somewhere along the line

The lesson I learned from the two beatings saved me

And when you died I cried like a baby, I begged the lord to take me

Cause no one else could give me what you gave me

But life like everything comes to an end

I pray I go to heaven to see you again - amen

[chorus] - repeat 2x

[faith evans]

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me

I once was lost, but now Im found

Was blind, but now I see, yeahhh
