Yo, big bro, just wanna let you know I miss you
It's all good though
I'm leaning on God, but here's how I feel about it, so..
Seventeen at a time in misery, spiritually blind
To the fact that this was more than a plot against you
But a major attack on us all
So while I played in the living room, you strutted down the hall
Had I known this'd be my last time seeing you
I would've stopped you, hugged you and said I love you
But there was nothing I could do in your mind you already knew
Fifth of vodka, thirty-thirty loaded
A few minutes later, you'd have thought the house exploded
I remember like yesterday, October 30th, that's the date
That you decided life wasn't worth living another day
So choosing the wrong way
You put that gun to your head and pulled the trigger
What were you thinking before the bullet left the chamber
Didn't even leave a letter explaining
Why you blasted yourself, couldn't see past yourself
If you were in trouble, why didn't you just ask for help
I don't understand the pain that you felt, the cause you were dealt
But these are questions I have to ask myself
Wish I could go back and just tell you I'm here
I wish I, wish I could take back all the pain and the fear
I wish I, wish I could tell you that this wasn't the end
I wish I, could tell you that I love you again
I wish I, wish I could go back and just tell you I'm here
I wish I, wish I could take back all the pain and the fear
I wish I, wish I could tell you that this wasn't the end
I wish I, could tell you that I love you again
You might not think that you can make it, but face it
I mean faith it, believe in God, remain patient
When waiting, not faking, just replacing the old way of thinking
Redefine your mind, precept on precept
And line after line, God's Word refines
Just like gold in the fire, seven times over serving
Jehovah will blow your mind, it starts by you changing your mind
Stop straddling the line, any branch not connected to the vine
Will surely die, it's committing suicide and no one can hide
You might as well confide in Him who gave you life
As I stand here today, I say it's time to fight
Don't let situations decide how you live your life
When the road gets tough, just look up to the sky
He catches every tear that you cry that falls from your eyes
So look to Him who sits on high, He has the power to change the night
The blue skies, when the moon goes down, He makes the sun rise
So dry your eyes
Wish I could go back and just tell you I'm here
I wish I, wish I could take back all the pain and the fear
I wish I, wish I could tell you that this wasn't the end
I wish I, could tell you that I love you again
Wish I could go back and just tell you I'm here
I wish I, wish I could take back all the pain and the fear
I wish I, wish I could tell you that this wasn't the end
I wish I, could tell you that I love you again
If you need to hear it, there is someone out there that loves you
His name is Jesus Christ
You don't have to take that route
As a matter of fact, there's other people around you
That care, family members
And if there's no family around you
Trust me, there's somebody
