Goodbye to You (feat. Dot Rotten)

[00:08.33] Hey, can you hear me
[00:14.27] I just wanted to let you know hmm
[00:22.07] I hope you can hear what I write to you
[00:23.40] How could I say goodbye to you
[00:25.02] When I'm a life that came out
[00:26.68] Of the inside of a life
[00:27.68] That was inside of you
[00:28.77] I gotta respect the way you provided food
[00:30.34] For the whole fam
[00:31.44] You came over a moon rush
[00:32.54] Supporting a mar jays old man
[00:33.57] Cold double 8, 8 kids, bare wheels, plus racists
[00:35.16] Full of hatred in your own plant
[00:36.60] 3 jobs in a day, rest in life that you working
[00:39.28] But you were never stressed free
[00:40.83] Just locked in a cage slaving
[00:41.97] They said they were gold in the pavements
[00:43.50] But you came and saw the road to amazement
[00:45.18] Broke your heart
[00:46.28] But still you were prone to last
[00:47.32] And your sorrow was over fast
[00:48.37] I hope your listening right
[00:49.71] I still think of you every Sunday
[00:52.45] No one can top your chicken and rice
[00:53.75] Even through the darkest times
[00:55.35] You held us all up
[00:56.48] Cause your vision was bright
[00:57.57] I knew your strength was your wisdom inside
[00:58.85] You never let anyone see your heartache
[01:00.78] You just got on with it
[01:02.37] Anyone tells me that they knew you
[01:04.08] Said you were beautiful
[01:05.13] And your words you would stand strong with it
[01:06.13] Cause they were like warmth
[01:07.59] On a winter night
[01:08.37] But I was just too young to go on with it
[01:09.42] And there something's I could try to do
[01:11.28] But it's an impossible task for me
[01:13.13] To even try and say goodbye to you
[01:14.46] I couldn't do that
[01:15.51] I owe my life to you
[01:16.67] And of the pieces of my soul
[01:20.44] Because I need a sign
[01:21.76] I hope this pain will heal in time
[01:24.16] You know I never want to be alone ohh
[01:29.21] I can see the stars as a cold wind greets the air
[01:33.10] And will you think of me up there
[01:37.04] Can I say goodbye to you
[01:43.23] And paint the stains of the teardrops down my face
[01:46.98] Or feel the chill of your warm embrace
[01:50.42] Can I say goodbye to you ohh
[01:57.93] I think you if only I was younger
[01:59.24] With the knowledge of things that I know now
[02:00.83] I would be by your side when you needed me
[02:02.50] Instead of asking you "Nan can I go out"
[02:04.49] Standing in a road with the gangs that I know now
[02:06.30] Everyone's missing you loads
[02:07.87] Jessica's grown up
[02:08.97] Warren, Lauren, and Alex are fine
[02:10.54] And I'm living with hope
[02:11.34] It's been a while since I've seen C and the mouths
[02:12.94] I miss seeing and being a family
[02:14.33] And us agreeing with smiles
[02:15.97] How it used to be as a child
[02:17.58] But as time goes by the bridge seems longer
[02:19.60] Family problems have never been funny
[02:21.54] In my heart the only one that dissed me was Sonia
[02:23.41] She took all our inheritance money
[02:24.77] Left the rest of us to pick up the pieces
[02:26.67] I never forgive the way she betrayed us
[02:28.28] There ain't a big enough reason
[02:29.68] Before I sell out my fam I'll be giving up breathing
[02:31.53] But I guess that everyone's different
[02:33.41] Or should I say no one's perfect
[02:35.33] She had happiness in front of her
[02:36.91] But chose to ride the wave that no one's surfing
[02:38.53] Since you gone the foundations crumbled
[02:40.13] So building it back up is my next step
[02:42.04] I got all the bricks and the cement but it's hard
[02:43.65] When it's done I don't know what to expect
[02:45.51] So give me the strength that I need
[02:47.16] To perform this task make it right I must do
[02:48.48] And I ask cause I trust you
[02:50.66] It goes way beyond a song when I say I love you
[02:53.40] And of the pieces of my soul because I need a sign
[02:57.97] Hope this pain will heal in time
[03:00.36] You know I never wanna
[03:02.99] Be aloneeeeee
[03:05.65] I can see the stars as a cold the wind greets the air
[03:09.12] And will you think of me up there
[03:12.62] Can I say goodbye to you
[03:19.18] And paint the stains of the teardrops down my face
[03:22.97] Or feel the chill of your warm embrace
[03:25.94] Can I say goodbye to you ohh
[03:33.67] It's just for now so I should hush
[03:37.75] I'll never get enough I'll see you when I see you but
[03:40.64] I miss you ohh how I miss you
[03:44.90] It's just for now so I should hush
[03:51.66] I'll never get enough I'll see you when I see you but
[03:54.81] I miss you ohh how I miss you
[04:01.47] There ain't enough words to describe how sorry I am
[04:03.34] For the pain that I caused
[04:04.19] Sorry for when I stuck up for own blood
[04:06.01] We were young he said I was raped by this broad
[04:07.94] And for the day police came to the door
[04:09.53] I'm sorry for being such a bad youth
[04:11.11] Stealing from your purse and making you mourn
[04:13.06] I never been able to say this before
[04:14.66] 'Cause I was so inconsiderate
[04:15.66] You love me unconditionally
[04:17.31] And I took advantage of it like a idiot
[04:19.17] Not seeing the pure soul that I was living with
[04:21.02] I really hope that you can forgive me
[04:22.50] You going away was a punishment
[04:24.54] But I won't let go I'm holding you with me
[04:26.13] But I still fight the emotions within me
[04:28.38] You see the stars as the cold wind greets the air
[04:31.60] And will you think of me up there
[04:35.51] Can I say goodbye to you
[04:41.71] And paint the stains of the teardrops down your face
[04:45.43] Feel the chill of your warm embrace
[04:49.22] Can I say goodbye to you
[04:55.11] I can see the stars as a cold wind greets the air
[04:59.19] And will you think of me up there
[05:02.66] Can I say goodbye to you
[05:09.07] And paint the stains of the teardrops down my face
[05:12.54] Or feel the chill of your warm embrace
[05:16.51] Can I say goodbye to you ohh
[05:23.28]
