wawi - requiem. lyrics

[verse]

i hope you hear me
i shed tears for the days that you was near me
my greatest fear is you’ll probably forget me
i’m breakin’ down severely
and clearly without you here
i’m merely sombre and weary
you’re every once in a blue moon
i lost you too soon
who’s gonna cheer me?
and i heard the news through my mom
then fell to my knees
crushed and teary
gran, please say hi to god
i pray that i will manage to cope and overcome
pray to god the damage i caused was not too much
but maybe i, the menace, till push comes to shove
will write you a message
daily in hopes that maybe the lord will make you peep ’em and read
’cause part of me refuses to comprehend and believe
that you done left me
’cause honestly, gran’, i want you to see
that i’m a grown man, and if i’m not i’m tryin’ to be
can’t hide the fact that i’m dyin’ inside, dealin’ with grief
can’t take the pain and all, the shame and all
my heart’s debris
ain’t seen my pops cry
so i don’t wear my heart on my sleeve
man, and week after week
i try hard not to weep
but one night in the v, somethin’ happened to me
father, son, and spirit dreamy vision came in my sleep
told me the greatest act of love is probably settin’ you free
but you should know somethin’
i met me this cute gem, got my soul buzzin’
she classy and full of respect, grounded in truth
and got me a quesadilla, d_mn, i love when she cook, gran’
she soft spoken
trust issues and trauma, she found me so broken
bold and beautiful, swear i see her in slow motion
down the aisle for this black man
but you won’t be here to see it
the same way i missed your sending off
i might go ballistic at any moment
‘fore you passed, know you was my biggest fan, but dead or alive, know that i’ll love you in every lifetime
excuse me, gran’, but why did you have to die on me?
grief and misery pile on me
nowadays in the nighttime
fear haulin’
picture this black man distraught, and tears fallin’
awful and gray
dormant and drained
made it a point to leave a void in me
please pardon the blame
but at the end of the day, thank you for the pain
[outro]

’cause now my days are longer
but maybe the pain ought to make me stronger
krip!
yeah

- wawi
