[00:00.00]RIP - Kero One
[00:12.64]I was 16 when the bell on the phone rings
[00:16.22]It's my homie from church an ex d**e fiend
[00:19.25]A little older wore his heart on his shoulder
[00:21.89]A hiphop head so we connected on the totem
[00:24.97]Back then I'd kick verses and he'd be on the scrotum
[00:27.95]I wish he were around to
[00:29.12]Hear these verses that I wrote Him
[00:30.91]Just to clear the air
[00:32.32]Confusion and misquotings
[00:33.91]A good kid with black
[00:35.22]Clouds following his motions
[00:36.89]Like" hear ye hear ye"
[00:38.65]But they don't hear me
[00:39.84]The headline I've read for
[00:41.13]The tenth time its eerie
[00:43.34]"Three dead including
[00:44.49]Sunday school teacher
[00:45.91]An ex d**e fiend
[00:46.87]Turned extroverted church leader"
[00:49.36]Is this real my hairs raised suddenly
[00:51.74]I'm drowning in emotion
[00:53.37]While shivers swim subtly
[00:55.35]I read on an affair that ends tragic
[00:58.00]Teachers pleads for life
[00:59.10]Down the barrel of a magnum
[01:00.56]Then point blank shot
[01:02.03]Dead together with his lover
[01:03.73]Before the lovers husband
[01:05.04]Took his own life from him
[01:06.97]My eyes turned red
[01:08.26]Welled up a watered gaze
[01:10.00]From hurt fear and let
[01:11.53]Down in lots of ways
[01:13.00]God Why would you
[01:14.38]Allow this if you save
[01:15.81]When evil lurked within
[01:17.12]Why did my homie disobey
[01:18.94]We got one life is it ok to be afraid
[01:21.95]Many don't have that option
[01:23.57]Stomping through this maze
[01:26.05]It is ok to be afraid many don't have that option
[01:29.54]That's so we mourn today
[01:33.70]Rest in peace
[01:36.36]Here one day then gone away
[01:40.49](Forever ever ever ever)
[01:42.72]Things will never be the same
[01:46.64](It will never be the same)
[01:48.02]Here one day (Here one day)
[01:50.94]Then gone away
[01:52.65](Forever ever ever ever)
[01:55.08]And all that remain is the pain
[02:00.71]I remember her soft skin and her caress
[02:03.90]The mistakes that I made and her grace
[02:05.76]When I confessed like politics me
[02:08.28]And her it was complex but all the stains
[02:10.40]Would wash away each time our minds connect
[02:12.61]We had history old school like a cassette
[02:15.69]Together we opened doors
[02:17.17]Explored she knew me best
[02:18.60]I imagined us forever ever ever
[02:21.72]But now I wish I never met her
[02:23.73]Why won't this feeling letup
[02:25.22]I can't forget her staring at our empty bed
[02:27.67]The silence is screaming at me so
[02:29.22]I stay awake instead and in the sheets
[02:31.97]There's rooms for extra legs on my phone no SMS
[02:35.15]Missed calls or messages from tying the knot
[02:38.23]To farewells crying
[02:39.73]My stomach twisted up in
[02:41.05]Knots like Bear Grylls tied them
[02:43.19]The start and end it comes full sphere
[02:45.99]From the cradle to the grave
[02:47.32]I wish you were here
[02:48.33]Here one day
[02:50.98]Then gone away
[02:52.22](Forever ever ever ever)
[02:54.61]Things will never be the same
[02:58.50](It will never be the same)
[03:00.36]Here one day (Here one day)
[03:03.30]Then gone away
[03:04.52](Forever ever ever ever)
[03:07.31]And all that remain is the pain
[03:12.82]It's been a little while
[03:14.16]Since I seen your face
[03:16.26]Getting kinda hard to move on
[03:18.13]But the pain is motivation
[03:19.99]And I'm doing my job
[03:21.97]Running innovation know the song
[03:24.58]It's been a little while
[03:26.10]Since I seen your face
[03:28.03]Getting kinda hard to move on
[03:30.44]But the pain is motivation
[03:32.72]Though its frustrating
[03:34.08]You don't know what you have until it's gone
[03:39.44]When it's gone
[03:42.11]When it's gone away gone away
