For the loved one's we loose I wish,I wish,I wish (To every city,every hood and every block) I wish,I wish (Ghetto America) I wish,I wish,I wish, I wish,I wish,I wish Rollin' through the hood Just stopped to say what's up And let you know your baby boy aint doin' so tough Even though you passed Going on four long years Still waking up late at night cryin' tears just thinkin' about those days You used to talk to me Smilin' while I'm sippin'on this Hennessy And remember we'd brag on how rich we would be To get out this hood was like a fantasy And now you hear my songs The radio is playin' Oh I can't believe my ears and what everybody is sayin' Boy I tell you folks don't know the half I would give it all up just to take on ride with you How I used to kick it on the front porch With you And how I used to lay back and smoke weed With you And all the little basement party joints we'd do Now I'm just missing you How I wish I wish that I could hold you now I wish that I could touch you now I wish that I could talk to you Be with you somehow I know you're in a better place Even though I can't see your face I know you're smilin' down at me Sayin' everything's OK And if I make it out this thug life I'll see you again someday I wish,I wish,I wish, I wish,I wish,I wish Ever since this money come It's been nothing but stress Sometimes I wish that I could just trade in my success Y'all look at me and say Boy,you've been blessed But y'all don't see the inside of my unhappiness Man,I swear this shit gets heavy like a ton That's why you hear me shootin' this real shit off like a gun Mmmm I wonder how my friends would treat me now If I was iced up with a Bentley and a house That's why Fake-ass niggas get fake-ass digits And fake-ass player get a real player hatin'em "Honey Love" goes platnium and y'all ass come 'round But y'all don't wanna raise the roof Until my shit is goin' down And now you hear my songs The radio is playin' Oh I can't believe my ears and what everybody is sayin' Boy I tell you folks don't know the half I would give it all up just to take one ride with you How I used to hoop off in them to tournaments With you And how I used to club hop on weekends With you your family called the morning of the tragic end Damn..my condolences Voices in my head Be tellin' me to come to church Say the lord is the only way for you to stop the hurt Dreaming of windows Black-tinted like a hearse But waking up to life sometimes seems worse And all I ever wanted is to be a better man And I try to keep it real with my homies, man Want me to save the world I don't understand How did I become the leader of a billion fans And now you hear my songs The radio is playin' Oh, I can't believe my ears and what everybody's sayin' Boy I tell you folks don't know the half I would give it all up just to take one ride With you How I used to street perform on Friday With you and how I'd go to church on Easter Sunday With you Instead of y'all throwin' them stones at me Somebody pray for me | |

I took my love and I took it down
Climbed a mountain and turned around And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills 'til the landslide brought it down Oh, mirror in the sky -What is love? Can the child within my heart rise above? Can I sail through the changin'...ocean tides Can I handle the seasons of my life? I don't know.....I don't know Well I've been afraid of changin' because I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder, even children get older And I'm getting older too.... So, take my love...take it down Climb a mountain and turn around and if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills... well the landslide will bring it down The landslide will bring it down (I had always loved this song..Never really took a second to listen to the lyrics...Then tonight I heard a live version of this were Stevie starts of the song by saying "This is for Dad".....well, my grand-mama who I have referenced so often here is slowly getting ready to leave us...and I got the meaning of this song...) thanks for sharing your song mostbeautiful..i hope you dont mind me sharing mine with you...

My young love said to me "My mother won't mind
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind" And she stepped away from me and this she did say, "It will not be long, love, till our wedding day" She stepped away from me, and she went thro' the fair. And fondly I watched her move here and move there. And then she went homeward with one star awake, As the swan in the evening moves over the lake. * Last night she came to me, she came softly in, So softly she came that her feet made no din. And she laid her hand on me, and this she did say "It will not be long love, till our wedding day" | |

Ex-Moderator | Two pale figures
Ache in silence Timeless In the quiet ground Side by side In age and sadness I watched And acted wordlessly As piece by piece You performed your story Moving through an unknown past Dancing at the funeral party Memories of childrens dreams Lie lifeless Fading Lifeless Hand in hand with fear and shadows Crying at the funeral party I heard a song And turned away As piece by piece You performed your story Noiselessly across the floor Dancing at the funeral party for 2 people who are very special to me on this, their difficult day |

This song everytime I hear it ,it reminds me of the video where the man loses his wife and replays the day over in his head while waiting in the waiting room on news of his wife. This song still makes me cry to this day. Reminds me that everyday I need to let the people who are important in my life know how much I cherish them for no one knows what tomorrow brings.
~~~ A Woman's Work~~~ Pray God you can cope. I stand outside this woman's work, This woman's world. Ooh, it's hard on the man, Now his part is over. Now starts the craft of the father. I know you have a little life in you yet. I know you have a lot of strength left. I know you have a little life in you yet. I know you have a lot of strength left. I should be crying, but I just can't let it show. I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking Of all the things I should've said, That I never said. All the things we should've done, That we never did. All the things I should've given, But I didn't. Oh, darling, make it go, Make it go away. Give me these moments back. Give them back to me. Give me that little kiss. Give me your hand. (I know you have a little life in you yet. I know you have a lot of strength left. I know you have a little life in you yet. I know you have a lot of strength left.) I should be crying, but I just can't let it show. I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking Of all the things we should've said, That were never said. All the things we should've done, That we never did. All the things that you needed from me. All the things that you wanted for me. All the things that I should've given, But I didn't. Oh, darling, make it go away. Just make it go away now. | |

Sonnet-The Verve
My friend and me Looking through her red box of memories Faded I'm sure But love seems to stick in her veins you know Yes, there's love if you want it Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord Yes, there's love if you want it Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord My lord Why can't you see That nature has its way of warning me Eyes open wide Looking at the heavens with a tear in my eye Yes, there's love if you want it Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord Yes, there's love if you want it Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord My lord Sinking faster than a boat without a hull My lord Dreaming about the day when I can see you there My side By my side Here we go again and my head is gone, my lord I stop to say hello 'Cause I think you should know, by now By now By now By now By now By now Oh, by now Oh, by now Oh, by now Oh, by now | |

Very timely....
One of my mom's best friends, a lifelong family friend, finally died of cancer after years and years of battling it. It was even in remission for 15 yrs, then came back. The thing that breaks my heart the most is that her husband treated her terribly these last few years while she was sick and going through chemo, acting as if she was exaggerating her condition, trying to get her to work more to help financially, saying things like "don't give me that cancer excuse". He refused to let her tell their teenaged son just how close to dying she was, preferring instead that he be under the impression that she still had a year or so to live. And while she was in the hospital, just before Hospice came to take over, her friends were calling and he wasn't giving her the messages. I'll be at the funeral Wednesday, am flying almost all the way across the country to attend, and here's my thing: how in the world am I going to look her husband in the eye?! Forgiveness is so hard sometimes--and it's so easy to allow anger to block out the pain of grief. | |
