Carry On |
On the 18th of July 2017 |
3AM I was asleep, wifey intervened |
And said «Your brother’s on the phone, wake up» |
I took the iPhone, hi bro, I beg you say something |
This don’t feel right so |
He told me Daddy’s on life support |
Doctors are saying we need to come in |
I hung up and starting rushing |
Wifey wanted to come but I told her stay behind |
Didn’t wanna believe that anything could happen to my favourite guy |
But she came anyway, typical, always by my side, it’s reciprocal |
She rides when it’s difficult |
Jumped in the whip, put the keys in |
A13 and I’m speeding praying without ceasing |
And then I pull up to the hospital |
My brother’s on his feet but my mum she’s on her knees |
I hope the doctors haven’t dropped the ball |
Cos if he dies it’s like she’s lost it all |
And then I pulled up to his bedside |
And I saw him wired up |
I swear my faith got fired up |
I said «Lord you’re higher up |
Help my Daddy rise up |
And fight tough» |
But he didn’t, times up |
They say the Lord knows best, how |
Because I’ve never felt so let down |
Ay yo my Daddy was a good guy |
And even though we had good times |
I couldn’t even say goodbye |
Carry on |
I’m losing patience, I’ll still carry on |
Nobody told me it would take this long |
Questioned my faith and where my pain belongs |
But maybe pain ain’t wrong |
I know pain is pain |
We all feel it in different ways |
When my Pops passed away |
That really tested my faith like |
What about the grace like |
Lord knows I prayed life |
How come he never came through |
Before the graveside? |
Now I’m at the gravesite sad |
Thinking bout all of the memories we had |
Like when I first got sponsored by Adidas we were the same size |
So I used to give you all the trainers I didn’t like |
Your favourites were the Stan Smiths |
And man it hurts that you’ll never meet you grandkids |
You deserve to see your last name expanding |
When I was younger you would put up with my antics |
But I turned out fine, so did Joel |
And I know earth was never your home, it’s just a hotel |
When God checked you out it was more than just a oh well |
Cos you gave the fam big wins you didn’t hold L’s |
The day you never went to work, that’s a cold hell |
Huffing up and down the field, you were our Odell |
Whenever I flew out for shows you told me go well |
Forever grateful, and I thought I was forever faithful |
I can’t lie I been struggling like I was never able |
So God if you are, help me recover, help my mum stop crying, help my wifey, |
help my brother |
Carry on |
I’m losing patience, I’ll still carry on |
Nobody told me it would take this long |
Questioned my faith and where my pain belongs |
But maybe pain ain’t wrong |
I remember back day when you told me «Tidy your room» |
You was popping to shop but you said you’d be back soon |
As soon as you left feet up I was watching the cartoons |
Time of my life till you got back, bout half 2 |
I ran to my room started scrambling |
You was coming up the stairs feet stamping |
Burst through the door I saw your face you weren’t ramping |
I started making up excuses I was rambling |
Then you did your cheeky little grin, then you burst out laughing |
Felt like you wanted to be angry but you just couldn’t help it |
Then you walked over to my bed, sat down and then called me over |
I thought I was about to get the belt or something but you just sat me in your |
lap |
You took my hand, and put it in the air |
Then you said, «Son, never be lazy. |
Hands are made for working.» |
