what should I say to the kids

And she came to me
a little girl
she was holding capitol hill
that her American uncle gave her
and then she asked me, daddy
where did Brent chachoo go?

what shall I tell her
What shall I tell her Brent?
Should I tell her the truth
God give me strength?
What should I tell her
What shall I tell her my friend
shall I read her your emails
us complementing the trend

So I said, sweet heart
God loved Brent chachoo so much
that now He wants to be
with him all the time.

And then she told her mother
Mommy remember what Uncle Brent gave me
this pop up capitol hill
maybe one day, she says,
I can be the president
or a congresswoman, or a teacher, a friend

But what shall I tell her
What shall I tell her Brent?
Should I tell her the truth
God give me strength?
what should I tell her
What shall I tell her my friend?
Should I tell her the truth
about the accident?

And then I said to her
yes I told her Brent
do good for others
God' will give you the strength

Your legacy, is your integrity
that's what you kept telling all the humanity
integrity of your work
integrity of your words

But what shall I tell her
What shall I tell her Brent?
Should I tell her the truth
God give me strength?
What should I tell her
What shall I tell her my friend
Should I tell her the truth
about the fatal accident
what shall I tell her
What shall I tell her Brent?
shall I read her your emails
us setting the trend

What should I tell the kids
What should I tell them, my friend?

does it really matter

I should've reached out
that I did too
I should've shook you
I should've asked you to
open up your eyes

forget everything I said
and here's the bottom line

there will be no one like him
ever again
God stopped making them

lets all remember his smile
they, us, we, you
I loved him
and still do
God does too
thats why he took him so early

this is awesome my friend
reading your emails again,
i thought i would faint or throw up
or feel an intense pain,
but there's only this numbness.
i love your thoughts man, so clean, full of hope,
loving, caring, intense, blessed.

maybe i couldn't understand you,
most of our lives
we spend time lost in our own little hives
with pre-conceived stupid notions and misconceptions,
about eachother
stupid enough to judge others
on the basis of how we see...
when life is a 2 shot scene
life is a 2 shot scene
so obviously obscene.

And I am sorry if i caused you any pain,
for the time that i made you wait on me,
i know you waited, but i couldn't get back to you sooner, what a loser

So i raise my hands tonight and pray to God
that one day we will meet again,
and that day we will hug again, like we use to bud,
that tight warm candid hug of yours

you never hesitated,
even for a second
and that's how i remember you
and your Bulgarian dreams
sipping down the caspian sea

please forgive me, and ask God to forgive me too.
i don't know what to do,
what to say, in any way,
i wish i could see you or talk to you one last time,
but like you said in reply to "Bulgarian Dream" bro...

when you love someone,
there is no last time.

His plan is divine...

Maybe I couldn't understand you,
most of our lives
we spend time lost in our own little hives
with pre-conceived stupid notions and misconceptions,
about eachother
stupid enough to judge others
on the basis of how we see
when
life is a 2 shot scene.
life is a 2 shot scene.
so wickedly obscene
but
life is a 2 shot scene.

Any time

Tick tack
tick tack
tick tack toe
any time can be
the time to go.

Tick tack
tick tack toe
you don't know when
you might go.

through the summers
fall or spring
I do think
what life can bring
and death is
not a mystery
your legacy is your history.

Tick tack
tick tack toe
any time its time to go.
what you're thinking
why so slow
get on the bus
lets rock and roll.

what you taught
got reinforced
we don't know
how fast it goes

make the best
of what you got
time, my friend
you don't have a lot

Tick tack
tick tack
tick tack toe
any time can be
the time to go.

Tick tack
tick tack toe
you don't know when
you might go.

Tick tack
tick tack toe
any time its time to go.
what you're thinking
why so slow
get on the bus
lets rock and roll.

Overload

Why'd you had to ride that bike?
why'd you really have to put up a fight?
why didn't, you listened, to anyone
living life like a loaded gun...

And now you shimmer
in the light of this sunset
in the distance
is the spot where we once met
and where we're going, is a place that's already found us
so come on bud, i wont take the metro, or the bus.

Did i ever sound obnoxious or rude
but you knew that i loved you dude
like a brother, lost in the past
im coming at you like an express

and now you shimmer
basking in the light of this sunrise
I see no reason
still we got to end this life
and where we're going, is a place already found
maybe everything is happening in Gods consciousness.

people say that I should say it was destiny
I keep thinking
but that's the difference between destiny and God's will
destiny can be changed, through the will of God.

Because now
I'm sitting here calling out to you
you said you're reaching out but couldn't get through
and I hear, nothing
who am I kidding?
you're really gone
and left me with this killing
overload.

can you hear me or the ones you loved
the phones ringing no ones picking up
you lived your life even better than the kings
you're the light that happiness brings
shared your energy with every single one
no hesitations to help the children

and now you shimmer
basking in the light of this sunset
back in the distance
I see the spot where we once met
and where we're going, is a place that's already found you
so come on bud, lets hit the future,
not what it was...

I'm sitting here calling out to you
you said you're reaching out but couldn't get through
and I hear, nothing
who am I kidding?
you're really gone
moved it on
and left me with this
killing,
overload.

live on

This is the time
to test my soul
or is it the time
for me to carry on?
I'm alive
just not breathing
spinning all around you
though for some I might be gone

I am like the river that flows through the mountains of beyond

I wont cry today
I'll give it
all my self control
Instead
I'll pray to God
to have mercy on your soul

I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
like your smile
I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
like your eyes
I'll remember, everything, about your life
No I wont cry

I can still see you
with that camera of yours
eager to get back
to start editing and opening doors
you gave it all to your work
even gave yourself for the common good

I wont cry today
I'll give it
all my self control
Instead
I'll pray to God tonight
to have mercy on your soul

I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
like your smile
I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
like your eyes
I'll remember, everything, about your life
No I wont cry tonight

I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
I'll remember, everything, about your life
You get the glory, man
I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
like your smile

The day he left he named it as his course
he lived and thrived like a powerful force
so close your eyes and see him
in between your memories
you'll hear the wind singing, something sweet through the trees

you will live in me
yes in you and me
some may not but some will see
some may not but some will see

I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
like your eyes
I'll remember, everything, about your life
You get the glory
I'll remember, all the good things, of your life
like your smiles
I cant believe I'm writing this
We'll remember, all the good things, of your life
I'll remember, everything, about your life
like your smile

you're gone
but these cars man, they keep moving on
or maybe, that's the sign

I wish you'd live a thousand lives
as I watch you go beyond that light.
