Dead Man Walkin' Lyrics

Tears for Pops

The longer I dwell on all this pain the more that I jot

The longer I go against the grain with all that I got

It's like my patience just be dwindling

Snap in 60 seconds got the power of a minute man

I know God got a bigger plan

I guess I just ain't seen it yet

Hoping that He show me fore emotions hit a ceiling that

Cannot be recovered by a couple bars my pen had scratched

Tell me what's the difference 'tween stony hearts and empty

When a nigga tryna make it seeing death around the city

Feeling like I just got shot at by the opps, the bullets missed me

But now I got a void I share with niggas who den been round

The pain that make a nigga hit the bank and holla "get down"

Now I'm seeing why my nigga B can't put the pills down

Now I'm seeing why my nigga G can't put the drink down

Now I'm seeing why they look at me with such a stale face whenever I would try to tell them niggas they should quit now

Luckily a nigga is blessed, with the art to confess, that I ain't perfect through my rhymes but I stress

I miss my father and these words don't equal missing him less

Although my peace comes in the form of writing bodies of text

Need more than presidents to represent me

And if this gift has come from God then I'm just sending back what Heaven sent me

But with this void that hasn't been here long,

Unfortunately I'm feeling like I'm nothing more than just a dead man walking, I'm singing

Tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

Tell me would you wait on me

Tears for PawPaw

Was flowing when your son went away, but now they all gone

My well feeling empty but hey, it ain't been that long

Since tears have filled my eyes, but it's wise that I put them in these lines to make a damn song look

I wrote a verse for you when you turned 80

Showing appreciation for the man who made the man that made me

And then I moved to AZ, and cooled a heated mind state

Leaving where I'm from to blaze a trail like I was prime Dame

They'll be screaming my name, I'm thankful for your last

Guess your legacy was meant for me to take the torch and dash

Is it pleasant seeing Heaven, leaving Earth back in the past?

May I ask now?

Did you see the clouds and wanna get down

I bet you didn't

My pops had told me when you see the gates,

To get a chance to make shit straight on Earth you prolly won't be with it

And I remember that the days I need to reattach

When I'm feeling crazy and my conscience sayin G relax

Life can be a pain when you just tryna stay sane

I thank the Lord for my notes, I know this shit ain't a game

It's saving me from pandemonium that I'd be to blame

It ain't a thing to crack it open bruh to spill from the brain

Need more than presidents to represent me

And if this gift has come from God then I'm just sending back what Heaven sent me

But with this void that hasn't been here long,

Unfortunately I'm feeling like I'm nothing more than just a dead man walking, I'm singing

Tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

I said tell me would you wait on me

Tell me would you wait on me
