[Verse 1 (rap)]
|
I just wanted to say thank you
|
for teaching me the things
|
I couldn't have learned without you
|
and I know that you're watching over me
|
so tell me
|
did I turn out to be everything that you hoped I'd be
|
I just wish I had a second chance to say
|
that I love you
|
'cause I didn't
|
before you passed away
|
I hope you know how many lives you touched
|
your memory lives in all of us
|
I miss you so much
|
[Chorus]
|
One final breath
|
between you and I one final test
|
when I looked into your eyes
|
this is what you left
|
all I am inside
|
with one final breath
|
you gave me life
|
[Verse 2 (rap)]
|
Just the other night
|
you visited me in a dream
|
you looked as healthy as ever
|
the best I've ever seen
|
you stood there in the light
|
surrounded by a sea of green
|
it was a beautiful place
|
where only love could breathe
|
then you took me by the hand
|
and told me silently that objects in the mirror may be closer than they seem
|
and I thanked you with a smile
|
for reminding me
|
you didn't have to speak
|
'cause I heard every word
|
your message was clear and you can be rest assured
|
that I'll teach all the rest the best of all that I've learned
|
your death gave life to me
|
and I've turned into the best person that I can be
|
court's adjourned
|
[Chorus]
|
[Bridge (sing)]
|
Now I live my life for you
|
[Verse 3 (rap)]
|
To the greatest teacher I've ever known
|
from beyond you showed me that I'll never be alone
|
and I've grown beyond my years
|
these tears are here to show you that I've conquered the fear
|
let us not grieve over your death
|
but celebrate your life
|
and let you rest
|
a life with no regrets
|
just love and happiness
|
you taught us this and now bliss manifests
|
[Chorus]
|
