Bye Bye
September 11 will never be the same again. It had never meant much to me, that is until I crashed and burned that fateful day.
Mariah Carey sang a song after that day. Drumma Queen had sent it to me, she knows me best. So I'm sharing it here. I guess it's my way of letting go.
This is for my peoples w
ho just lost somebodyYour best friend, your baby, y
our man or your ladyPut your hand way up high, we will never say byeMamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousinsThis is for my peoples w
ho lost their grandmothersLift your head to the sky c
ause we will never say byeAs a child there were them timesI didn't get it b
ut you kept me in lineI didn't know why y
ou didn't show up sometimesOn Sunday mornings and I missed youBut I'm glad we talked throughAll them grown folk things s
eparation bringsYou never let me know it, you never let it showBecause you loved me and obviouslyThere's so much more left to sayIf you were with me today face to faceI never knew I could hurt like thisAnd everyday life goes on I wishI could talk to you for a whileMiss you but I try not to cryAs time goes byAnd it's true that you've r
eached a better placeStill I'd give the world to see your faceAnd be right here next to youBut it's like you're gone too soonNow the hardest thing to do is sayBye byeBye bye, bye bye, bye byeBye bye, bye bye, bye byeBye bye, bye bye, bye byeBye byeYou never got a chance to see h
