The sun was on the way to you next
It must’ve known you needed
light for your steps
Dark path, dark past,
it enlightened us
But it’s heavy sometimes it
dims the bright in us
I got the call post-show in the Bay
A chill descended that
I still can’t shake
In the Uber found a
place for the blame
Emptied out my eyes
when I got on the plane
My team of angels got one too soon
I’m feeling selfish
Just for wanting heaven
to see you again
‘Cause I’m jealous of the hands
that got to hold you last
Are we relics that you left
so we could see the end?
Losing you was like a kick to the ribs
Every night we danced
the most precious of gifts
Chris, wish I could’ve given
you these flowers
Every bloom, just for you
Rest in peace, rest in power
Every bloom, just for you
Rest in peace, rest in power
Every bloom, just for you
Rest in peace, rest in power
Calla lilies on my conscious
Orchids on my bedside
Regrets washing over
when the clock strikes bedtime
Mind pulling
all the weeds into clear view
Puts my dreams
and my goals in the rearview
Like damn you ain’t recycle that
Damn, where’s your cycle at
Damn you looking Job as hell
But haven’t brought your Bible back
Damn you gotta title that
You ain’t even writing good
Everything to spite the growth
I’m making on the inside
Seeds only know darkness
til they break ground
So I’m working
til my spirit finds a breakthrough
The moon told me
everybody breaks down
But your soul and
your body need a break too
Every doubt that my fears compose
Breed a fire and it’s burning my soul
So Imma set the beats aflame
Til they only talking embers
when they’re speaking my name
Every bloom, just for you
Rest in peace, rest in power
Every bloom, just for you
Rest in peace, rest in power
