Lyrics:
Verse 1
June 2, 2021
I'm about to paint a picture
I need a second wit ya
Second floor, ICU, Christian Hospital
Sitting with my wife, kid brother in an empty room
Thoughts running through my mind, ain't thinking clear
Like what' even life if my Mom ain't here
So, I say a prayer
Death please pass her up
COVID pandemic, whole crew masking up
What? Now be strong for my kid brother
Trials, tribulation, we had eachother
Man, mother been sick for a long time
Ten years, two bad kidneys is a hard grind
Infection, surgery, like paralysis
Always in pain, daily dialysis
Mom getting crazy weak, Mom can barely speak
It's been a long road, but today feels bleak
This current hospital stint's been a month
Mom keeps fighting but they say it's not enough
Mom keeps fighting but they say it's all in vain
So, they called us in a room to try to explain
We're sorry that she's in the ICU, yeah the second floor
We called you here because she had a heart attack the night before
Her heart went out, we got it back, but then it just went out again
There's no brain activity, it's not a good state she's in
She' hooked to a machine that does the breathing for her
I'm sorry but the woman that you know is no more
Today you need to take your Mom off life support
Chorus:
I'm at a loss for words -3X
Tell me what's the word -2X
Verse 2:
So, this is it Ma
Big finale vibes
It's been the biggest honor I'll see you on the other side
I'm at your bed side, I got your left hand
Chris has got your right, I can't believe this ends tonight
Leah's here too, she's been here the whole time
I know you're a big fan of this wife of mine
And this life of mine ain't alright this time
But, it's okay Mama you ain't gotta fight this time
It's okay Mama, I know you're so tired
I know you're so sick, I know you really tried
You always provide, you always came through
I don't know if you can hear me but I see you
I don't know if you can hear me but thank you
I don't know if you can hear me but I see you
Dear Mama, I release you
Dear God, I pray over your blessed child
Thank you for my Mama and the legacy she has now
Thank you for the 30 years we had, thank you for her love
Thank you for her strength, perseverance, selflessness
Thank you for her grace, excellence, intelligence
You ran your race, now enjoy the sunset
Rest in peace, Mama, Sheila Sharpe, never forget
