POPS
(Written by Lance Howard)

Prayer
Ori guide me to the energy of my father’s spirit, may he be with me, and May his presence bring me peace, Ori guide me father be with me.

Hook
Things ain’t been the same since the day you passed I’m like a downed plane waiting on the crash
I’m dealing with the pain
how long will it last
Trying to live up to your name is my greatest task
I know you told me daddy that this day would come
But the weight of the moment man it weigh a ton
But I got now
I’ll fulfill the legacy
And I hope you looking down man you proud of me

Verse 1
What up pops it’s your baby your biggest fan
And in case you didn’t know You the freaking man
It was standing room only at your transition
And if you wonder if I spoke
man that’s a given
I told ‘em how my kidney man
it gave you life
In you was so excited
golfing every night
How you taught me
ain’t no room for pity that’s a wrap You gone have to face the world
with one hand that’s a fact
In how my life changed
once I had a son
In I have to live for him
until my time is done
N my baby girl
happy u meet her
It was the best thing ever
when you tried to feed her
You always keep me around
black father's tho
It was you, Mr Sheard,
man n Mr Moore,
Mr long, Mr Powell just to name a few So if yo daddy made this list
gone be proud too

Hook
Things ain’t been the same since the day you passed I’m like a downed plane
waiting on the crash
I’m dealing with the pain
how long will it last
Trying to live up to your name is my greatest task
I know you told me daddy that this day would come
But the weight of the moment man it weigh a ton
But I got now
I’ll fulfill the legacy
And I hope you looking down man you proud of me

Verse 2
I might have been the first call
on that dreaded night
Trying to interpret through the screams that you lost your life
Man my knees just bucked
almost hit the wall
In my wife yells baby
what the hell is wrong
I say my dad just died
she ran to my arms
Now I’m scrambling for the phone
I gota Call mom’s
When she pick up
she like OMG Lance No
Ok son you gotta get to the hospital Now I’m racing to the Car gotta call Art
Cuz if I don’t talk to him
I might fall apart
Trying to get to my pops weaving thru the clutter Now everybody asking me Where’s your brother
He never showed I’m like cool Gives me more time
Cuz I thought to myself
man this moments mine
I get to bid a farewell to my fallen hero Man the love that we shared
It won’t be an equal

Hook
Things ain’t been the same since the day you passed I’m like a downed plane waiting on the crash
I’m dealing with the pain
how long will it last
Trying to live up to your name is my greatest task
I know you told me daddy that this day would come
But the weight of the moment man it weigh a ton
But I got now,
I’ll fulfill the legacy
And I hope you looking down man you proud of me

Verse 3
Since you been away
I have not been the same Promise not to let you go I’ll live up to your name And I want to let you know That I Will not forget
The love you had for me Love for me

Prayer
After you light your Candie, hold your head in your hands and say Ori guide me, Ori guide me through my day, Ori I guide me to life to love, to peace in my heart, so I can move on with my day. Ori Guide me.
