Testo Gone Away - Speech
Testo della canzone Gone Away (Speech), tratta dall'album The Vagabond
Since you've been gone, gone away
My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray
Since you've been gone, it ain't the same
Since you've gone away
This goes out to my brother
I bet you never knew you always pushed me to a higher level
Looking up to you in every single endeavor
You let me know the type of stock I come from
Could be a fight or gun, you weren't the type to run from
Nothing, I compare myself to you
Or at least contrasted all the things you tried to do
I do the opposite so I can fit
I felt inadequate 'cause you were so fantastic
At everything you did, when you stood, I sit
You was the ultimate, rock rocking it
While you was in med school, I was hip-hopping it
And as we got a little older, we got closer too
And you would boast of me and I would boast of you
Then you died at 29 and ten years later
I'm just able to write a rhyme to try to relate to
The pain that I feel inside
You would think it would subside but it's still besides
Since you've been gone, gone away
My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray
Since you've been gone, it ain't the same
Since you've gone away
The blood flowing through my veins
Remains a mark of who I am, of where I stand
I stand on sacred ground
Terry Thomas, God revealed you to me
Profound and deep meanings you are to me
Some I know now and some presently unseen
My older brother, the first to travel the roads of
Learning and discerning, yearning and disappointment
I relied on your presence to complete who I was to be
When God took you, He took a third of me
Yet He gave me so much of your insights and traits
And dislikes and hobbies and who's to say
What else I have in yours along the way
That God has intentionally saved
For me to discover to help me in the mostly today
Since you've been gone, gone away
My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray
Since you've been gone, it ain't the same
Since you've gone away
Yo Terry, I love you so much
I miss you so much that it hurts
Yo Terry, I love you so much
I miss you so much, I'm just hurting
You missed the birth of Johnny and Zoey and
You missed the weddings of me and Joey and
For them to not know you, could they really know me?
'Cause your son's a big part of who I be
Yo, it only makes sense
But we're not, you see
Up in the heavens where there's spiritual things
There's no bodies, just spiritual beings
And everybody's just a soul again
Back in their home again where there's no sin
Where there's all beginnings and no ends
Eternity hard to comprehend
But I stare at the sky and wonder when
My day will be to go to heaven
And live with God forever
My Father, my Creator
My Savior, my love
My day will be to go to heaven
And live with God forever
My Father, my Creator
My Savior, my love
Since you've been gone, gone away
My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray
Since you've been gone, it ain't the same
Since you've gone away
