I remember,
Long talks,
Warm winters,
playing golf
Watching football games,
You know we Call the hogs
Woo pig sooie, today
Ain't nothing changed
I still feel grateful that
you would give me your name
Yeah, so I'm hitching my wagon
Up to your legacy
Just tryna make you proud
I will never be
Another man lost in this world
Of negativity
And even though your 5 years gone.
Wrote you a letter! See
Dear poppa
I just wanted to droppa
Few lines thanking
You kindly for bringing proper
Guidance in my life,
And being great Father
Showed me how to be a real man
And understand.
That people aren't perfect,
still we show them respect
The power of a smile
Relief when I'm in distress
I couldn't even made it this far without your help, and yo
I'm keeping all the lessons you taught to push my self
Ayyyeee
Chorus
Hello Mr. White,
Its been a long time,
So I felt the need to write
and tell you all about
how I'm doing in my life
Doing what I can
Everybody's Just fine
Times get hard in fact,
we keep looking back
and we may get sad
But its because we miss you,
and there's no doubt
That we will meet again, and welcome
your smile.
My dear momma, your wife,
She put up fight.
Emotions heavy day and the night
From the memories of your past
The way that you used to laugh
Cherishing every second from the time she took your last name.
Daily living ain't the same
When your soul mate accepts
A promotion to higher planes
Gotta find a way to make it....gotta,
fight through the pain.
Leaning heavy on the cross,
Callin on Jesus name....but Wait
I bet you wonder how the rest are
The family doing well,
See they.... making the best of
A Tough situation,
They remember they're blessed up
We working on a dynasty
Can't settle for less...
Never more shaken, then
When I felt you were taken
Too soon, I cried looking
In that hospital room
Laying peacefully in the bed
Momma rubbing your head
Be Strong, gotta remember
Tough times are ahead
Chorus
Hello Mr. White,
Its been a long time,
So I felt the need to write
and tell you all about
how I'm doing in my life
I'm doing what I can
Everybody's Just fine
Times get hard in fact,
we keep looking back
and we may get sad
its because we miss you,
and there's no doubt
We will meet again, and welcome
your smile.

Your funny little sayings
Encouraging me to pray and
Keep pushing to stay on track
Cause you promised to my have back
When I took it for granted
The time we'd have here standing
still a tree here was planted
Whose roots can not be banished
I am taking advantage
Of the wisdom you granted
Call it my right of passage
A soldier, constantly winning
I'm reapin what you sowed
Cause you pointed me to the general,
Leonidas, nah, He the Highest
Feeling major beneful
Chorus
