Homie - Memory Of Love lyrics
Chorus 1 I'm living in the memory of love, and this love, I'm never giving up I'm living in the memory of love, and this love, I'm never giving up Cause I'm living in the memory of love, and this love, I'm never giving up Cause I'm living in the memory of love, and this love ,I'm never giving up Verse 1 It ain't my fault things turned out the way they did However, I always blame myself for all of it But no one could prevent it even if they prayed for it Well not prayed for it, I meant the opposite When you left I really couldn't stomach it, but I miss you on behalf of all your kids You sheltered us, sheltered us from all the politics But now I'm gon' take care of us and you can count on it I was too young to really understand the cause And even younger to be told, no it's not your fault I always thought its cause I made you slip and crack your jaw That made you walk out my life through that pearly door So I lived with the guilt and cherished every gift That you ever gave me as a kid, that teddy, and quilt, plus the shirt made of silk And the life that I live, wish I had more to give than this rap that I did Chorus 2 I'm living in the memory of love, and this love I'm never giving up (The life that I live, wish I had more to give than this rap that I did) I'm living in the memory of love, and this love I'm never giving up Cause I'm living in the memory of love, and this love I'm never giving up Cause I'm living in the memory of love, and this love I'm never giving up Verse 2 I remember this day like it was yesterday When my dad got the call that you went away Held me close and suddenly became teary eyed He didn't even have to say the words that you died, ‘fore I began to cry Pushed him away, put my hands up to my face, ran to my room and locked myself inside I screamed till I was out of breath and felt paralyzed Then curled up into a ball, cause I was terrified I can't explain the feeling, but I know we all been through it, for some crazy a** reason Like my soul was bleeding, screaming why lord, pleading Take me instead, I shouted while I'm grieving, I cursed him every evening Lost my faith and stopped believing, what's the basis that u stopped her from breathing Ok, u may have needed her, but I still needed my mother so how's that for a f**ing reason. Despite my anger, I know she watching over me But my heart still colder than it is supposed be People say she in a better place supposedly But I think she right by me as I'm growing she, maybe even holding me Never letting go of me, giving me air when everybody else is chocking me Her memory keeps me warm in the coldest breeze; this is my bittersweet poetry Chorus 3 I'm living in the memory of love, (where you livin'?) and this love I'm never giving up (never what?) I'm living in the memory of love, (where you livin'?) and this love I'm never giving up (never what?) Cause I'm living in the memory of love, and this love I'm never giving up Cause I'm living in the memory of love, and this love (Never What?) I'm never giving up Outro (GBO Talks) Never givin' up, never givin' up, never givin' up Memory of love, memory of love, I said memory of love Never givin' up, memory of love Never givin' up, memory of love
