Have you ever Had someone close to you die I know you wanna cry But keep your head up high And remember (remember) They're in a better place (in heaven) Up there somewhere far away And they'll be waiting for you to join them one day I know you keep them in your heart That special part. Didn't care to share Thought he'd always be there But he had to go. It was his time to fly Though he struggled to live See we all gotta die Don't question why It's just how life goes It just happened to be your number one homie that God chose Your sadness shows, your woes, your sorrows But keep in mind the sun will shine tomorrow Now he's gotta halo, an everlasting glow And it's painful but only God knows What's next on the agenda (yeah) Either way you gotta return to sender But while you're here you gotta keep ya head up Moving on your life and never let up Let the past be the inspiration to get up Tell the devil he's a liar and ya feed up c'mon Have you ever Had someone close to you die I know you wanna cry But keep your head up high And remember (remember) They're in a better place (in heaven) Up there somewhere far away And they'll be waiting for you to join them one day Release and let go the fault wasn't ours She was called upon by a much higher power What's important for us all to understand We're just little pieces in God's big plan so Hold on when I tell you hold on, stay strong and it won't be long Till you see your little boy again your mommy again your brother again Your best friend Sometimes you just wanna ball out his name Seem like your sun don't shine the same, but you gotta maintain Remain sane, know you're not to blame But while you're here You gotta keep your head up Keep moving on your life and never let up Let the past be the inspiration to get up Tell the devil he's a liar and ya feed up c'mon Have you ever Had someone close to you die I know you wanna cry But keep your head up high And remember (remember) They're in a better place (in heaven) Up there somewhere far away And they'll be waiting for you to join them one day I know it's hard living life after d**h Sometimes hard to see what you got left Now you're feelin' lost don't know what to do Don't let the demons out there try to fool you Give it all to God he'll pull you through Jehovah'll make a witness out of you You know it's true, but it's hard to realize That God's still there when your best friend dies They'll be times when you just fall apart Just remember to keep them always in your heart Let the tears fall it's okay to cry Try to understand it's his time to fly There's a time when a spirit to say peace and release From a body that's left deceased You've got to know there's so much more than what's right here Have no fear Have you ever Had someone close to you die I know you wanna cry But keep your head up high And remember (remember) They're in a better place (in heaven) Up there somewhere far away And they'll be waiting for you to join them one day Ad lib and repeat chorus 2x
