Old man you've been gone over 100 days, from the moment you spoke up I’ve tried to mend my ways, much less drinking and drugging I ain't living in a haze, no more eating myself into an early grave,

Got my head over the grindstone chase these dreams, know the fabric of life you showed me where to find the seams, yeah I got my hands dirty but I kept my nose clean, those lessons you gave me, opened everything,


Now's your turn to wear the crown,
Who will be your hero now,
Burdens yours to carry out,
Though life's wheels will grind you down,


My righteous woman, what can't you do, been building our whole world just we two, all the hills that we've crested, and the trials we've climbed through, yes this life is full of doubt but I've never doubted you,

Love just don't cover the way you make me feel, it's not the wine and roses but the s*** under our heels, it's the kind of strife you live through to let you know what love is real, cause in a world so full of liars you've got nothing to conceal,


Cause a rose is not a rose,
Without thorns to make you bleed,
Till the soil and cull that weed, girl you give me all I need,


Oh my sweet love child there's so much to know, though it seems like you may have been here before, you're as strong as your name girl as far as namesakes go, and the world you've been brought to who's cold you'll soon know,

Don't live in fear child you got to carry on, you know the plight of the weak becomes the burden of the strong, and before I leave this plane girl you're going to know which side you're on because it's never just as simple as a basic right or wrong,


What I see is part of me, she's greater than I'll ever be, I will have to go someday but these words of mine will stay, all the way through this life you'll find a path, find love and pride you'll learn it all, forget most, then at the end, you're gonna pray to ghosts,

Cuz baby this life, when you're living it right, so long, soo long,
My baby it’s life, oh it’s your life, soo long, sooooo long,
Baby so long, I love you so long, sooo long, oooooh,
Baby it’s life, all the days and nights, are yours to live right,
So long,
So long,
So long,
So long,
