01-21-2020 The day the Lord took my best friend from me And I kinda find it funny, but not really though I should've been six-feet 20 years ago I never forget all the laughs we had in the hoopty Whipping through the country He had a way of making cloudy days sunny But what I miss most was when he would son me "Like Travie, do this if you love me" I love you Bob 2-0-2-0 So long to the bitterness Just a spoonful of cinnamon You know, I know This knee on my neck is causing me to choke Like a spoonful of cinnamon Last year I flew to Jesup, Georgia To meet my papa and my nana, the family of my mama All of my life I was scared he never cared for me Because my father was black, he couldn't handle that I could see his shadow in the doorway next to the windchime That's poetic justice 'cause it looked just the same as mine (He hugged me) then he apologized for lost time And then I lost them both, and I damn near lost my mind 2-0-2-0 So long to the bitterness Just a spoonful of cinnamon You know, I know This knee on my neck is causing me to choke Like a spoonful of cinnamon Feel like I'm stuck in a hole, it's kind of cynical Downing these bottles is getting old It's not the way, it's not the way, it's not the way Too many funerals, biting 'em down to cuticles It's not the way, it's not the way, it's not the way Over again and over again Over again, over again 2-0-2-0 You probably think I had season tickets to funerals I'm so sick of seeing Rest In Peace tee shirts I swear I prayed so many prayers, my fucking knees hurt And Covid got us all stuck in the house like Mouse Trap And ain't no telling when the hell we gonna bounce back Plus it's open season on the melanin inclined We all had shitty years, thanks for hearing mine 2-0-2-0 So long to the bitterness Just a spoonful of cinnamon You know, I know This knee on my neck is causing me to choke Like a spoonful of cinnamon Feel like I'm stuck in a hole, it's kind of cynical Downing these bottles is getting old It's not the way, it's not the way, it's not the way Too many funerals, biting 'em down to cuticles It's not the way, it's not the way, it's not the way Over again and over again Over again, over again

I'll always see your face The corner of your smile And all the little things that no one will ever know Like it was yesterday Won't ever fade away Goodbye is just a word that I will never say You will never be forgotten A million days could pass us by But what is time but just a dream Oh, I still feel you here with me You're more than just a memory Oh, you will never be forgotten I can't hold your hand Or look into your eyes And when I talk to you It just echoes in my mind But if hearts are made of dust And if we fell from the stars I look up tonight and know just where you are You will never be forgotten A million days could pass us by But what is time but just a dream Oh, I still feel you here with me You're more than just a memory Oh, you will never be forgotten And the world just keeps on going It has no way of knowing That you're gone You will never be forgotten A million days could pass us by But what is time but just a dream Oh, I still feel you here with me You're more than just a memory Oh, you will never be forgotten Forgotten

Here I remind myself what You said over me Here I remind my soul who You are You said You won't relent Won't let go, won't forget Every promise You have whispered to my heart As I wait, as I wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint Rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar This desert holds a song I will sing, on and on You're a river when the ground I walk is dry And You will set the crooked straight Clear my path, make a way You will lead me from the valley to the heights As I wait (as I wait) As I wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint Rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar Creator, keeper Lifebreather Your name is greater than anything I've faced Sustainer, saviour Stronghold breaker Your name is greater than anything I've faced As I wait, as I wait on You I will wait, God, I will wait on You I'm gonna run and not grow weary I'm gonna walk and not grow faint I'll rise up on wings like eagles To soar I know with everything You're with me I know You're working as I wait Lift me up on wings like eagles To soar To soar I will soar
