One More Time
I wish could hear your voice one more time
Grandma Daisy what you did for us will always be on our minds
You see you were not just an educator
You taught us how to live and reach for our goals
Without the pressure of bein' without hope
Uh, wish I could hear your voice one more time (wish I could hear you, yeah)
Wish I could hug on you one more time (one more time)
I wish God could open Heaven gates
So I could see your face one more time
'Cause I'm lost without you
Can you give me a sign?
Miss them old days in East Atlanta
When I used to see my Grandma
Comin' home to soul food and "Price Is Right" up on the channel
Miss the wisdom you was givin'
Miss the kisses you would give me
And for all them times I didn't answer your calls, forgive me
Prayed for me every single night I wasn't in the city
'Cause you know I got demons 'round me and people out to get me
All the late nights I cried knowin' I won't see your smile
I'm missin' you
Wish I could hear your voice one more time (one more time)
Wish I could hug on you one more time (hug you one more time) (one more, one more)
I wish God could open heaven gates (one more time)
So I could see your face one more time (one last time)
'Cause I'm lost without you
Can you give me a sign?
Yeah, man, I miss my dogs in the pound
And, man, I miss my homies they done put up in the ground
Gotta keep the real ones 'round 'cause loyalty hard to find
The streets is crazy, I pray for 'em all the time
Unc' told me, "Mind your business stack your paper and live your life
And watch out for the ones who movin' iffy, don't be blind
And give the ones you love they flowers now
'Cause tomorrow ain't promised, they won't always be around"
I wish
Wish I could hear your voice one more time (one more time, yeah) (said I miss you Grandma)
Wish I could hug on you one more time (one more, one more) (yes, I do)
I wish God could open Heaven gates
So I could see your face one more time (I wish, I wish, one last time)
'Cause I'm lost without you
Can you give me a sign?
Give me a sign
We miss those days when we didn't have nothin' to look forward to
But when your essence would join the room, the room would bloom
And we knew we'd make it through
You see Grandma it was more than just your kiss your love and your hug
It was that joy you still shower on us from above
We could never erase you we could never replace you
We spend all of our days just wantin' to embrace you
One more time
The pressures of every day are easy because of what you instilled in me
Uh, people try to rob me and steal my essence but
They don't understand what I stand on and believe
See, you taught us how to roll with respect
It was never complicated you made it plain
Uh, Grandma because of who you were and whose you were
We miss you
Nobody can take your place
Grandma you were a real one
(Said I miss you Grandma, yes, I do)
Nobody can take your place
Grandma you were a real one
Nobody can take your place
Grandma you were a real one (nobody, nobody)
Nobody can take your place (nobody)
Grandma you were a real one (yeah-yeah)
Nobody can take your place (yeah-yeah)
Grandma you were a real one
