Royal Ryan - Remember You

January 14th, 2016
I just got done with school
Get a call from my mom coming home and
I hope everything's cool
Get home and I open the door
I knew something was wrong
Could see it on my mom's face
January 14th, 2016
Just got done with school
And I got a call from my mom coming home
Damn I hope everything's cool
And I get home and open the door
I knew something was wrong
Could see it on my mom's face
Yeah I knew you were gone
But I didn't believe it until I heard her say those words
It's Todd they found him dead
But how you sound absurd
I'll never forget that moment
The news hit me so hard I felt sick to my stomach
Remember that christmas eve
You brought us cards as I was leaving
Now you're gone all of a sudden
Knew you had problems
Just thought you'd always be around
We all going through something
Wish I noticed that you were down
You told me you loved me that day
Never thought It'd be the last time
Just wish I could have one more talk with you
Tell you how much you meant to me
Never understood why you were gone when I was younger
Now I do and it still doesn't make sense to me
Remember the day I could've went and saw you
But I didn't want that to be my last picture of you
Cause you were a role model in my eyes
A hard worker who always had his eyes on the prize
You supported our family since I was 4
Still picture you walking in that door
With chinese and some egg rolls from your store
We loved it so we would always ask for more
Been a lot of changes since you've been gone
Just another reason why I wrote this song
My family wants me to get my degree
But at this point I've just had enough
I fell for the music people calling it stupid
But they don't know how alive it makes me feel
Just wish you were here to give me some advice
I'm betting on myself you know rolling the dice
My sister yeah I've been trying my hardest to be her father figure
Crazy how it's now been 6 years I still picture
You in the kitchen with a bottle of sky liquor
Wish you could meet the girl of my dreams
She's going to be my wife just announced it recently did you see it
Beautiful queen yeah she about that maternity life
Just makes me sad
All this is going on down here
You've missed out on so much
You should be here
Chilling on the couch talking about our days
My mom wasn't always the nicest
But being with family man that's priceless
I know you wasn't perfect
You made your fair share of mistakes
But I just want you to know
This is a message to you
No matter where life takes me
I will always remember you
Yeah I will always remember you
This is a message to you
Life goes on but
I will always remember you
I will always remember you
It's kind of hard to forget you man
I mean we share the same birthday what are the odds
Wish I knew how you were doing up there
Just gotta keep putting my faith in the gods
I hope you are smiling down and proud of me
I'm 23 now and I'm a father
Still got work to do but you'll see
Made a promise to you I'm definitely getting stronger
Give me a sign if you can hear me
Ain't after the money just want my family to feel bliss
Don't want anybody to feel alone out there
Tell your family you love them and give them a kiss
I know this is going to take a lot of hard work and time
I knew that when I started this climb
I know one of these days It'll all be worth it
Going to keep working on it and never quit
When I have my first show
I'm going to enjoy that view
In that moment I'll definitely think of you
Yeah I know I'll remember you
