Oh ya know, I'll always be

Your little soldier….

 

Even though I'm dying inside, I live on to fight

Though I could just break down and cry, I'm holding on tight

So scared of tomorrow, but I will survive

I know I can make it through with you by my side

 

It be just me and G-pa since I was two years old

N' though we never had a penny, never lived like we were broke

He didn't own his car, his tv, or even home

No he didn't have a thing and to everyone he owed

But he gave me everything, most of all he gave me hope

N' when he left this world, I swear to god he took my soul

With 'em to the heavens to protect, to have and hold

N' when ma days are done I know G-pa I'm coming home

Cuz you were there to pick me up, whenever I fell down

Told me like it really was, when them boys start comin' round

You know I miss you everyday, always remember what you'd say

"Baby girl be strong…life honours the brave!"

 

(Chorus)

 

Two years we didn't speak, not a peep 

Just silence, our grudges weighin' on our conscience

All I wanted to do was just to talk to you

Say I'm sorry, can you forgive me?

But you can't, cuz you gone and i'm here all alone

Full of regret I can't forget, I just reflect there's no reset

How could you leave me such a wreck?

When I need you the most, just to be here

So I could see clear

Smoke n' mirrors all around 

Make me think twice, I need advice

Can't trust a soul, needing' console

I swear to god I'll lose control

N' it be all gone, cuz I was all wrong

Come back where you belong

I promise I'll be strong

 

(Chorus)

 

G you in heaven smilin' down

I feel ya light, be so profound

It lifts me up, it holds me tight

You in ma corner every fight

Now I can't lose, I just refuse

Each single step, be me an you's

I'm climbing higher all da time

Hopin' this ladder reach so high

Up to the gate, I'm on ma way

So face to face, now I can say

G -pa ma love for you don't fade

I hold you close, you be ma faith 

You in my mind there all the time

Know all I do, be just for you

It's in your name, no strides in vain

Me and G-pa,  one in the same

 

(Chorus)
