| [00:01.199] |
Yeah Lil' different this time |
| [00:02.206] |
Got my grandfather on my mind, you know. |
| [00:03.706] |
Alright, yeah |
| [00:07.200] |
|
| [00:09.463] |
I took a silent moment in remembrance of him |
| [00:11.947] |
An angler of the soul, a true fisherman of men |
| [00:15.199] |
I wrote a couple words and I'mma send them on the winds |
| [00:17.709] |
I sure that you and god are talking, skim them when you can |
| [00:20.453] |
I realize you're gone but I know you left your recipe |
| [00:23.211] |
We're living in your words and we're basking in your legacy |
| [00:25.718] |
Rest in peace for now we'll see you later on |
| [00:27.710] |
If nothing else, we'll see you every time we play this song |
| [00:30.700] |
I say to ya'll he caught us all like the cod, life was hard |
| [00:33.212] |
But he got it right with God, and now he on the other side See him in my mother eyes |
| [00:38.704] |
And if you will be together again when the sun arrives |
| [00:41.458] |
Yes your past, you ran away, and thats too bad |
| [00:43.456] |
I value what you taught, you're the dad I never had |
| [00:46.461] |
Some of your words, honestly, I left them in the past |
| [00:48.958] |
No they didn't all stick, but surely the message has |
| [00:51.707] |
|
| [00:52.202][Hook x4] |
My grandfather never bought a lot of gifts But he handed me a rod and he taught me how to fish x4 |
| [01:12.449] |
|
| [01:12.960] |
I'm a fisherman now Your livin' through your grandson |
| [01:15.953] |
I ain't sitting around cuz that'll leave he hamstrung |
| [01:18.216] |
Its like I got a son that I gotta raise |
| [01:20.708] |
So I gotta grind, I ain't got it made |
| [01:23.201] |
That means I gotta work, gotta keep a job and |
| [01:26.205] |
Means I gotta grow gotta leap the frog and |
| [01:28.954] |
That means I gotta pray, find a peace with god and |
| [01:31.452] |
Fishin with discipline I gotta keep the rod man |
| [01:33.966] |
You taught me well grandpop, I'm on the wagon now |
| [01:36.719] |
And I won't let this whole world come and drag me down |
| [01:39.451] |
It gets hard but I ain't really one for backing out |
| [01:41.960] |
So I'mma live for now and come and join you after awhile |
| [01:44.704] |
Yes you passed, you went away, and that's too bad |
| [01:47.201] |
I value what you taught, your the dad I never had Some of your words, honestly, I left em in the past |
| [01:51.456] |
No they didn't all stick but surely the message has |
| [01:54.699] |
|
| [01:55.213][Hook x4] |
My grandfather never bought a lot of gifts But he handed me a rod and taught me how to fish |
| [02:14.708] |
|
| [02:15.959] |
