[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

[01:20.708]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
