Son's Shine ft. BluePrince Lyrics

Momma I miss the real you and I’m so sorry

Your kindness and free spirit cannot be compared

I remember the good ol' days

You told me I had to look both ways

Not to mention you cooked always

I never really understood those days

What it takes to run a family

All the stress and how demanding

Raising 4 boys can be commanding

You were so chill and did an outstanding

Job, thanks mom! You’re the best

It’s so hard to see you go through this test

Especially, when I think about what is next

On the good ol' days, I will reflect (reflect)

When you have great parents

You take them for granted, what do you expect

I didn’t understand how lucky I was that I landed

These two great human beings on this planet

It used to be tough saying this

Dad you’re the man and mom you’re the bomb

I know this wasn’t the plan

But we gotta stay strong (stay strong)

I wouldn’t have been a dick head kid if I knew this all along

Maybe, but i can’t change those facts

Can’t tell you where my brain was at

But I’m sorry but that’s hardly an apology

These things add up to me

It weighs on my heart and that love is deep deep deep

I don’t know if I’m saying this the right way

But I’m praying it’s a bright day

And you can enjoy the sun only a slight delay

I came out number one we’re gonna fight ok

I’ll bring out all your son's we’re glowing like rays

Of sunshine, now your son's shine

When we see your face

The sunshines, and your son's shine

That look you can’t replace

When your son's shine

And we see your face

I pray this disease let’s you live as long as possible

At ease you can live through all the obstacles

I see the fear but all that is optional (optional)

Alzheimer’s has you looking through binoculars

When you’re trying to see what’s right in front of you

We’re all still here to make you feel comfortable

No one shines as bright as you

Hard to define the life that you

Had, saw the signs thought we’d fight it through

Went to the doc, it was way more than achoo

Damn it’s true why’d this have to happen to you

I felt so blue, thinking of all the clues

Reminiscing on the past

Blink and life’s over, who knew (who knew)

I don’t know if I’m saying this the right way

But I’m praying it’s a bright day

And you can enjoy the sun only a slight delay

I came out number one we’re gonna fight ok

I’ll bring out all your son's we’re glowing like rays

Of sunshine, now your son's shine

When we see your face

The sunshines, and your son's shine

That look you can’t replace

When your son's shine

And we see your face

I was born, June 29th

I’m yours, small room inside

In North-side 75

The fourth, boy has arrived

Let’s talk about it

You would walk around it

Six miles a day 5 days a week

You would never sleep

To the death of me

When did you ever eat

You’re better than me

I would’ve gave up

But you just stayed up

While dad was gone for days

For work, you never tried to escape us

Misplaced us, never

Then we got the news

Your brain is deteriorating

I fear the taken

Take a life that is here for greatness

This had to be a sheer misplacement

It’s sad to see, so vibrantly

In your eyes I see

Like a ghost playing hide-n-seek

It’s killing me but it’s

Reminding me

Of the good days

Sitting and getting sun-rays,

Reminiscing and listen some days

You would never know it

These components

Will be gone in a moment

Boom

I don’t know if I’m saying this the right way

But I’m praying it’s a bright day

And you can enjoy the sun only a slight delay

I came out number one we’re gonna fight ok

I’ll bring out all your son's we’re glowing like rays
