I Gotta Stay (Explicit)-Big K.R.I.T.

[Chorus:] I told her, you should go on, it's better that way I wish I could come with you, but I gotta stay But I gotta stay But I gotta stay [Big K.R.I.T.:] All aboard, I heard 'em call your name I knew you got your ticket, now you on your way And it was hard to watch you wave goodbye I'll write you here and there with no need to reply It's just I lost a good friend in a time of need Like forever would be better, but this time you're free Hate you left us, kind of selfish just to think that Way You going home, don't worry, what you probably would Say But yeah it hurts, but I smile at the thought You at peace in your mind, no longer ache in your heart Finish and start, rise with the sun Finally to hear your father say, servant we're done I strive to be half of what you was I'm just hoping that I can carry on your love And I regret all the times I had to leave you I promise I'm a see you when I see you [Chorus] [Big K.R.I.T.:] Yo, your motherly hands used to usher Sunday mornings Played the tambourine so well Reminiscing on my granddaddy She'd tears as you looked at his pictures on the shelf Phone ringing every day, friends gone away Wishing you could go, but you had to stay I sit and cry with you, soon the feelings up and pass Aware one day that you'd pack your bags Turned to me and asked, don't fret when I leave This earthly body of mine done did all of it's deeds Crawled till it walked and held all it could breathe Carry on what I taught, you was given through He To you, from me, in times like this believe I got a call like you used to get just the other day They told me you'd gone home to stay [Chorus] [Singing: Big K.R.I.T.] Now I know what you meant when you used to sing If I had wings, wings, wings I'd fly away, I'd fly away Lord, if I had wings, wings, wings I'd fly away, I'd fly away [Chorus]
