[DMX] I know that my savior lives And at the end, He will stand on this earth My flesh may be destroyed Yet from this body, I will see God
Yes, I will see Him for myself And I long for that moment
[DMX] Grandma, I really miss you, and it ain´t been the same I drop a tear when I hear your name Mary Ella Holloway, why you gotta be so far away? Used to say, "Don´t worry, it´s gon´ be okay" But it ain´t â it´s like when you left, you took the Lord with you Why couldn´t I come when He came to get you? Damn, I really miss you⌠I had to say it again I remember the time when I was like 10 Crept up in the neighbor´s yard, yeah, bein´ hard headed You told me I would get it â you said it! And boy did I get it, but after you spanked me, you hugged me
Kissed me on my forehead, told me that you love me And I saw that it hurt you more than it hurt me I thought, how bad could this hurt be? I know now, that´s why it´s only done out of love What I wouldn´t give for one mo´ hug, from grandma

You left behind a mother, eleven kids, eleven grand-kids And since then, two of your grand-kids done had kids I got a boy named Tacoma, Xavier´s brother That´s right, Xavier´s made you a great-grandmother I thank you for the best times of my life I thank you for when you first met her acceptin´ and lovin´ my wife I thank you for those Sunday dinners, they were vital I thank you for my life, I thank you for the Bible I thank you for the songs that you´d sing in the mornin´ (Amazing GraceâŚ) while I´m yawnin´ I thank you for the two beatings you gave me
´Cause I know somewhere along the line the lesson I learned from the two beatings saved me And when you died I cried like a baby, I begged the Lord to take me ´Cause no one else could give me what you gave me But life, like everything, comes to an end I pray I go to Heaven to see you again â Amen
