A cry for my buddy gone
If all your family gone (gone)
If their family gone
Lets go
[Verse 1: Bullet)
I was told, you never get to know whatchu got until it’s gone
Since I was a small, I didn’t know I had a cigarette on my nose
Time is of the essence of these days it was foretold
Now am old, is the end of days the cause?
Sittin’ on the veranda with the boys listenin’ to the news
Followin’ up on the statistics, got me closely in tune
There’s a killer in town “n” am scared of my bro now, how do I get around
They said I should be homebound
But seems like there’s no place left to hide
The church is dyin’ too, then who’s supposed to lead the blind?
Governments are stressed if it’s game of chess then its checkmate
Been workin’ from home coz was being protected from my workmate
The only person I used to call on, shoulder to lean on, now he falls
No one to mourn with, coz all the homes have funerals
My head down, my hands on my toes, a cry for all the innocent souls
[Chorus: Mo]
Ooh oooh
It’s a cry for the departed, till we meet again
Till we meet again
Yeah yeah hey
[Verse 2: Bullet]
I’m losin’ my breath, feelin’ these chest pains
Wanna leave for the hospital, my son in case I don’t return
Be careful of what you touch, take care of your mother
I am in a rush, got no time, where my mask at?
Police may beat me up
Along the way so as I drive, I make sure my windows I roll up
Even if I return, I hear there is discrimination
Is my time done? Just elimination of my generation?
As soon as I reach the tent, caskets come in tens, and am in tense
Misappropriator of our taxes, again abused the funds, stop!!
How do I believe when the minister says I will make it out?
Just doing his job
So I lose my hope again for tomorrow
Come see my face one last time by the window, on a machine
The first time my every breath got measured
God give me lots in case I miss this vaccine
[Chorus: Mo]
Ooh oooh
It’s a cry for the departed, till we meet again
Till we meet again
Yeah yeah hey
[Verse 3: Bullet]
Sounds like I can try to hide when it’s at night
But seems like my face can still be seen under starlight
Is it like this killer got a satellite?
Coz am like, you hate to see me alive or just a strong appetite?
Where tha, musicians at, where the actors at?
Where tha, politicians at, where the pastors at?
Where’s the tradition in which we shook hands?
Our stadium, an injunction only so we can dance?
So teach me new ways on how to express my love now
Can’t see friends, visit the sick in a lockdown
Both parents on oxygen then the father dies
Mother mournin’ on social media coz she’s on quarantine
It was her hope, one day they’d meet again
But it’s a blow in her home
Front-liners fightin’ daily non-stop it’s a war
Redefines their passion and what they stand for,
And that they really heard the call
[Chorus: Bullet & Mo]
Laying wreaths, laying wreaths
Laying wreaths for the departed, (till we)
Till we meet again
Laying wreaths
Laying wreaths for the departed, (till we)
Till we meet again
Ooh oooh
All my brothers gone,
All my fathers gone
All my sisters gone,
All mothers gone
Just gone like that,
Gone down like that
Way down like
Laying wreaths
All my brothers gone (gone)
All my fathers gone
All my sisters gone (gone)
All mothers gone
Just gone like that
Gone down like that
Way down like, uh
Laying wreaths
