Lyrics
This one's for you Kev, you probably won't hear it
They said you got two weeks left, the doctor couldn't clear it
The leukemia's weakened you, you feel like it's defeated you
You can't even speak now, you know how that chemo do
Is it the end for you, Kevin? No
It's got your body but it ain't got your soul
God's got better plans for you, he's the man for you
Gave me a wake-up call, so I'm thanking you
You said you need awareness, well I'mma get it for you
Spread a message for you, send a blessing for you
Just stay positive before it takes you
I'm just sorry I couldn't save you
Life's so short, ain't you forgetting
You think life's all good? Well it can change in a second
Whenever it's my time, whenever it arrives
I just hope I'm remembered when I die (man, I swear)
High up from a bird's eye view
It's been cold but they still came through
Look how strong that the roses
Roses grew
High up from a bird's eye view
How the stars working out for you
Look how strong that the roses
Roses grew, yeah
Mum planted three roses
In front of the garden
Each summer
They bloom for you, yeah
We pray that you'll see them
From wherever God's keeping
God's keeping
God's keeping you, yeah
Family over everything
What am I talking 'bout? Family is everything
And we don't speak every day
But you know you can phone me for anything
And I know I can't change the fact
They're sending you to war, I pray you make it back
Don't worry, you'll be home in a sec
Got me staring at this picture we took before you left
One thing to another
You're my cousin but I love you like my brother
Looking out for me when nobody else did
Need to stop worrying, but I can't help it
Didn't wanna go but you didn't have a choice
And every time you speak, I hear the stress in your voice
But don't stress too much, you'll be back soon
Think about that pretty girl you're coming back to
High up from a bird's eye view
It's been cold but they still came through
Look how strong that the roses
Roses grew
High up from a bird's eye view
How the stars working out for you
Look how strong that the roses
Roses grew, yeah
Mum planted three roses
In front of the garden
Each summer
They bloom for you, yeah
We pray that you'll see them
From wherever God's keeping
God's keeping
God's keeping you, yeah
Mum planted three roses
In front of the garden
Each summer
They bloom for you
Please pray that you see them
Wherever God's keeping
God's keeping
God's keeping you
