Lyrics

Since you've been gone, gone away My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray Since you've been gone, it ain't the same Since you've gone away This goes out to my brother I bet you never knew you always pushed me to a higher level Looking up to you in every single endeavor You let me know the type of stock I come from Could be a fight or gun, you weren't the type to run from Nothing, I compare myself to you Or at least contrasted all the things you tried to do I do the opposite so I can fit I felt inadequate 'cause you were so fantastic At everything you did, when you stood, I sit You was the ultimate, rock rocking it While you was in med school, I was hip-hopping it And as we got a little older, we got closer too And you would boast of me and I would boast of you Then you died at 29 and ten years later I'm just able to write a rhyme to try to relate to The pain that I feel inside You would think it would subside but it's still besides Since you've been gone, gone away My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray Since you've been gone, it ain't the same Since you've gone away The blood flowing through my veins Remains a mark of who I am, of where I stand I stand on sacred ground Terry Thomas, God revealed you to me Profound and deep meanings you are to me Some I know now and some presently unseen My older brother, the first to travel the roads of Learning and discerning, yearning and disappointment I relied on your presence to complete who I was to be When God took you, He took a third of me Yet He gave me so much of your insights and traits And dislikes and hobbies and who's to say What else I have in yours along the way That God has intentionally saved For me to discover to help me in the mostly today Since you've been gone, gone away My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray Since you've been gone, it ain't the same Since you've gone away Yo Terry, I love you so much I miss you so much that it hurts Yo Terry, I love you so much I miss you so much, I'm just hurting You missed the birth of Johnny and Zoey and You missed the weddings of me and Joey and For them to not know you, could they really know me? 'Cause your son's a big part of who I be Yo, it only makes sense But we're not, you see Up in the heavens where there's spiritual things There's no bodies, just spiritual beings And everybody's just a soul again Back in their home again where there's no sin Where there's all beginnings and no ends Eternity hard to comprehend But I stare at the sky and wonder when My day will be to go to heaven And live with God forever My Father, my Creator My Savior, my love My day will be to go to heaven And live with God forever My Father, my Creator My Savior, my love Since you've been gone, gone away My soul has been blue, my skies have been gray Since you've been gone, it ain't the same Since you've gone away
