"Pillars" lyrics

"Pillars"

I just wanted you to know
I love you and I am so glad you're my grandson

Every time I'm home, she my say my name, name, name
Grandma want her earrings, she so vain, vain, vain
With time, I'll bring flowers to her grave, grave, grave
Every morning, kiss her forehead when I
Yeah
Say my name, name, name
Grandma want her earrings, she so vain, vain, vain
With time, I'll bring flowers to her grave, grave, grave
Every morning, kiss her forehead when I wake, wake, wake

Audrey hold me tight, she see my grandfather face
My Mama is her baby, don't care what nobody say
Mama, Papa, living grace
You see it in her walk and her talk
So the same, so patient, so sane
And when he passed, I was thinking no way
Could have sworn he'll live forever
Now this shit just ain't the same
I know so many lost they grandfathers but it ain't the same
This the man who taught me how to be a man
This the man that made my Mama
That so graciously birthed me underwater
Water bearing, know I shouldn't be hurting
I'm grateful
Con tiempo, I'ma break through
Face truth, make due of the worst
Take one just to live by the second, know for sure
Shh, for sure, by the third
I swear I knew but by the fourth one
I saw it all converge
The surface still like nothing to the earth
What's deepest psychologies
Reverse my weakness, I had to cry
I let it hurt, I mean it
Mama made a man of his word
Had my feet on the earth, magnetic pull

Say my name, name, name
Grandma want her earrings, she so vain, vain, vain
With time, I'll bring flowers to her grave, grave, grave
Every morning, kiss her forehead when I
Yeah, yeah
Every time I'm home, she my say my name, name, name
Grandma want her earrings, she so vain, vain, vain
With time, I'll bring flowers to her grave, grave, grave
Every morning, kiss her forehead when I wake

Be happy, don't let anybody steal your joy, okay?
You're a great young man
You are an asset to this world
And don't you ever forget it

And when I wake, yeah
Bye bye
Every time I'm home, she say my name, name, name
Grandma want her earrings, she so vain, vain, vain
With time, I'll bring flowers to her grave, grave, grave
Every morning, kiss her forehead when I
Yeah, yeah
Every time I'm home, she say my name, name, name
Grandma want her earrings, she so vain, vain, vain
I'll bring flowers to her grave, grave, grave
Every morning, kiss her forehead when I wake
