Sunset Over College Park

[Chorus]
Tellin' me that it's ok, sounds just like lies
How am I supposed to live without you, I'll try...
All of it was hard, so why is it so hard to cry?
All the weight I've lifted, ain't heavy as this heart of mine

Life ends but love doesn't
You gave your love out in abundance
I wish i would've taken you out to London
I wish I could flew you to Paris
The lakes out there hit different than Lake Merritt
I therapist be telling me, I should be transparent
Cause there's healing inside thеse feelings I'm sharing

Sunset over collеge park
Light the sky even when it's dark outside
Sunset over college park

I'd rather give than take, I'm a philanthropist
I've been a light in my city, I keep the candle lit
God wouldn't have put it on me if I can't handle it
I ain't pray the rain to stop
I prayed to learn to dance through it
Life can't get no tougher than that phone call when the cancer hit
I seen my Mama cry, that the first time I seen mt Daddy tears
Looked you in you face telling you ''it'll be okay''
Then we dropped to a bended knee and we prayed for an hour straight
You taught me a lot of things, but the final lesson was faith
Let Gods will be done. You would tell me that everyday
I try to see from the angle you seen it, but shit I can't
If they tellin' me God is love, How can he do that to a saint?
First round of chemo was working
At least we thought it did
Paired with holistic medicine, that they was offering
We went from mile walks at the marina, just to jog it in
To slow strolls in the backyard, learning to walk again
And you took every step with a lot of love
It used to trip me out
Your mind was stronger than your body was
My Daddy held a grudge with God, like why does it gotta be us?
A million prayers and all the loving words was not enough
You still managed to reel him in, like you've always done
We know the spirit doesn't perish, when the body does
You told me "lean not on your own understanding, And soon I'll understand that God is love."
Yeah, God is love

Tellin' me that it's ok, sounds just like lies
How am I supposed to live without you, I'll try...
All of it was hard, so why is it so hard to cry?
All the weight I've lifted, ain't heavy as this heart of mine

Life ends but love doesn't
You gave your love out in abundance
I wish I would've taken you out to London
I wish I could flew you to Paris
The lakes out there hit different than Lake Merritt
I therapist be telling me, I should be transparent
Cause there's healing inside these feelings I'm sharing

Sunset over college park
Light the sky even when it's dark outside
Sunset over college park

[Outro: Linda Wright (Mom)]
"I trusted on you, I depended on you, relying on you, I ask you to bless my son Faraji, Keep him strong and healthy. Bless Otis, In the might name of Jesus I pray, Amen."

(Try to get some rest)

"I'd like to say thank you, Lord. Anyway, I'm done. It took me a lot to do this, but I'm done. I love everybody. I love all of you, and thank you so much for praying for. How you turn this live thing off? I'm sitting in the sun, and this little head gettin ready to start drippin. I ain't goin nowhere."
