Tombstones

Ashes to ashes Dust to dust... (x5) [Hook] Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Without you, there is no us And without us, there was no you It's all love baby Through and through (x2) [Verse 1] Meet Molly Mae, they read me like her resume mate We're not accustom to fresh faces nowadays It seems like her friends strayed since the day she passed away Tides rose and for her time froze Look engraved in my chest, read for her lies to rest Such a beautiful beauty or what a shame in a breath Life was cut short like she cut class in the 9th grade Ironic, isn't it? Or so it seems to outsiders But inside her, she just couldn't take the outside Had a baby brewing, belly on a slow rise Couldn't break the news to pops and watch moms cry So she tied a knot and let the chair fly [Hook] [Verse 2] My face blank, I represent the unknowns P.O.W.'s and soldiers who ain't coming home And if they do, it's to lay to rest the physical Millions of us here, the words we share are few A calm cool collective of a nation's protection The collection's regrets, we don't stress one We were the iron clad warriors in hard times And so you'd live free, we'd give our lives Ultimate sacrifice for superficial accolades Not asking for a medal, just a hand above your eye Understand our choice, understand our pride Let us never be forgotten as we roam the sky [Hook] [Verse 3] Mine nothing crazy, ehh... Death of gold age Long life, big fam, left a loving wife They say to live and love once worth a lifetime But he love twice. It put him out his right mind His wife cried a small river on his casket Had his children backwards, we'll call them case baskets This case tragic, enter stage mistress At the wake, she'd unveil what their sins did What makes it worse... She was the sister of the widow Explicit innuendos exchanged with incidentals And that's why when you look me in my face It says the good die young... And this ones aged... [Outro] We may have crossed our path before... We're the tombstones that carry on the tales of the deceased... Give us your kind words... 'Fore it's only a matter of time before we speak for you... Ashes to ashes... Dust to dust... May the Lord watch over us...
