How You Been?

歌詞

Yeah Came to talk to you for a minute You know I miss you But I love you Ain't nobody done for me what you done for me, Ma You know So I'ma do this one here for you Rest in peace Your son It woulda been the greatest thing in the world to see All the possibilities, you made em real for me In '73 opened me to life itself Guard my health and went for delf but needed no one else Allah himself'll only know the reason you're gone And forever I'ma feel a little pain and mourn (Life goes on) Now I'm blessed, so I raise each morn Still I ask every night you help me face the dawn Pray alone inside a stone-cold confusion and weep But only your touch can bring me to peace I can keep a little something of you with me till I reach the end Till then, let me ask you again, how you been? [Chorus] This is cause I'm thinkin of you My love for you will always be true You know I'll never forget you for life Think of you forever Sittin recallin how you caught me, how you broke my fall Heard you scream off in terrors, heard my name you called All of the lessons you taught me, how this life is war How to hold till I be sure that I can go for more Saw me enduring the pain and goin from poor to fame But livin with more to gain is makin me more insane It's a strain, I could tell you, you already know Still I'ma live to tellin you so And I'm sure you know the way that you was handlin was passed to me Askin nobody for nothin, so don't ask for me Look and see how you raised a little nigga to man It was all just a part of the plan Daze back as I gaze back lookin at the fact that you left Funny how I keep hearin footsteps I keep a little something of you with me till I reach the end Till then, let me ask you again, how you been? [Chorus] If I could leave you off with somethin, it would have to be this You know I'm gettin through these obstacles, you will be missed Left a kiss on the forehead, hold through a touch Now I leave that in the streets from rollin up in a dutch Ask the Lord to bless the soul of a child if He may I can only hope that we unite and see you one day And playback after playback, it wasn't fair But still and all I never say that, remember here You got a place inside a nigga, where you end, I begin Till then, let me tell you again, how you been? [Chorus] Do you know I'm thinking of you, Mama Don't you know I think about you all the time [Chorus] I love you, Mommy Word
