Song for Beatrice

[Intro (TAN)]

Oh, I thought I'd let you know
Sometimes I lose control
Oh, I thought I'd let you know
Sometimes I lose control

[Verse 1 (Deë 2094)]:

My favourite character back then
My mother, my aunty, my best friend
My wonderful guardian angel
Saw me astray then gave me a backhand

She fed me and clad me and she said
From the bottom of her heart that I'd be great
I promised myself I'd never let down
I wanna live up to what she said

I love her so dеar I wish that
She would come back to life and jus' see that
I'm pushin' mysеlf, I'm learnin' each day;
Oh boy I know that she'd be glad

A song for Auntie Beatrice
Coz life ain't cream and peaches
I'd give up anything for one more chance for her to hear this

[Chorus (TAN)]:

Oh, I thought I'd let you know
Sometimes I lose control
I thought I'd let you know...

[Verse 2 (Deë 2094)]:

The drugs, the women, the pressure
The thugs that's killin' my peers out
My mom be breathing in my neck
My landlord around and wantin' his rent now

My mama done called me jailbird
That woman done called me a deadbeat
She say some hurtful things that make me think
Sometimes that she hates me

My dada done left but he still calls
He's always online for my videos
He say he proud and he pray every day
I go hard in each song

A song for Auntie Beatrice
Coz life ain't cream and peaches
I'd give up anything for one more chance for her to hear this

[Chorus (TAN)]:

Oh, I thought I'd let you know
Sometimes I lose control
I thought I'd let you know...

[Verse 3 (Deë 2094)]:

Sometimes I wanna trade places
Sometimes I wanna erase this
Sometimes I wish I was brainless;
Feelin' no pain, think nothin' is heinous

Sometimes I wanna give up, but music is life
I wanna be one of the greatest
Wanna have money, don't wanna be famous
I wanna live lavish, I wanna be paid

Sometimes my friends are the best
Because of Carla the Deë blessed
Coz Carla told me 'bout Jesus
Man Carla taught me forgiveness

A song for Auntie Beatrice
Coz life ain't cream and peaches
I'd give up anything for one more chance for us to jam this!

[Chorus (TAN)]:

Oh, I thought I'd let you know
Sometimes I lose control
I thought I'd let you...

[Bridge (TAN)]:

Thought I'd let you know
That I lose control
That I miss you so much
I even wrote this song

Aunt I'm left alone
Ever since you're gone
I've been wondering, suffering
Miss your voice...

Your laughter, the banter
The warmness surrounding your presence
My bad scar, more laughter
The memories we'd have at the park

God I beg you, Lord
When I end my road
When you take my soul
That you take control...

[Outro (TAN)]:

I thought I'd let you know
That I lose control
Please take control...
