ONLY YOU KNOW BEST
Verse1
Ancestral pain
The death of my granny made the whole earth quake
Yea, I quivered that day
Her beauty was sane
Madly abate my memories of laddish things that I said
Grandma, why does fire burn that way?
How comes the whole world knows my name?
I just couldn't comprehend
A few of my friends came over that day
Then we played fairytales
The memories' a bliss
The pictures' a paint now stuck in my heard
While staring at the grave
Green flowers covered all the earth she was laid
Wasn't what we wished but she died anyways.

Will I pay for the candles?
Will life pay for all the lives lost?
Can I at least say a prayer
Let the world say Amen
Hallelujah to the wise one
Will I pay for the candles?
Will life pay for all the lives lost?
Can I at least say a prayer
Let the world say Amen
Hallelujah to the wise one
Only you know best
Verse2
2009 I was rocking on my jeans
Heading straight to town with a pocket full of bills
Met the Parkers and their Benz
Yea, the shit is what it seems
Their daughter was a beauty
Cos she shone like a Queen
Two years later I was trying to reach her phone
A man picked the phone and said she died days ago
I couldn't understand it
So I called up her mom
She said 'affirmative'
Tears rolling down to her cheeks
Forgive me cos I loved her with the whole of my strength
Her death is my paralysis
I couldn't even stand
Where did she go
Cos am dying to be with her
Life is so cruel
And the timing is so wicked
I stop the chasing after cravings
Cos my heart is such a baby's
Nothing is ever everlasting
Even on the Alabama
Will I erase all the thoughts of you and me?
The moments that we shared?
No, its never gonna end.

Hallelujah to the wise one
Will I pay for the candles?
Will life pay for all the lives lost?
Can I at least say a prayer
Let the world say Amen
Hallelujah to the wise one
