This is for my people who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We won't ever say bye (no no no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends, and cousins
This is for my people who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky
Cause we won't ever say byeAs a child, there were them times
I didn't get it, but you kept me alive
I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes
On Sunday mornings, and I missed you
But I'm glad we talked through
All them grown folk things separation brings
You never let me know it, you never let it showBecause you loved me, and obviously
There's so much more left to say
If you were with me today, face to face
Never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on I
Wish I could talk to you for awhileMiss you but I try not to cry
As time goes byAnd its true that you've reached a better placeStill, I'd give the world to see your face
And be right here next to you
But it's like you've gone too soonNow the hardest thing to do
Is say bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye
And you never got a chance to see how good I've done
And you never got to see me back at number oneI wish that you were here to celebrate together
I wish that we could spend the holidays together
I remember when you used to tuck me in at nightWith the teddy bear you gave me that I held so tight
I thought you were so strong
You'd make it through whatever
It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone foreverNever knew I could hurt like thisAnd everyday life goes on I
Wish I could talk to you for awhile
Miss you but I try not to cry
As time goes byAnd its true that you've reached a better placeStill, I'd give the world to see your face
And be right here next to you
But it's like you've gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do
Is say bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye, bye byeBye bye, bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye
This is for my people who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby, your man, or your lady
Put your hand way up high
Cause we won't ever say bye (no no no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends, and cousins
This is for my people who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky
Cause we won't ever say bye bye
Never knew I could hurt like this
I never knew it
Every day of my life
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
That as time goes by
And it's true that you've reached a better place
Still I'd give the world to see your face
And be right here next to you
And the hardest thing to do is say
Bye bye
It's hard to say bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
So come on somebody sing it with me, wave your hands up high
Cause this is for my people who just lost somebody
This is for everybody
Who kept their head to the sky
Cause we won't ever say bye bye
