Cold Grave Calls

[Verse 1]
Pops on the wall, still lit in my head
Empty front seat, and the news said dead
Same black hoodie, same blunt in my fist
But the room feel heavy when I close my lips

Mama keep callin’, I don’t know what to say
I been losin’ pieces every damn day
Lil’ bro ask why the good ones go first
I said I don’t know, but that question hurt

[Pre-Chorus]
And the sky look low tonight
Like it want one more life
I keep countin’ these names
Then I bite my tongue and hide

[Chorus]
Death keep callin’ my name
Death keep callin’ my name
I seen love turn cold so fast
Now I hold my pain in chains
Death keep callin’ my name
Death keep callin’ my name
If I smile, it’s paper thin
I’m just tryin’ to make it last
(hold on)
(hold on)

[Verse 2]
Fresh white flowers by the same brick steps
Same old block, but it don’t feel blessed
He was here last week, now he gone for good
Now his mama cryin’ in the neighborhood

I got scars where the praise used to be
Got a hard face, but it still bleeds
I don’t need no crown if it come with graves
I seen too much dirt in these young boy days

[Pre-Chorus]
And the sky look low tonight
Like it want one more life
I keep countin’ these names
Then I bite my tongue and hide

[Chorus]
Death keep callin’ my name
Death keep callin’ my name
I seen love turn cold so fast
Now I hold my pain in chains
Death keep callin’ my name
Death keep callin’ my name
If I smile, it’s paper thin
I’m just tryin’ to make it last
(hold on)
(hold on)

[Bridge]
Tell my people I was here
Tell ’em I was never soft
Every tear I never shed
Still got caught up in the dust

If I go before my time
Leave my truth in every line
’Cause the hurt don’t disappear
It just learn to stand in line

[Chorus]
Death keep callin’ my name
Death keep callin’ my name
I seen love turn cold so fast
Now I hold my pain in chains
Death keep callin’ my name
Death keep callin’ my name
If I smile, it’s paper thin
I’m just tryin’ to make it last
(hold on)
(hold on)
