Khary - We Cared lyrics

What a life
What a life, what a life, what a life true
Here to die
Here to die, here to die, here to die too
Where the love? Where the
Love that you shared?
Really wish that you could still be here
I just hope you know that we cared

Yeah
Back with my family, back in Ohio
Used to visit in Summers, but
This no Fourth of July
So
Black car to the funeral home
Greeted arrivals
I'm not even religious
That moment needed a Bible
Pastor holdin' his Bible as
We pay our respects
Read a passage from that shit
That I already forget
I walked up and said some
Shit that I already regret
A lighthearted joke
About how seein' my grandma school close
Hmm, the last grandparent I had left
Funny story: I never knew my grandfather
Wasn't my real grandfather 'til
I was like sixteen
Yeah
Never questioned why we called him Mr
They actually dated some time before she
Settled with my real one
My real one built a house that they lived in
Now it's a Airbnb
Crazy how, once we leave
Someone could rent our place and
Not know of our memories
But back to that rainy day
I stared at that casket
I swear, for a couple moments
Nothin' else mattered
Somethin' in my sorrow felt selfish
Somethin' about tomorrow felt helpless
Knowin', one day
That it would be my turn to be dealt with
I just hope the people that surround me
Find peace, even as their grief is amounting
Damn... as we return to the universe
I'm surely not the last and not the first

No way of preparin' for it
Dressed up with my folks
I was at the burial
Speakin' to a ghost
I was asked to carry her
Teardrops on my nose
I know that you loved me, but
Were we even close?
(No way of preparin' for it) No
Way of preparin' for it
(Dressed up with my folks) Dressed
Up with my folks
(I was at the burial) I was at the burial
(Speakin' to a ghost) Speakin' to a ghost
(I was asked to carry her) I
Was asked to carry her
(Teardrops on my nose) Teardrops on my nose
(I know that you loved me, but)
I know that you loved me
But
(Were we even close?) Were we even close?

Were we even close?
