DMX feat. Faith Evans - I Miss You Lyrics

Lyrics I Miss You - DMX feat. Faith Evans



I know that my Savior lives
And at the end He will stand on this Earth
My flesh may be destroyed
But from this body I will see God
Yes, I will see Him for myself
And I long for that moment
Grandma, I really miss you and it ain't been the same
I drop a tear when I hear your name
Mary Ella Holloway, why you gotta be so far away?
You used to say "Don't worry, it's gone be okay"
But it ain't, it's like, when you left, you took the Lord with you
Why could not I come when He came to get you?
Damn, I really miss you, I had to say it again
I remember the time when I was like, ten
Crept up in the neighbor's yard
Bein' hard headed, you told me I would get it, you said it
Boy did I get it, but after you spanked me, you hugged me
Kissed me on my forehead and told me that you loved me
And I saw that it hurt you more than it hurt me
I thought how bad could this hurt be?
I know now, that's why it's only done out of love
What I wouldn't give for one more hug from grandma
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
But I'm about to say a couple of family members gonna hate me
But I'm gon' let you know what's been goin' on lately
You know since you left a lot of things 'bout your kids done changed
Yah Jackie's still crazy, and I don't know what's up with James
Ain't seen Jerry in a while, you know he walk like you
And Rene's back in jail, you know she talk like you
But Riculah's doin' real good now, she workin'
Rhonda's still runnin' around, trickin', jerkin'
Buckeye's buggin', he done lost his mind
And Jarvis back outta jail, doin' fine
Kylie, he done changed it ain't all about his self
As for my father, well, that's somethin' else
Butt that's my dog he hold his grandmother down
My great grandmother, makin' a lot of trips outta town
But that's a good thing, if only I could hear you say once more
Oh Lord the comfort it would bring her
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
You left behind a mother, eleven kids and eleven grand kids
And since then two of your grand kids then had kids
I had a boy named Tacoma, Xavier's brother
That's right, it was Xavier that made you a great grandmother
I thank you for the best times of my life
I thank you for when you first met her, accepted and lovin' my wife
I thank you for those Sunday dinners, they were vital
I thank you for my life, I thank you for the Bible
I thank you for the song that you sang in the morning
"Amazing Grace" while I'm yawning
I thank you for the two beatings you gave me
Is that I know somewhere along the line
The lessons I learned from those two beatin's saved me
When you died, I cried like a baby, I begged the Lord to take me
'Cause no one else could give me what you gave me
And in life when everything comes to an end
I pray that I go to Heaven to see you again, Amen
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
Baby, it's gon' be okay
(She used to tell me that)
Baby, it's gon' be okay now
(I really miss hearin')
Amazing grace
How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see, yeah yeah
