Lyrics Letter To My Godfather (from The Black Godfather) - Pharrell Williams

We have to love him now
While he is still here
For all that, all that he's done
Before the moment disappears
We can still hug him now
After all these years
'Cause when the darkness, when the darkness comes
He's our chandelier
To bring the light
To bring the light, yeah
I'm sorry if this is a bore
But I wasn't sittin' in here before
So I toast him tonight
Wooh, uh
When your trajectory was off
And couldn't find true north, just lost
He would say, "Protect him, at all cost"
Then they would hang up the calls
For we, we can still hug him now
After all these years
'Cause when the darkness comes
He's our chandelier
To bring the light (Aye)
To bring the light, yeah
I'm sorry if this is a bore
But I wasn't sittin' in here before
So I toast him tonight
Wooh, uh
'Cause when the darkness comes
And you know it'll come, you know it'll come, but when it does
Just know, he's our chandelier
Oh, to bring the light (Aye)
To bring the light, yeah
I'm sorry if this is a bore
But I wasn't sittin' in here before
So I toast him tonight
Wooh, uh
