Yeah, Lil' different this time, Got my grandfather on my mind, you know Alright, yeah
I took a silent moment in remembrance of him An angler of the soul, a true fisherman of men I wrote a couple words and I'mma send them on the winds I'm sure that you and god are talking, skim them when you can I realize you're gone but I know you left your recipe We're living in your words and we're basking in your legacy Rest in peace for now we'll see you later on If nothing else, we'll see you every time we play this song I say to ya'll he caught us all like the cod, life was hard But he got it right with God, and now he's on the other side See him in my mother eyes And if you will be together again when the sun arrives Yes your past, you ran away, and that's too bad I value what you taught, you're the dad I never had Some of your words, honestly, I left them in the past No they didn't all stick, but surely the message has
My grandfather never bought a lot of gifts But he handed me a rod and he taught me how to fish
I'm a fisherman now Your livin' through your grandson I ain't sitting around cuz that'll leave he hamstrung Its like I got a son that I gotta raise So I gotta grind, I ain't got it made That means I gotta work, gotta keep a job and Means I gotta grow gotta leap the frog and That means I gotta pray, find a peace with god and Fishin' with discipline I gotta keep the rod man You taught me well grandpop, I'm on the wagon now And I won't let this whole world come and drag me down It gets hard but I ain't really one for backing out So I'mma live for now and come and join you after awhile Yes you passed, you went away, and that's too bad I value what you taught, you're the dad I never had Some of your words, honestly, I left em in the past No they didn't all stick but surely the message has
My grandfather never bought a lot of gifts But he handed me a rod and taught me how to fish
Yeah, well alright, ha This is for my grandfather man Just gonna let the beat breathe, ya know? Yeah, How that sayin' go? Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day Teach a man to fish, he'll eat for a lifetime Alright, out.
