I know that my savior lives

And at the end, he will stand on this earth

My flesh may be destroyed, yet 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 yo' name

Mary Ella Holloway, why you gotta be so far away?

Used to say, "Don't worry, it's gon' be okay"

But it ain't - it's like when you left, you took the Lord witchu

Why couldn't 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, yeah, bein hard headed

You told me I would get it - you said it!

And boy did I get it, but after you spanked me, you hugged me

Kissed me on my forehead, told me that you love 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 mo' hug, from grandma



[Chorus: Faith Evans]

Baby it's gon' be okay (she used to tell me that)

Baby it's gon' be okay (I really miss hearin)

Baby it's gon' be okay (she used to tell me that)

Baby it's gon' be okay (I really miss hearin)

What I'm about to say a couple of family members is gon' hate me

But I'ma let you know what's been goin on lately

Now you know since you left, a lot of things witcho kids done changed

Yeah Jackie's still crazy, don't know what's up with James

Ain't seen Jerry in a while, you know he walk like you

And Renee's back in jail, you know she talk like you

Riculah's(?) doin real good now, she workin

Rhonda's still runnin around, tri
