A story of treasuring the memories and experiences you share with the people you hold dear, In a time where so many are grieving over loved ones who have been lost during this pandemic I try to wrap the emotions of both grief and joy wrapped up in a R&B Ballad.

lyrics

(Verse 1)
Grandma used to pick us up
Tryna steer clear from the drugs
We were high on life
It was the best of times

(Verse 2)
Didn’t care about nothing else
We were shooting hoops for ourselves
Watching NBA
Dreaming of a better place

(Pre Chorus)
We wanted a happy ending
There wasn’t a happy beginning
Guess some things never change
But please

(Hook)
Don’t you dare let me
Fade Away, Fade away
Fade Away, Fade away

(Rap)
I always knew that when I was gone that I wanted to leave a legacy
Hoping that you will always remember me
Pressures, challenges, setbacks are all opportunities
To grow, and rise that’s what I shared with my community
On court, off court
Love family, love sport
Time is short
I poured my life for that Concorde
And fly away
I say tomorrow’s goodbyes today

(Pre Chorus)
We wanted a happy ending
There wasn’t a happy beginning
Guess some things never change
But please

(Chorus)
Don’t you dare let me
Fade Away, Fade away
Fade Away, Fade away

(Middle 8)
Feels bittersweet
I never thought I would say this from you to me
But heaven was calling, tomorrow’s never promised
Is this really a good mourning(morning)

I hope somewhere down the line
That you will heal with time
And Wherever you go
I’m with you
And I hope that you know that

These memories will live on and on
These memories will live on and on
It might be hard but keep holding on
Let this remind you
I’m right beside you
I’m saying

(Chorus)
Don’t you dare let me
Fade Away, Fade away
Fade Away, Fade away

(Chorus)
Don’t you dare let me
Fade Away, Fade away
Fade Away, Fade away
(These memories will live on and on)
