A song dedicated to ST and a hope to end senseless violence. (Song by Ki-Mani)

[praise_gibbs]

To me, this song just says a lot of how I feel about this whole ST tragedy. It is completely senseless. Not because he was a Redskin. Not because he was a father, a son, a fiance. But because he did nothing to bring this on. All he did was bust his ass to do what he loved. To play a kids game for a kings ransom.

However, this song is not entirely about ST though. The sad thing is, this type of tragedy happens a lot. Certainly it has a different 'plot' or 'motive', if you will. But, each one is just as senseless as the next.

About the song though.. For me? This song just hits home in more ways than one. Having lost family members and friends to senseless acts.

This song is based on pure emotion. I hope you guys like it. This dude has a lot of talent. You can just tell a lot was put into this song. Having read a lot of posts here on ES about this tragedy.. I would even say that he put our thoughts into words.

What say you?

(This song is dedicated to Sean Taylor. And anybody and everybody, that's lost someone)

Woke up this morning and I'm still in disbelief

Yo what's this craziness on my TV

I guess even God needs a tailor-made safety

So now your free (so free) You're so free (yeah)

Like a bird spreads its wings..

So beautiful, and graceful

God called your number man

And he called your soul back home

No man knows the hour or the day

How it's gonna happen or the time or the place

One squeeze of the hand and you just fell asleep

You didn't die, you just moved on

Like when you were a kid, you just went home

And now and on, I celebrate your life

When your candle burned out

God turned on the lights

I hear your voice, saying just be strong

Got fixes on, if you just hold on

You didn't leave us, no you just went home

When your candle burned out

God turned all his lights on

( I'mma see you again)

(Cant wait to see you again)

(I'mma see you again)

I've got so much pain..

In my heart..

I can't think..

I can't breathe..

I can't sleep..

I can't speak..

But I don't wanna talk about it

So many things that I would say

If you only had one more day

....Just like a bird

Flies away (Flies away)

Flies away (Fly away)

Just fly away

And since no man knows

How it ends or how it goes

You squeezed a hand and you went on home

You didn't die, you just moved on

Like when you were a kid, you just went home

And now and on, I celebrate your life

When your candle burned out

God turned on the lights (and)

I hear your voice, saying just be strong

Got fixes on, if you just hold on

You didn't leave us, you just went home

When your candle burned out

God turned all the lights on

From on top to the underdog

I will graduate from this place

But your face I need to see ASAP

Patience is wearing faith crack

Down little to nothing

But glad that the blood still pumpin', in my veins

Cause one change and it could all end so sudden (Haah)

Suddenly, I wasn't prepared

I wasn't equipped

I asked for a lot of things

But, I prayed for nothing but strength

To endure the fight..

The life..

This war!

But the battle is not mine (not mine)

It's yours!

You didn't die, you just moved on

Like when you were a kid, you just went home

And now and on, I celebrate your life (I celebrate your life)

When your candle burned out

God turned on the lights

I hear your voice, saying just be strong (Sean if you can hear me)

Got fixes on, if you just hold on (God let him hear me)

You didn't leave us, no you just went home

When your candle burned out

God turned all his lights on

Man, that was really good. Thanks for something else out there to help immortalize the one and only.....forever.... Sean Taylor #21.

I had gone about a week and a half without crying but this brought out the tears again wow that was painful.

[Cheers, Beers and Mountaineers]

Good song.

Speaking of which, the other day I was listening to 93.9 and a song came on that I think had Lil Wayne in it that had a line "Hail to the Skins, RIP Sean Taylor." Anyone know what I'm talking about? I don't know whether it was done by a local group or was a song that actually featured Lil Wayne. (didn't know who the other rapper was)

[Ghost of]

CBM, don't know about this but it's nice to hear this song.

Thanks for the comments guys. I will be sending this link to Ki-Mani, as it was an agreement that I had with him. So, if any of you want to give props to him for this song, go right ahead and comment.
