On that day
That day in July
Was the first time I saw my daddy
break down and cry
It was late at night
When he told me the news
That someone we knew
Had pasted away
But not just any old person
It was someone… we loved
She was someone special
This woman helped raise
Me and my brothers
She was there for us
If her sister, my mom
Needed anything
She was there rain or shine
Noon or night
I think we all cried that day
But in my mind
I still remember
My daddy breaking down to cry…
