[male
vocals] (
Mmm,
yeah)
It’
s
a
heavy
quiet
today,
Boakye-Dankwa
Wish
you
were
here
to
see
the
sun
rise
July
thirty-first,
the
calendar
turns
to
gold
But
the
story
feels
different,
a
truth
I’
m
told
I’
m
looking
at
the
chair
where
you
used
to
sit
Trying
to
process
this,
trying
to
handle
it
The
world
keeps
spinning
but
it
feels
so
slow
I’
ve
got
so
much
love
that
I
wanted
to
show
But
heaven
needed
you,
they
called
your
name
And
nothing
down
here
is
ever
gonna
feel
the
same
Boakye-Dankwa,
we’
re
singing
for
you
tonight
Even
though
you’
ve
stepped
into
that
holy
light
Your
birthday
passed
but
your
spirit
stays
near
I’
m
wiping
the
salt
from
every
single
tear
Oh,
Boakye-Dankwa,
you’
re
forever
in
our
heart
Even
when
the
distance
tears
us
all
apart
Yeah,
you’
re
forever
in
our
heart
Michael’
s
here,
just
reflecting
on
the
days
Of
your
laughter
and
your
calm
and
gentle
ways
It’
s
bitter,
it’
s
sweet,
it’
s
a
hollow
kind
of
ache
Knowing
you’
re
resting
for
your
own
soul’
s
sake
Jehovah
called
you
home,
out
of
the
rain
Leaving
us
behind
to
navigate
the
pain
But
I
know
you’
re
watching
from
a
better
place
I’
m
trying
to
keep
the
memory
of
your
face
Boakye-Dankwa,
we’
re
singing
for
you
tonight
Even
though
you’
ve
stepped
into
that
holy
light
Your
birthday
passed
but
your
spirit
stays
near
I’
m
wiping
the
salt
from
every
single
tear
Oh,
Boakye-Dankwa,
you’
re
forever
in
our
heart
Even
when
the
distance
tears
us
all
apart
I
hope
the
angels
celebrate
your
day
In
that
beautiful,
perfect,
heavenly
way
No
more
sorrow,
no
more
birthday
blues
Just
the
peace
that
you
finally
get
to
choose (
Come
here,
baby,
I
miss
you)
Yeah,
you’
re
safe
now,
you’
re
free
now (
Come
here,
baby,
I
miss
you)
Yeah,
you’
re
safe
now,
you’
re
free
now
So
happy
birthday,
though
you’
re
far
away
We’
re
lighting
a
candle,
come
what
may
Your
legacy
lingers
in
the
things
you
said
I’
m
keeping
these
memories
inside
my
head
Michael’
s
holding
steady,
trying
to
be
strong
But
Boakye-Dankwa,
boy,
the
road
is
long
We’
ll
see
you
again,
yeah,
we’
ll
meet
at
the
gate
Until
that
day,
we’
ll
just
stand
and
wait
Boakye-Dankwa,
we’
re
singing
for
you
tonight
Even
though
you’
ve
stepped
into
that
holy
light
Your
birthday
passed
but
your
spirit
stays
near
I’
m
wiping
the
salt
from
every
single
tear
Oh,
Boakye-Dankwa,
you’
re
forever
in
our
heart
Even
when
the
distance
tears
us
all
apart
Forever
in
our
hearts,
Boakye-Dankwa
Yeah,
rest
easy,
rest
well
Until
we
meet
again,
brother (
Oh,
mmm)
We
love
you (
I
need
you)
