During the making of this album, I received the unfortunate news that Nipsey Hussle was murdered in Los Angeles It really hurt me, and then the outcry and love and support after his death was incredible But it inspired me to write this song Every day we lose somebody close to us, a loved one And only then do we seem to find the time The way to tell how much we care about them Don't tell me that you miss me Don't tell me that you love me Don't tell me that you need me Don't wait to tell me that you love me When I'm gone (This is our life) When I'm gone (This is my time!) Don't wait until I'm dead Until these words are said Don't wait until I die Then start to fake cry Tell the people that you love, that you love 'em now Show the people you appreciate just how How much they mean to ya How much you care how real it is SongtexteThey're right in front of ya Your family Your wife Your kids Don't wait for tragedy to tell 'em how you really feel Don't wait Tomorrow might be too fuckin' late When I'm gone This is our life Don't wait to tell me that you miss me When I'm gone This is our time Don't wait to tell me that you love me When I'm gone This is our life Don't wait to tell me that you need me When I'm gone This is our life Don't wait to tell me that you need me When I'm gone This is our time I'll be lost without you How do I make it right? How do I take back all the time I've wasted alone And how would it make you feel? How would it make you feel? Knowing you had the chance and let it slip away Don't wait until I'm dead You've got friends Tell 'em that you care You've got family Tell 'em how you feel Don't wait to say how great a guy I was and all that bullshit Seems like every day death comes unexpectedly Seems like yesterday when my man was sitting next to me So many things I could've said and that we could've done The reaper's coming but I never thought he'd be the one I don't do funerals, don't wanna see you in no box I miss my homies, and my love for them will never stop Don't have regret, and wait until your loved one dies Now it's your chance, tell them while they're still alive Too many people pass away every single day And we don't show them how we feel until it's too late I appreciate, or love is something we won't say We delay it 'til they're gone and say it at their grave We delay it 'til they're gone and say it at their grave 'Til they're gone and say it at their grave Aus Songtexte Mania
