(Hook)
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
As a parent I pray I pray I pray
|
As a father I pray I pray I pray I
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
No way no way no way
|
I can feel that change on the way
|
And we are
|
|
(Verse)
|
I'm holding my daughter and writing this verse
|
To guide and protect you that always come first
|
But someone losing a kid and showing me how short life really is
|
Spread the love, don't try to make things worse
|
My broken heart goes out to those out
|
That lost one too soon, are you lost and confused?
|
It's not the time to be questioning God
|
Don't blame yourself, you did a hell of a job (Impeccable)
|
Just know he's the one that you can run to
|
When a parent's worse nightmare come true
|
But I heard it's hard to sleep at night
|
So I pray for comfort and rest for the people that still depressed
|
Look, never take your life for granted
|
You don't know what trials and tribulations you might be handed
|
It's unpredictable and never understanding
|
And it's foul, no family should have to bury a child
|
So it's
|
|
(Hook)
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
As a parent I pray I pray I pray
|
As a father I pray I pray I pray I
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
No way no way no way
|
I can feel that change on the way
|
|
(Interlude)
|
And we are, praying you get through this
|
We are praying you get through this
|
We praying you get through this
|
Lord knows you gon' get through this
|
Please help this family through this
|
Please help his family through this
|
Please help our families through this
|
Please help his family through this
|
(Yo, rest in paradise)
|
To all the lil' youngsters out there
|
Love and strength to all the families out there
|
Damn right
|
For a child that we lost today)
|
|
(Verse)
|
That we lost today
|
Lord knows it ain't right
|
She can't touch his skin, can't look him in his eyes
|
I pray for peace, I pray for shrimp
|
No child should be killed
|
So when I see somebody down I know exactly how they feel
|
I've been through hell and back
|
But I'm kneeling down and I'm hoping you hear me now
|
Bring them babies back in Nigeria (bring them babies back in Nigeria)
|
And I don't sing, lord knows I don't sing
|
I just want you to feel my passion
|
It don't matter how all this happened
|
We just want you to take some action
|
So it's
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
As a parent I pray I pray I pray
|
As a father I pray I pray I pray I
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
Red balloons for a child that we lost today
|
No way no way no way
|
I can feel that change on the way
|
|
(Interlude)
|
And we are, praying you get through this
|
We are praying you get through this
|
We praying you get through this
|
Lord knows you gon' get through this
|
Dear Lord, please help this family through this
|
Please help his family through this
|
