I left my grandparent's house with no tears in my eyes
Didn't realize this is the last time I would see him alive
Went home normal went happy not caring at all

That was before i woke up to the worse phone call
All my life i couldn't believe it, thought it was a joke
Momma told me get in the car, grandpa had a stroke

Was it really worth it though, he always made it when he was hurt
But that was it, this time the condition was worse
Momma said there's a little chance of him stayin alive

Thats a lie cuz my grandpa is too strong to die
He loves us right? but he aint gonna put up a fight?
You can't be right, where there's the dark there's always the light

The next day we got in the hospital around 8 and 9
Only took a couple minutes longest wait of my life
Couldn't talk, couldn't move he used all of his might

And at that moment i realized my momma was right

I wonder if its wrong for me to question why'd you leave

You in a better place but im just prayin on my knees
That one day i can make it to Heaven so we can meet, once again
But for now, I'm simply wishin that you breathe

Papa breathe 1,2,3 Papa breathe you got grand kids please don't leave
Papa breathe do you know how much you mean to me
Papa breathe no please! please breathe don't leave! Papa breathe


Almost every single minute I was thinkin about you
Then I realize the world seemed empty without you

Couldn't believe it, how you gonna leave yo own grandson
No I can't get answers but still ask questions
Why did you do it? Could you have prevented it?

When I talked to you in the hospital were you listenin?
If you can choose for me the life or death would you live?
Did you even know that I loved you? Cuz I did

At the funeral, didn't cry didn't make a sound
But when know one knows, when i got home then I let it out
Then I started seenin things thats only seen from my mind

Made me thank God for all the family that's alive
You know grandma still cries and she blames herself for your death
But I explained to her it couldn't be helped

It was his time to go and I know we gone get through
God needed an angel, now I know why he picked you


I wonder if its wrong for me to question why'd you leave
You in a better place but im just prayin on my knees
That one day i can make it to Heaven so we can meet, once again

But for now, I'm simply wishin that you breathe
Papa breathe 1,2,3 Papa breathe you got grand kids please don't leave
Papa breathe do you know how much you mean to me

Papa breathe no please! please breathe don't leave! Papa breathe

When my grandpa passed away to me it felt like my worse day

But I still feel closer to him cuz he died on my birthday
He was the one to talk to when the times got tough
He was the one I can turn to when there was no one to trust

I was his daughter's son, he was my mother's dad
He was my grandpapa best father I ever had
So many good memories I can see it right now

Drivin in LA bumpin some James Brown
He would protect the family just like he was a God
But he'd do anything to give his kids some pokemon cards

We always use to wrestle but i would never fight fair
Then later lay on his stomach when I had a bad nightmare
Sorry for the things I said and things I did

I wish I take that back give you a hug instead
You never passed away cuz now your real life starts
So you need to get busy cuz you still in my heart


I wonder if its wrong for me to question why'd you leave
You in a better place but im just prayin on my knees

That one day i can make it to Heaven so we can meet, once again
But for now, I'm simply wishin that you breathe
Papa breathe 1,2,3 Papa breathe you got grand kids please don't leave

Papa breathe do you know how much you mean to me
Papa breathe no please! please breathe don't leave! Papa breathe
