**[Intro]**

Yeah

I been lookin' at the sky lately

Thinkin' 'bout the ones I can't call no more

Hope you hear me...

 

**[Verse 1]**

I been fightin' through the pain, I don't show it on my face

Lost some people that I love, now I'm prayin' every day

Wish Heaven had a phone, I'd be callin' right away

Tell you everything that's changed since the day you went away

 

I still ride through the city with your memory beside me

Smile around the people, but that hurt still live inside me

Everybody say I'm strong, they don't know what it cost me

Had to learn to keep it movin' when the grief almost lost me

 

Late nights, I be starin' at the ceiling

Ask God if you can hear me when I'm speakin' how I'm feelin'

I've been carryin' these scars, but I'm focused on the healin'

Every loss made me colder, still my heart ain't stop believin'

 

We had plans, we had dreams, we were supposed to make it out

Now I'm chasin' everything that we used to talk about

When they tell me I can't do it, I can hear you tell me louder

"Keep your head up, keep on movin'," so I'm standin' even prouder

 

**[Chorus]**

If you're up in Heaven, save a place for me

I know you're somewhere finally livin' peacefully

When the nights get cold, you're the light I see

Gone from my arms, but you ain't gone from me

 

If you're up in Heaven, tell me you're alright

Send a little sign when I'm drivin' late at night

I keep your name alive every time I touch the mic

'Til I see you again on the other side

 

**[Verse 2]**

I remember all the laughter, I remember all the pain

Now the pictures feel different every time I see your face

Time supposed to heal wounds, but some wounds leave a stain

So I learned to walk with heartbreak instead of runnin' from the rain

 

I done lost trust, lost sleep, lost people I believed in

Had some days I felt empty, couldn't find myself a reason

But I know you wouldn't want me sittin' down and barely breathin'

So I turned the hurt to music, gave the broken heart a meaning

 

Mama told me keep the faith when the road get dark

God can build a whole future from a shattered heart

So I'm workin' every night, puttin' truth in every bar

Tryna make you proud wherever in the sky you are

 

And if success ever comes, I'ma carry your name

Every stage, every crowd, you a part of the flame

I might never understand why the good ones get taken

But I'm holdin' onto love even when my faith shaken

 

**[Bridge]**

Sometimes I swear I feel you near

Like you tellin' me, "Don't disappear"

I wipe my eyes, put the car in gear

Keep pushin' through another year

 

One day, I know I'll understand

Why God had another plan

Until then, I'm doin' all I can

Keep your memory in my hands

 

**[Final Chorus]**

If you're up in Heaven, save a place for me

I know you're somewhere finally livin' peacefully

When the nights get cold, you're the light I see

Gone from my arms, but you ain't gone from me

 

If you're up in Heaven, tell me you're alright

Send a little sign when I'm drivin' late at night

I keep your name alive every time I touch the mic

'Til I see you again on the other side

 

**[Outro]**

Up in Heaven...

I hope you're lookin' down

I'm still chasin' what we dreamed about

And when my time comes around

I'll see you again.
