Cameron Joseph Edwards - Mr. Black Lyrics

Joe?
Mr. Black?
Mr. Black, it's for you, it's your grandson
Give me the phone, get out my face before I say something
Hey Cam, what's going on? How's your mom and my son
He misses you a lot gramps, and it's only begun
I miss you too, I'm doing good I been making some runs
And I been lifting, not giving up cause you'd say suck it up
Yeah I would, your right about that, and not for nothing
You can call me anytime, not when you wanting something
Oh I don't need anything, I just wanted to see how you're doing?
I'm playing Spades with Jesus
For real?
They have that up there old man?
Oh yeah, they got a lot
I'm looking over everyone, I'm still down there with grandma
She misses you a lot too, to me it's hard to tell
I know she misses when you'd call her name and when you'd yell
I remember when you picked me up from school on your Harley
I thought I looked so cool
Wait Cam, you did honestly
I'm lacking confidence gramps, why do I doubt myself?
I don't know Cam, you need to stop it
I know i do but don't allow myself
Cam, we all are broken doors, no need to lock it, the right ones will see through all the blockage
I always try to hide my insecurities
But why when the people I love, love me for me?
You have to see the door that can't be closed as it is free
And every eye was made to see, so if God made it
Let it be
Mr. Black, it's time to go, you need some rest
Gramps I could let you go
No, just wait a second
I'm on the phone, please let me have this time, this is what I get
Now that I'm not down there, I hope they don't forget me
And my grandson hasn't, so can you please just leave me be
It's weird you actually sound calm, gramps
Did anger leave?
Did pride leave?
Did all your pain go away?
Yeah Cam, I closed my eyes, they opened to a beautiful place
I'm not judged, I was saved, I know you worried about it
Yeah I did grandpa, I'm so happy you found His palace
I prayed for you so much, just with all that you've seen
Well Cam, the wars and everything they don't compare to this dream
God is all knowing, God knows everything
I'm just thankful that I played a part in this whole thing
I served my country well, I did what I was supposed to
Now its your turn, even if you aren't a solider
Yes sir, I will be like you and raise my family right
I'll bring my kids up with respect and discipline for me and my wife
Teach em things, teach em lessons that they'll have to have
And remember that my actions, they can start to grab
That's right, hey Cam I think I have to go, God is calling for me
Okay gramps, I'll call you later, say hi for me
It was good talking to you, bubba
You're my bubba right?
Yeah gramps, i'm your bubba
Okay Cam, bye
