Tell me that it’s over, that you’re gonna come home
I need you right now, I’m all alone
Miss you every day, I smudge and I pray
Looking to find a way to go back to that day
Prevent them from taking your life away
I hang a red dress and I light up a candle
This unjust system put my life into shambles

Remember when I used to hold your hand in the park?
We’d walk around late, like way after dark
You’d make my heart melt every time that you’d smile
Everything you did, yeah you did it in style
Talked about our plans, our future and gradually
Gonna finish school and then start a family
Didn’t have a chance, put a that ring on that finger
Bow down on my knee, while you happily whimper
Instead our ceremony is a funeral service…
Such a beautiful soul you didn’t deserve this
Seeking justice now is my only purpose
I can’t explain the pain I felt when you crossed over
Nightmare please stop, tell me it’s over

Tell me that it’s over, that you’re gonna come home
I need you right now, I’m all alone
Miss you every day, I smudge and I pray
Looking to find a way to go back to that day
Prevent them from taking your life away
I hang a red dress and I light up a candle
This unjust system put my life into shambles
Tell me that it’s over, you’re gonna come home

Almost every day, I see your face
It’s On the news, they be saying, who to blame
It’s so cold like the food on your dinner plate
Because you never came back from your dinner date
Nah, it’s so wrong what they do to woman
We need to see our girls shine, with some supervision
Cuz underneath the perfect picture, is a name and number
Like who to call, I hope we get to see each other
I seen your mother and she wanted you to call her back
I hear’em praying everyday like its gods plan
I’m optimistic, I picture you in the kitchen
Washing dishes and smiling, we laughing at something silly
Actually, in my dreams, I see you and all your pretty
I’m praying I see you shining, whenever I see the city

Tell me that it’s over, that you’re gonna come home
I need you right now, I’m all alone
Miss you every day, I smudge and I pray
Looking to find a way to go back to that day
Prevent them from taking your life away
I hang a red dress and I light up a candle
This unjust system put my life into shambles
Tell me that it’s over, you’re gonna come home

Tell me that it’s over, that you’re gonna come home
I need you right now, I’m all alone
Miss you every day, I smudge and I pray
Looking to find a way to go back to that day
Prevent them from taking your life away
I hang a red dress and I light up a candle
This unjust system put my life into shambles
Tell me that it’s over, you’re gonna come home
