Mariah Carey — Bye Bye Konvict Remix

[Intro: Mariah Carey & (Akon)] This is for my people who just lost somebody Your best friend, your baby, your man or your lady Put your hand way up high (Put 'em way up high) We will never say bye, no, no, no (Never say goodbye) Mama's, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins (Yeah) This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers (Yeah) Lift your head to the sky (Lift 'em way up high) 'Cause we will never say bye (Never say goodbye) [Verse 1: Akon] I know, I know you’re gone, I know I'll see you again One thing that I can promise, we gon' meet up again Hopefully up in Heaven, prayin' that I'm forgiven For everything that I've done, and that I forgot to mention I feel so bad to be without my homie And ever since you've been absent, I've been so lonely Why does life cycle around like a trophy? Even though I know somebody took the time to warn me That you can't be with me and it's just crazy And every day I'm wishing that you could come save me And I know a man ain't supposed to cry It’s taken all the strength in my soul to say goodbye [Chorus: Mariah Carey & (Akon)] Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye (Say goodbye) Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye bye (Say goodbye) [Verse 2: Mariah Carey] And you never got a chance to see how good I've done And you never got to see me back at number one I wish that you were here to celebrate together I wish that we could spend the holidays together I remember when you used to tuck me in at night With the teddy bear you gave to me that I held so tight I thought you were so strong, you'd make it through whatever It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever [Chorus: Mariah Carey] I never knew I could hurt like this And every day life rolls on I wish I could talk to you for awhile Miss you, but I try not to cry As time goes by (As time goes by) And it's true that you've reached a better place Still, I'd give the world to see your face And be right here next to you But it's like you're gone too soon Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye [Post-Chorus: Mariah Carey] Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye bye [Verse 3: Lil Wayne] Yeah, I feel you, sweetheart, let me talk to 'em Yeah, how come they call it goodbye? How come the good die? See, I just get high and think of the good times That I had with my pops, he was a good guy How come the good die?? As I protect my mother 'Cause I'm her oldest son, and there are different worlds And we in the coldest one, which one did granny go to? And why do death come? As my baby ask, "where do babies come from?" I tell her, "where?", I tell her "why?" And I tell her I love her until I tell her bye And whenever I shall ever die, I hope you celebrate it I hope you never hate it, and they say Heaven's gated But I think I know the code, and let's get your life right By the end of the road, that’s why I drive alone down memory lane So if I crash, I hope you all remember Wayne, goodbye [Chorus: Mariah Carey] Never knew I could hurt like this (I never knew it) And everyday life rolls on (Every day of life, I wish) I wish I could talk to you for awhile (I wish) Miss you, but I try not to cry (I wish) As time goes by (I'm wishin' as time goes by) And it's true that you've reached a better place Still, I'd give the world to see your face And be right here next to you (And be right here next to you) But it's like you're gone too soon Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye [Post-Chorus: Mariah Carey] Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye Bye bye [Outro: Mariah Carey] Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye (It's hard to say bye bye, bye bye, bye bye) Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye (So come on, somebody sing it with me) Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye (Wave your hands up high) Bye bye (Hey) Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye (So this is for my peoples who just lost somebody) Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye (So this is for everybody) Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye (Just keep your hands to the sky) Bye bye, bye bye ('Cause we will never say bye bye)
