[male vocals] Ohhhhhh
yeahhhhh…
Lord,
have
mercy
on
the
world…
This
one
is
for
everybody
Who
has
ever
lost
somebody
they
love.
To
the
mothers
crying…
To
the
fathers
missing
their
children…
To
the
children
who
miss
their
parents…
To
every
family
with
an
empty
chair…
Lord
Digibous
is
singing
for
you.
Jah
know…
life
goes
on…
But
the
memories
never
die.
[Verse 1 — Slow, Emotional Singing] Somebody
left
us
yesterday,
And
the
pain
is
still
here
today.
Mama's
tears
falling
like
rain,
Papa's
heart
is
hiding
the
pain.
Empty
room,
empty
chair,
Still
we
feel
their
love
everywhere.
We
call
their
names,
but
no
reply,
Sometimes
we
wonder
why
people
die.
Oh,
life
is
a
journey,
nobody
knows,
When
the
wind
will
come
and
the
flower
will
close.
We
are
just
visitors
passing
through,
One
day
the
world
will
remember
us
too.
[Chorus — Deep, Easy-to-Sing Reggae Hook] Gone,
gone,
but
never
forgotten,
Their
love
lives
on
in
our
hearts
forever.
Gone,
gone,
beyond
the
horizon,
May
their
souls
find
peace
wherever.
Oh,
Mama,
don't
cry
forever,
Oh,
Papa,
we
must
stand
together.
Though
we
may
never
see
them
again,
Their
love
will
live
through
sunshine
and
rain.
Jah,
Jah,
give
the
broken
hearts
peace,
Let
the
tears
fall,
let
the
suffering
cease.
Gone
from
our
eyes,
but
remembered
with
love,
May
they
rest
in
peace
above.
[Verse 2 — Ghanaian Roots Reggae Flow] From
Accra
to
Kumasi
town,
People
are
crying
when
the
sun
goes
down.
From
Bolgatanga
to
the
Western
side,
Families
are
mourning,
tears
they
cannot
hide.
Some
lost
a
brother,
some
lost
a
friend,
Some
lost
a
mother
they
loved
till
the
end.
Some
lost
a
father,
their
guiding
light,
Now
they
remember
them
every
night.
Ei,
life
is
short,
my
people,
be
kind,
Leave
a
little
love
for
the
ones
behind.
Don't
wait
for
death
before
you
show
care,
Give
people
your
love
while
they
are
still
here.
Because
money
cannot
bring
them
home,
And
no
amount
of
gold
can
heal
every
soul.
But
kindness
and
memories
help
us
survive,
Through
the
love
we
shared,
they
remain
alive.
[Chorus — Full Band Enters] Gone,
gone,
but
never
forgotten,
Their
love
lives
on
in
our
hearts
forever.
Gone,
gone,
beyond
the
horizon,
May
their
souls
find
peace
wherever.
Oh,
Mama,
don't
cry
forever,
Oh,
Papa,
we
must
stand
together.
Though
we
may
never
see
them
again,
Their
love
will
live
through
sunshine
and
rain.
Jah,
Jah,
give
the
broken
hearts
peace,
Let
the
tears
fall,
let
the
suffering
cease.
Gone
from
our
eyes,
but
remembered
with
love,
May
they
rest
in
peace
above.
[Verse 3 — Conscious Rasta Message] We
don't
know
the
mystery
of
life,
We
don't
know
the
end
of
our
journey.
So
let
us
stop
the
hatred
and
strife,
And
give
one
another
love
and
mercy.
To
every
family
standing
at
the
grave,
To
every
lonely
heart
trying
to
be
brave,
You
are
not
alone
in
the
tears
you
cry,
Love
leaves
memories
that
never
die.
Whether
rich
or
poor,
we
all
share
this
earth,
Every
human
being
has
a
value
and
worth.
So
before
you
judge,
before
you
fight,
Remember
we
all
seek
love
and
light.
Let
peace
be
the
message
we
leave
behind,
Let
compassion
be
the
wealth
we
find.
And
when
our
time
comes
to
say
goodbye,
May
love
be
the
truth
that
never
dies.
[Bridge — Soft Piano, Nyabinghi Drums] Sleep
in
peace,
my
brother…
Sleep
in
peace,
my
sister…
Your
story
will
not
be
forgotten.
Rest
in
peace,
dear
mother…
Rest
in
peace,
dear
father…
Your
love
is
still
a
light
in
the
darkness.
To
every
soul
we
have
lost,
We
remember
you
with
love.
May
the
grieving
find
comfort,
And
may
peace
surround
every
family.
Ohhh,
Jah,
comfort
the
world…
Ohhh,
Jah,
heal
our
hearts…
[Verse 4 — Spoken-Sung, Deep and Reflective] Listen,
my
people…
Don't
wait
until
somebody
is
gone
Before
you
tell
them
you
love
them.
Don't
wait
until
the
final
goodbye
Before
you
make
peace
with
your
family.
Life
is
precious.
Time
is
passing.
And
love
is
the
greatest
gift
We
can
give
one
another.
To
all
the
departed
souls,
You
will
always
have
a
place
In
the
hearts
of
those
who
loved
you.
Lord
Digibous
remembers
you.
BouzNation
Records
remembers
you.
This
song
is
for
you.
[Final Chorus — Powerful, Emotional Roots Reggae] Gone,
gone,
but
never
forgotten,
Their
love
lives
on
in
our
hearts
forever.
Gone,
gone,
beyond
the
horizon,
May
their
souls
find
peace
wherever.
Oh,
Mama,
may
your
heart
find
healing,
Oh,
Papa,
may
your
soul
find
meaning.
To
every
family
facing
the
pain,
May
you
find
strength
to
smile
again.
Gone
from
our
eyes,
never
from
our
hearts,
Even
when
life
keeps
keeping
us
apart.
We
honour
your
lives,
we
remember
your
names,
Love
is
the
fire
that
forever
remains.
[Outro — Fading Guitar, Soft Drums] Ohhhhh,
Jah
Rastafari…
Rest
in
peace,
all
departed
souls.
Comfort
every
grieving
family.
Give
strength
to
the
living.
Let
love
overcome
the
pain.
Gone
but
never
forgotten…
Loved
but
never
lost
from
our
memories…
Until
we
meet
again…
Lord
Digibous…
BouzNation
Records…
One
love…
One
heart…
One
human
family.
Jah
bless.
every
soul
