  • As the reality of the times take hold
    We come to terms with the sadness we bear
    Missing the times we never get to share
    Whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa
    Just a few words because we care
    Still I got all the memories
    Who-who-who-whoa, whoa-whoa

    Say, when me look up inna mi life it's plain to see
    That it's never gonna be the same
    Take another step on towards my destiny
    But the memories still remain
    Deep inna mi brain, inna mi soul, I hold the key
    Said it's never gonna be the same
    Throughout life and beyond all eternity
    Yo, we keep burnin' up the flame

    Wish I could rewind all the hands of time
    And bring back Daddigon, a great bredrin of mine, I
    Sit and remember all the things that we spoke of
    All of the serious reasonings, all di tings we make jokes of
    Still cannot believe them took your life away
    But those who pull the trigger cannot take away
    The covenant the righteous have with Jah Jah
    So I know I'll see you again, my brother
    Well me think

    Say, when me look up inna mi life it's plain to see
    That it's never gonna be the same
    Take another step on towards my destiny
    But the memories still remain
    Deep inna mi brain, inna mi soul, I hold the key
    Said it's never gonna be the same
    Throughout life and beyond all eternity
    Yo, we keep burnin' up the flame

    Fi all the friends and families that have past on
    Leaving impressions and memories that will last on
    Giving thanks fi all the time that we know them
    Reminisce them legacy, that is what we owe them
    Because they helped to make us who we are
    So let us never forget and talk it near and far
    Bless up Grandpa Lee and Aunt Chris-I
    Can't forget you if I try
    So when me go suh

    When me look up inna mi life it's plain to see
    That it's never gonna be the same
    Take another step on towards my destiny
    But the memories still remain
    Deep inna mi brain, inna mi soul, I hold the key
    Said it's never gonna be the same
    Throughout life and beyond all eternity
    Yo, we keep burnin' up the flame

    Father Bogle (keep burnin' up all the flame, the flame)
    Simpleton (never gonna ever gonna be the same, the same)
    Peter Cargill (keep burnin' up all the flame, burnin' the flame)
    Shorty Malcolm (got memories inna mi brain, mi brain)
    Nicole Wynter (keep burnin' up all the flame, the flame)
    All friends and families (never gonna forget mi friend, mi friend)
    We'll never forget you all (keep burnin' up all the flame, the flame)
    ('Til Jah Jah link we again)

    When me look up inna mi life it's plain to see
    That it's never gonna be the same
    Take another step on towards my destiny
    But the memories still remain
    Deep inna mi brain, inna mi soul, I hold the key
    Said it's never gonna be the same
    Throughout life and beyond all eternity
    Yo, we keep burnin' up the flame

    For all the friends that have passed on before
    We pray that you rest in peace
    And Jah keep you safe until we meet again Writer/s: Donovan Bennett, Nigel Staff, Sean Paul Henriques
