1958-2009
I remember the first time I saw you moonwalk
I believed I could do anything
You made the world dance
You made music come to life
This the type of song that makes the angels cry
I look up in the sky and I wonder why ?
Why you had to go , go
I know it's better on the other side
(You're the greatest)
You were chosen from the start
Never gonna let you go
(We will never forget you)
Who's Michael Jackson,
You're Michael Jackson,
I'm Michael Jackson,
We're all Michael Jackson,
I guess what I'm askin' , is everybody bow their head for a legend,
Don't breathe for a second,
Let the air out,
Grab the hand of somebody you care about,
So you can hear my message , my confession.
Somebody tell Usher,
I've seen the moonwalk,
I guess the young "Thriller" touched him,
Like he touched me,
Like he touched you,
So carrying on his legacy is something I must to do,
And I trust you lighting candles,
Concrete visuals,
Me and my brothers listening to the Jackson 5 in our living room,
First thing I did when I heard was to call Puff,
'Cause him and Mike stopped the beef between us,
Who was us , me and Fifty, that beef is dead,
And the young Michael Jackson is going to take us to the ledge,
This the type of song that makes the angels cry
I look up in the sky and I wonder why ?
Why you had to go , go
I know it's better on the other side
You were chosen from the start
Never gonna let you go
As I'm pourin' this liquor, candles start to flicker
When I list my air ones,
MJ was my nigger,
Not the one that play ball, the one who's the Hollywood star,
And since I'm a Hollywood star I'm gonna tell you my story,
Never had a family that close, never see Barry Gordy walking through Interscope,
Just like me they always had Mike in a scope,
No matter what you say,
I'm gonna love him and he's still dope,
Let me take you back in the 85 when I was in zone, dancing for my momma Thriller jacket with all the zippers on,
Now I'm doing 90 'bout to crash in this Aston,
Listening to Outcast, I'm sorry Mrs Jackson,
Anything I can ever do to better you, your son was OUR king , so we won't Corretta you,
I'm writing this letter to all Jackson kids, we're all Jackson kids, time to let us through.
This the type of song that makes the angels cry
I look up in the sky and I wonder why ?
Why you had to go , go
I know it's better on the other side
You were chosen from the start
Never gonna let you go
People say what they wanna say about you,
We're gonna remember the miracles that you showed us,
Do your music, do your dance, do your philanthropy,
You were the one that made us realise that we are the world,
You were the one that showed us that we can move on, gave us the beat,
Gave us the rhythm, gave us the soul, through us your legacy was on,
We can't stop now, we won't stop now, Mike Jackson
This the type of song that makes the angels cry
I look up in the sky and I wonder why ?
Why you had to go , go
I know it's better on the other side
You were chosen from the start
Never gonna let you go
This the kind of song that makes the angels cry,
I look up in the sky and I wonder why?
Why do we live and then die,
This the kind of song that makes the angels cry,
I look up in the sky and I wonder why?
Why do we live and then die.
