Man I wish you were here so you could listen to the song
But you was too young when you got put into the ground
God tell me why you had to take his young life
He was still fighting, had a future that was bright
He was gone too young (Too young)
Young (Young)
Man he was gone too young
Man I wish you were here so I could teach you how to dive
Look at the stars and see how bright they all can shine
Now look at all the buildings lighting up like Christmas time
Mama said to be home before the streetlights come online
Man I wish you were here so I could drop you off to school
Then pick you up and then ask you if you was cool
You said you saw this girl and your heart started warming up
Little brother, let's love, I think you found your first crush
But you were gone too young (Too young)
Young (Young)
Man you were gone too young
Man I wish you were here so you could listen to the song
But you was too young when you got put into the ground
God tell me why you had to take his young life
He was still fighting, had a future that was bright
He was gone too young (Too young)
Young (Young)
Man he was gone too young
Man I wish you were here so I could see how much you've grown
Taller than me, listen, you can still get beat down
Looking back on the days when we were all stuck on the ground now
Look at us now, little brother, we at the town
Man I wish you were here so I could see you off to college
Man I knew you had the knowledge, look at all that you accomplished
Mama crying in the corner, number one, the top supporter
Everybody rooting you on, my baby brother, you were golden
But you were gone too young (Too Young)
Young (Young)
Man you were gone too young
Man I wish you were here so you could listen to the song
But you was too young when you got put into the ground
God tell me why you had to take his young life
He was still fighting, had a future that was bright
He was gone too young (Too young)
Young (Young)
Man he was gone too young
Man he was gone too young (Too Young)
Young (Young)
Man he was gone too young
