To Ella

Lyrics: Ganiru Ucheagwu Music: Ganiru Ucheagwu Ironic how quiet she was in this life But yet the impact she had on us Is so much to write about She's small but look at the might of her Don't look at the size of her She's tough, she's sad but Look at the smile on her face Didn't know till she passed and now I wish I could give the girl an embrace An artist like me, I listened to her deliver some poetry I read some of it, I wish that I could have been more supportive The way that she was for me The love she had for my Kwechiri Really meant a lot to me But how I wish that I could have been- Well this is the way I grieve We all do it, the should-have-beens We lose somebody, it makes us question Hmm, maybe we- We didn't care enough, share enough Be there enough But none of it matters now cause they are gone
Ella's gone and I'm thinking about her mom She lost her lover, lost her daughter I'm crying for her, I'm praying to God Like Jesus please comfort her The pain di much She lost two parts of her in just three months Where will she find the strength to keep on living, Lord Jesus How did she feel knowing she won't survive but hopes she does What was she thinking in those final moments Hope she was Remembering all of the good times that she spent with us Her friends, her family and everyone she loved I hope she thought of all these people and she knew she's loved I know she wouldn't want us crying so I'll suck it up I hope she knows she'll live with us In our hearts and thoughts I hope she's found peace With her dad and God.
