Lyrics:

Oooohhh oooooh ohhhh
Uuuhh ohhh
It's alright now
Oooooh ooooh ooohhh
Listen here

Good man, good woman
Hooked up and they had a couple of children
Four kids, look what the lord did
Smilin' on my parents with a blessing

And even though their days wouldn’t be long
Momma looked around and daddy's gone
But we weren’t alone
Until the lord called her home

She’s in a place with my little sister
From time to time man I really miss her
And as for my dad, from what I understand
He was a strong man
And I know they’re back together

Poppa went first, and momma went last
But I ain’t mad, cause I know that
They’re back together again, up in heaven
When the sun shines down
There’s a smile on my face
There ain’t no doubt when I think about
Where they went
And they’re back together, together again

I wish I could tell ‘em
All of the things I never got to tell him
But I’m sure he knows
(??) told him so
And even when I start stressin’
I think of what a good time they’re havin’

And the bottom line is
Man I know this

She’s gone upstairs with my little sister
And I can clearly see the picture
Julie and my dad
How can I be mad
When the lord has brought them together

See poppa went first, and momma went last
And I ain’t mad, cause I know that
They’re back together again, up in heaven
As the sun shines down
There’s a smile on my face
There’s no doubt, there’s no doubt when I think about
Where they went
Cause they’re back together again

Even though that my parents just wasn’t in the plans
See, when I was a young man I didn’t understand
Now I’m all grown up, and I’m missing your touch
The portrait in the frame, it’s just not enough
All the dreams I’ve been chasin’ after everyday
The memories just won’t seem to fade away
There’s only one thing, I’ll tell you something
I know that they’re dancing up in heaven through the lord’s grace

Cause poppa went first, and momma went last
And I said I ain’t mad cause I know where they went
Up in heaven, upon high
When the sun shines down, and the rain starts to pour
I know…sister I know
You’re dancing in the sky
Said I wrote this song about it, and I’m real real proud about it
I know you’re dancing in the sky
Yeah…

Hey Ja,
I love all of your music. I've been a huge fan of yours every since you got out of prison and made your first album. We are from the same place Jersey City New Jersey. I wish I could meet you in person or get a pass to one of your concerts, but I'm so sick all of the time it's hard to get out a lot of the times. I love the songs you wrote for your family that passed away it makes me think of the feeling that will come to me when my parents are gone, I feel how you feel in your songs. I know they are very proud of you and what you have accomplished in life since getting released. Let nothing and no one take you back to there. I also love the song "NEVER" my husband dedicated that song to me and it took him a long time to come to the conclusion that I was the one he wanted to be with forever but once he made that commitment it has been like heaven every since. Good luck in your future and keep doing what your doing; I love it.
Juicey (Tia)

Hi Jah, I realy believe that some where in your mind you new that a song was going to be maid for one of your love one's but at that time you just could't call it, but once the icing hit the cake..THAT WAS IT, you allowed reality to manafest in your life it was't easy Jah it took some time, this was not an easy song Jah, just to know that each lyic holds a memorie that can never be replaced. that's why your climax in this song brings you so much joy Jah, you rock it when you say " I know they dancing up in heavan through the Lord's grace... Jah you said that you was prould about this song.. Nigga you better be! cause they prould of you.& I am alo Jaheim.Time make's us who we are today Jah, everything is about timming..I love you Jah... 4 life

@Jahsmeal good question. I'm sure it happened more than once. Pain brings good music.

I'm wondering how did JA handle putting this song together cause it's very intense (We all get a lil emotional when speaking/reminiscing about a lost loved one)

JAH'S MEAL's picture

Yes it is a healing to the soul for anyone who have lost a loved one.....
The memories will always remain in our mind

Now I’m all grown up, and I’m missing your touch,
The portrait in the frame, it’s just not enough.

THIS SONG REALLY TOUCHED ME (I LOST MY FATHER IN 1998). IT REALLY HIT HOME AND I'M QUITE SURE THERE R SO MANY OTHERS WHO WERE TOUCHED BY THIS SONG.

JAHEIM WROTE THIS FOR HIMSELF, BUT IT MINISTER TO ALL OF US WHO HAVE PARENTS THAT ARE NO LONGER HERE. FOR EVERY ONE WHO EVER WONDERED ABOUT THEIR PARENTS FOR YEARS AND YEARS AT A TIME. THIS IS A HEALING FOR YOUR SOUL.

THANKS

I know it is hard to accept losing a loved one. My husband lost both of his parents and I lost both of my grand mothers and one of my sons and it's still hard to deal with sometimes but listening to the songs that he wrote to those family members lets me know that they are really there watching over me and my husband., thanks for being an inspiration for me., I love you Jah.
