(Mariah Carey and Akon)

This is for my people's

Who just lost somebody

Your best friend, your baby

Your man, or your lady

Put your hands way up high

(Put 'em way up high)

We will never say bye

Never, no, no

(Never say goodbye)

Momma's, daddies

Sisters, brothers

Friends and cousins

(Yeah)

This is for my people's

Who lost they grandmothers

(Yeah)

Lift ya hands to the sky

(Lift 'em way up high)

'Cause we will never say bye

(Never say goodbye)

(Akon)

I know, I know you're gone

I know I'll see you again

One thing that I can promise

That we gon' meet up again

Hopefully up in heaven

Prayin' that I'm forgiven

For everything that I've done

And everything

I forgot to mention

If feel so bad

To be without my homie

And every since

You've been absent

I've been so lonely

Why does our life cycle

Round like a trophy

Even though know somebody

Took the time to warn me

That you just keep me

Till the end it's just crazy

And everyday I'm wishin' you

Could come save me

And I know a man

Ain't supposed to cry

It's taken all the strength

In my soul to say goodbye

(Mariah Carey/Chorus)

Bye, bye (22x)

(Mariah Carey)

And you never got the chance

To see how good I've done

And you never got to see me

Back at number one

I wish that you were here

To celebrate together

I wish that we could spend

The holidays together

I remember when you used

To tuck me in at night

With the teddy bear

You gave to me

That I held so tight

I thought you

Were so strong

That you can make it

Through whatever

It's so hard

To accept the fact

You're gone forever

I never knew

I could hurt like this

And everyday

Life goes on like

I wish I could talk to you

For awhile

I wish I could find a way

Try not to cry

As time goes by

And soon as you reach

A better place

Still

I'll give the whole world

To see your face

And I'm right here

Next to you

It feels

Like you gone too soon

The hardest thing to do

Is say bye, bye

(Mariah Carey/Chorus)

Bye, bye (22x)

(Lil' Wayne)

How come

They call it goodbye?

How come the good die?

See I just get high

And think of the good times

That I had with my pops

He was a good guy

How come the good die?

As I protect my mother

'Cause I'm her oldest son

And there

Are different worlds

And we in the coldest one

Which one did granny go to?

And why do death come?

As my baby ask

Where do babies come from

I tell her where

I tell her why

And I tell her I love her

Until I tell her bye

And whenever

I shall ever die

I hope you celebrate it

I hope you never hated

And they say heaven's gated

But I think I know the code

And let's get your life right

By the end of the road

That's why I drive alone

Down memory lane

So if I crash

I hope ya'll

Remember Wayne

(Mariah Carey/Chorus)

I never knew

I could hurt like this

And everyday

Life goes on like

I wish I could talk to you

For awhile

I wish I could find a way

Try not to cry

As time goes by

And soon as you reach

A better place

Still

I'll give the whole world

To see your face

And I'm right here

Next to you

It feels

Like you gone too soon

The hardest thing to do

Is say bye, bye

Bye, bye (22x)

It's hard to say

Bye, bye, bye, bye

So come on

Somebody say it with me

Wave ya hands up high

'Cause this is for my people's

Who just lost somebody

See this is for everybody

Just lift ya hands to the sky

'Cause we will never say bye, bye
