[Verse 1]
The future me I haven’t met
There’s some things you might regret
Like giving up on love too fast
Chasing shadows from your past
Future me I haven’t met
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s gonna be some pain
It’s …
Do you have the time
To listen to me why
About nothing and everything, all at once
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools
[?] no doubt about it
[Chrous]
Sometimes I give myself the queens
Sometimes my …
[Chorus]
Fuck my life, can’t say that girl
Don’t tell me you can save that shit
All she want is payback for the way I always play that shit
You ain’t getting nothing, now …
[Intro]
Oh, you deal with
[Verse 1]
From the moment you was dancing in the party, pushing all on me
Giving everything, you’re giving everything tonight
And if you thought you could get away from …
[Chorus]
I done seen you glow like that I must say that I’m proud
Thinkin bout the times when you would go into my house, hey
Had to let you go like that …
Preacher said he died too young
Over there totin’ that gun1
For Uncle Sam2 and our freedom3
Mom and Daddy dressed in black4
They folded up that flag
Handed it to dad5
Started prayin’
Yeah he went out 21 guns blazin’6
An’ that’s One Hell of an Amen7
That’s the only way to go8
Fightin’ the good fight9
Til the Good Lord calls you home10
And so be well my friend
Til’ I see you again11
This is our last goodbye
But it’s a Hell of an Amen12
Doctor said he ain’t got long13
He just smiled said bring it on14
If you think I’m scared
You got it all wrong15
A little cancer can’t break me
My heart’s right and I believe16
We all hit our knees
Started prayin’17
Naw he never gave up
Said the Good Lord’s waitin’18
An’ that’s One Hell of an Amen
That’s the only way to go
Fightin’ the good fight
Til the Good Lord calls you home
So be well my friend
Til’ I see you again
Yeah this is our last goodbye
But it’s a Hell of an Amen
So be well my friend
Til’ I see you again
This is our last goodbye
But it’s a Hell of an Amen19

This song is explaining how that when you believe you are saying good-bye to someone, you really arent because you will see them again someday in heaven. Also, that you must live your life to the fullest and keep fighting for what you believe in until the very end.
