You gon have to do this live someday, Eric. This record is so pretty. You laid it all out on the line here. You sound so dope, as always.

We did a routine to this in college. An all male dance team. I almost had to live this song! THANK YOU for your honesty and transparency in this song!

I remember my mom had this CD 💿and I loved the album but o boy when I heard this song I couldn't stop crying. At the time I didn't know I would be able to relate one day. Unfortunately in 2017 my daughter lost her Father. At the time she was 9, now she's 14 and I try to love on her as much and hug her , but I can't fill that void she had with him. I feel so sad because he never will see her graduate 🎓or get married. She has a step-dad and he's wonderful but he can never be forgotten ♥.

I just remembered this song and had to come here to listen to it.

I love this song!! Y’all sleeping on this man right here!

The line "her mommy's gone away..." is so touching and his delivery is so gentle, fragile yet strong in a tender way always stuck with me and made me feel the depth of this song.. It's the reason i would smile when watching videos of he and India singing together later in life.. Powerful song..

I used to cry to this song at 13

[@thewordsmith5440]

I just learned that he dedicated this song to the mom of his daughter who passed away in a car accident at 25. I think they weren't together but it really left him hurt and full of regret.
