Excuse me Mr. Coban, I just want a chance to speak   I don't mean to annoy you, bother you, or disturb you while you sleep   I admire you what you did, cause you wrote music from your heart   the media labeled the grunge, but I just labeled it art.   I feel we are in the same boat from what I see or where I stand   they try to label this rap/rock, which is two poets in a rock band.   If I could travel back in time and carry out one simple plan,   I would transform into your shotgun and I'd make that trigger jam.   It's not the fact you sold millions of units   you turn music into a movement   Seattle become the blueprint    so I try to carry the voice of a thousand teen spirits   your memory lives on through your songs, thoughts, and lyrics.      If I could live through you   for just one day of my life   of my dead love   If I could hold on to   just one memory   of my dead love   if I could paint a picture like a portrait that you left behind   for the world to see    of my dead love   If I could hold on to    For just one day of my life   dedicated to my dead love      Excuse Mr. Bruce Lee if I could have a moment of your time   I just want to share some thoughts, that been going on in my mind   see you're like a combination of honor, passion, and glory   I gotta tell you I've been inspired of your entire life story   you prove to the world the size of a man doesn't matter   it's the strength of the mind that makes one a "true master"   I read every chapter that surrounds you with mysterious death   I mean we all going to die someday at least you die without regrets   You left us with a collection    a beautiful introspection   I study your philosophy and use it towards my profession   So when I chase my hopes   I just read one of your quotes   There always be a part of my life like music notes    Farewell to the Dragon      If I could live through you   for just one day of my life   of my dead love   If I could hold on to   just one memory   of my dead love   if I could paint a picture like a portrait that you left behind   for the world to see    of my dead love   If I could hold on to    for just one day of my life   dedicated to my dead love      From the lyrics of John Lennon   the spirit of Bob Marley    the mind of Amen Dasa   the personality of Chris Farley   the voice of Janis Joplain   the comedy of Andy Coughman   the raising star of Regge Lewis    before he collasped on the court in Boston   the genius of Randy Rhodes    the way he play, the way he taught   the hands of a pioneer   the boogie down productions of Scott Larock   from the future of Big Al   to the love of Sid and Nancy   the national hero in Trudeau   the great pride in John Candy   the potential of River Bleaks   the expectations of Brandon Lee   the tragedies of Easy E, Richie Vallins and Buddy Holly   the rise and fall of Owen Hart   the beauty of Marilyn Monroe   the creative sounds of Jimmy Hendrix   the innovations of Joey Ramone   the power of Phil Lident, JFK and James Dean   Draze Impetchavitch and Pelly Lindberg would have died for there teams   the past of Frank Sinatra   to the present of Lane Stanley    the crowd of Elvis Pressley and the career of Patrick Swayze      If I could live through you   for just one day of my life   of my dead love   If I could hold on to   just one memory   of my dead love   if I could paint a picture like a portrait that you left behind   for the world to see    of my dead love   If I could hold on to    for just one day of my life   dedicated to my dead love
