This is the song my dear friend Ugonna recorded at my house while we spent a wonderful weekend together right up until just hours before he died. This visit was the most open, earnest, and fun time we ever spent together, and I know he felt super accomplished when we finished this. It's surreal to me that he was no longer with us just hours later as he was so alive and enthusiastic to be recording this song. I want to share this song to remind people that he was creating and inspiring right up to his final moments.
He said that he did not have a title for the song so I'm not going to give it one. I'll always love you man.
UPDATE: Thank you all so much for your kind words, and I'm so happy that Ugonna has had the opportunity to move you in one of the many ways he's impacted the people who knew him well. Many generous people have asked about downloading his songs and offered to donate with the proceeds going to his family or to a cause he cared about. This is still being worked out, but all those details are being nailed down and all updates we have will be made on this facebook page we've created for him. If you'd like to follow these updates, then please "like" this page:

UPDATE #2: You can now DOWNLOAD Ugonna's EP created in his memory to DONATE to his family. The EP includes this and four other beautiful songs: http://ugonna.bandcamp.com/

Sometimes it's best to give up when you're falling downI hate to sound insensitive 'cause you know that I care

She opens up the letter, and reads it to herself
When there's no one around, just a picture on the shelf
She reaches for her phone and I get a call
I look for an escape, but there's nowhere at allI hate to let it ring, cuz she knows I'm around
I lift it to my ear, my heart hits the ground
And then she says the words that I've been waiting for for so long
And I wonder how I could have been so wrong when I'm[ G Gm | Dmaj7 ]

@Timothy Lamore: Don't worry about him. People can have their opinions and if I don't agree with them it doesn't matter. Ugonna died doing what he loved and living a life of happiness and joy. Don't let a troll take away your own happiness and joy. Smile, wish him a pleasant day, then press play one more time.
