Titled “My Best Friend,” the track is featuring with Ludacris and the hip hop group, The Roots, and it is a courageous attempt to celebrate Paul’s life.
“My heart is hurting so bad no one can make me believe this is real. Father God I pray that you send clarity over this cause I just don’t understand My heart hurts it’s broken no one can convince me that this is real…. Prayer warriors please pray real hard for his only child, his daughter and family…#HeartOfAnAngel13YrsFamilyForeverWeJustCelebreatedYour40thBirthday….. My God… My God… I can’t believe I’m writing this,” shared Tyrese on Facebook, deeply affected by Paul’s death, whom he first met 10 years ago on the sets of 2 Fast 2 Furious .
Besides Paul Walker co-workers, other celebrities have used the medium of music to cope with this unexpected loss. Rapper RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan also shared a new song, “Destiny Bends,” dedicated to the recently deceased actor.
“This song, entitled ‘Destiny Bends’ was written last night after hearing the tragic news of the loss of a good man named Paul Walker. I met Paul on the set of the film Brick Mansion, where we talked, laughed, and exchanged ideas of life and fatherhood,” revealed RZA.
“I only knew him personally for less than a year, but we knew each other through our work and art. We saw in each other a kindred spirit of men coming from unlikely circumstances, and rising to be the light and beacon of our family and loved ones,” added the rapper. (… ) “I dedicated my time to compose this song with my two sons and new friend Will Wells, who was kind enough to sing and perform it for me. We dedicate it to Paul Walker. A good man. We had plans to continue working with each other in the future. It seemed destined, but ‘destiny bends’.”
