| [00:05.53] |
Yo, what up, my nigga? |
| [00:32.55] |
You know, I was in the hood |
| [00:36.61] |
I just thought I'd stop by and holler at you for a minute |
| [00:39.85] |
Pour out a little liquor or somethin' |
| [00:42.22] |
Nigga, we done been through a lot of shit together |
| [00:43.35] |
From runnin' these streets to bein' down for whatever |
| [00:45.85] |
And now that you're gone I got a whole lot of shit to tell ya |
| [00:50.02] |
Things I should've said way back when we was younger |
| [00:52.46] |
Remember when we used to roll hand in hand? |
| [00:55.14] |
And now I'm trippin' on how I really miss you, man |
| [00:58.45] |
And remember when you and me would say |
| [00:59.69] |
We'd get up out this hood and everything would be okay |
| [01:03.44] |
It's all good now |
| [01:05.81] |
My nigga, we out the hood now |
| [01:07.19] |
We had the same ideas, but not the same careers |
| [01:10.56] |
We shared the same old laugh, but not the same tears |
| [01:15.36] |
You were my homie, my stoney, my Rollie |
| [01:18.04] |
My nigga and never placed no bitch befo' me |
| [01:21.10] |
Man, I swear to God I love for that shit |
| [01:24.03] |
Why'd you have to get hit? Where was I? What time was it? |
| [01:27.40] |
You were supposed to get older with me |
| [01:28.65] |
On stage, hands on shoulders with me |
| [01:32.15] |
Coppin' 'em Range Rovers with me |
| [01:34.70] |
Sittin' on thangs and smokin' trees |
| [01:37.58] |
And if it wasn't for the will that God had made |
| [01:41.69] |
I'd turn back the hands of time and take your place |
| [01:43.06] |
Sittin' here sippin' on this Hennessey |
| [01:46.06] |
Just thinkin' about what you meant to me, my nigga |
| [01:49.31] |
Even though you're gone, you will always be my nigga |
| [01:53.92] |
Though you made it home, I'm still missin' you, my nigga |
| [01:58.10] |
I'm feelin' like the timing was wrong, my nigga |
| [01:59.85] |
I know you're smilin' down sayin', Carry on, my nigga |
| [02:09.06] |
Sometimes my nights can get long, my nigga |
| [02:10.49] |
Sometimes I feel God did me wrong, my nigga |
| [02:11.55] |
So I had to write a song, my nigga |
| [02:12.67] |
Just to let you know that you're still my nigga |
| [02:14.79] |
I wish, I wish, I wish |
| [02:16.55] |
I wish, I wish, I wish |
| [02:18.35] |
Your little son is lookin' at me like, Where's my daddy? |
| [02:20.91] |
And your thirteen-year old daughter is mad 'cuz she understands |
| [02:22.65] |
Promised your mama I'd take care of the family |
| [02:26.03] |
But she's so hurt, she turns away my helpin' hands |
| [02:28.46] |
Damn, I wish your ass was here, my nigga |
| [02:31.21] |
To grow that gray beard and smoke that cigar, my nigga |
| [02:34.52] |
And we would talk about you gettin' up out this game |
| [02:37.26] |
And you would tell me how it keeps callin' your name |
| [02:40.06] |
We used to ride, ride, ride |
| [02:42.25] |
Never afraid to die, die, die |
| [02:43.88] |
But some times we'd cry, cry, cry |
| [02:46.50] |
Askin' the Lord, why, why, why |
| [02:49.24] |
They're tearin' down these projects |
| [02:52.49] |
We were homies for like twenty thug years |
| [02:53.80] |
Sat in church and cried the same thug tears |
| [02:55.92] |
You remember when Vibe World Premier |
| [02:58.29] |
How we used to share the same old gear |
| [03:02.34] |
And remember when you and me would say |
| [03:05.03] |
We'd get up out this hood and everything would be okay |
| [03:08.02] |
It's all good now |
| [03:09.89] |
My nigga, we out the hood now |
| [03:12.08] |
It's so easy for folks to say, Rob, just live on |
| [03:17.19] |
When I'm dyin' every second that you're gone |
| [03:20.31] |
Nevertheless, I try my best to be strong |
| [03:21.31] |
Hopin' you said your prayers before you went on home |
| [03:25.87] |
We done stood on these blocks and just shot the breeze |
| [03:28.24] |
We'd slap-box dead in the middle of streets |
| [03:30.36] |
And if a fight broke out, you would take up for me |
| [03:34.04] |
Now all I have left are these ghetto memories |
| [03:36.36] |
I wish, I wish, I wish |
| [03:39.53] |
I wish, I wish, I wish |
| [03:42.40] |
Uh, uh, yo' dog, I can't explain how I miss you |
| [03:46.08] |
We stayed together, coppin' cane, poppin' pistols |
| [03:47.64] |
I miss you most, puttin' the doo-rag over your bean head |
| [03:49.52] |
Even out the hood on the scene you brag |
| [03:52.20] |
Comin' up off the fiends wit bags, runnin' up out the cleanest Jag |
| [03:56.13] |
You was the closest nigga I had |
| [03:58.76] |
Look how we stayed aces hustled, made big faces |
| [04:01.38] |
I wish we could trade places |
| [04:02.68] |
F**k givin' you ice I'd rather give you life |
| [04:04.74] |
And the things that I had, I'd give you twice |
| [04:08.31] |
What the deal, my nigga? I know you holdin' it down |
| [04:12.73] |
If you could see me you would say, I'm talkin' soft right now |
| [04:15.85] |
But it's hard for me to say when I'ma see you again |
| [04:18.10] |
And I know it's f**ked up, I gotta talk through this pen |
| [04:21.10] |
But you'd died for the love of the dough |
| [04:23.59] |
The love of the block sixteen you was runnin' the spot |
| [04:26.65] |
Boy, your mama used to hate how we stood on the curb |
| [04:29.64] |
Hangin' with wild thug niggas smokin' the herb |
| [04:31.95] |
I'm gonna keep pourin' this liquor and that's my word |
| [04:35.94] |
This here is for niggas that be flippin' them birds, word up |
| [04:38.69] |
Even though you're gone you will always be my nigga |
| [04:41.06] |
Even though you're home I'm still missin you, my nigga |
| [04:44.87] |
I'm feelin' like the timing was wrong, my nigga |
| [04:46.56] |
(I'm feelin' like timing was wrong) |
| [04:48.61] |
I know you're smilin' down sayin', Carry on, my nigga |
| [04:52.80] |
(Radio, please don't take the nigga out my song) |
| [04:55.29] |
Sometimes my nights can get long, my nigga |
| [04:58.22] |
(Let it play on, play on, play on, play on, play on) |
| [05:00.22] |
Sometimes I feel God did me wrong, my nigga |
| [05:01.53] |
So I had to write a song, my nigga |
| [05:02.66] |
Just to let you know that you're still my nigga |
