| Aiyyo, what up Reese? It's been a minute since we last spoke | |
| Side by side, in circle round mad folks | |
| We took it round each other wishing we were still close | |
| But I'm grown and it's tough for you to swallow | |
| I know it hit you hard when your boys hit you | |
| And your lovers, I never glance back to | |
| Even though life keep me racing like a track dude | |
| I bailed out in your time of need | |
| But you fucked me over in your time of greed | |
| We from the same womb, what happened to the creed? | |
| An unspoken word between you and I | |
| J-B's for life, we ain't supposed to cry | |
| Remember after my first fight, we stayed up all night | |
| Getting taught how to throw them thangs | |
| If he defeat I, it's the force you bring | |
| Harassing Kevin after lunch for about a week | |
| How did we get to the point when we would hardly speak? | |
| Pulling up to the house, fresh change of sneaks | |
| Big buckets, pants stay tight from the big duckets | |
| We all loved it, I was so na•ve | |
| Big brother kept me smiling, tricks up his sleeve | |
| Had me facing claves, cases and stacks of threes | |
| My God, it ain't what it supposed to be | |
| Barbeques, family and friends close to me | |
| [Chorus] | |
| Aiyyo, I know we ain't spoke in a while | |
| It's kinda foul cause a nigga getting older, ain't no time for you now | |
| Wishing you was right here so I could hold you now | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| Aiyyo, I know we ain't spoke in a while | |
| It's kinda foul, cause you getting older and now I'm missing your smile | |
| And we went our separate ways, ain't no problems now | |
| Cause one day, we gon' still get down | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| Get-get-a-get-get down | |
| Get-get-a-get-a-get-get down | |
| Get to get, yo say, get to get | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| Aiyyo, I know we ain't spoke in a while | |
| It's kinda foul cause a nigga getting older, ain't no time for you now | |
| Wishing you was right here so I could hold you now | |
| Cause one day we gon' still get down | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| [Verse 2: Phonte] | |
| Check it, now what the deal baby? I'm still here, still crazy | |
| I'm real sorry we ain't had a chance to chill lately | |
| Or even talk as often now, congratulations | |
| They telling me you almost walking now | |
| Roads of life I'm crossing now | |
| Can't wait to get you back to NC so we can all get down | |
| And get real tight, have you dressed up rocking the ill Nikes | |
| Show you what a father is supposed to feel like | |
| It's been nights that I wake up thinking that I hear you | |
| Back of my mind start feeling fearful | |
| Thinking if the words I say are really getting to you | |
| And when I hold you in my arms if my face look familiar to you | |
| That shit is killing me dude, I pray that your eyes remember me | |
| Black and white is all you can see in embassy | |
| And eventually I'll have you on some comfortable shit | |
| Two parent income, Claire and Cliff Huxtable shit | |
| But right now it's all about this long distance | |
| All I can do is get along with it, try and be strong with it | |
| Fuck being long winded | |
| Hearing you laugh is like music to my ears but the song ended | |
| Me and your moms both missing your smile and all your silly faces | |
| Even your hurl on our pillowcases | |
| Goddamn it, this ain't how life supposed to be | |
| Cause baby boy, you should be close to me, now run it down | |
| [Chorus] | |
| Aiyyo, I know we ain't spoke in a while | |
| It's kinda foul, cause you getting older and now I'm missing your smile | |
| And we went our separate ways, ain't no problems now | |
| Cause one day, we gon' still get down | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| Aiyyo, I know we ain't spoke in a while | |
| It's kinda foul cause a nigga getting older, ain't no time for you now | |
| Wishing you was right here so I could hold you now | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| Cause one day we gon' still get down | |
| Get-get-a-get-get down | |
| Get-get-a-get-a-get-get down | |
| Get to get, yo say, get to get down | |
| One day we gon' still get down | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| Aiyyo, I know we ain't spoke in a while | |
| It's kinda foul, cause you getting older and now I'm missing your smile | |
| And we went our separate ways, ain't no problems now | |
| Cause one day, we gon' still get down | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| [Outro: Phonte] | |
| Yo, this one is for our peoples that is out there | |
| We just want you to know y'all ain't forgot there | |
| Oh yeah, we hearing y'all, and yeah, we feeling y'all | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| And yo, this one is for my peoples that is out there | |
| And Little Dil and Little Jordan ain't forgot there | |
| Oh yeah, we hearing y'all, and yeah, we feeling y'all | |
| (You're so far away from me) | |
| And yo, this one is for my peoples that is out there | |
