"Love, comes and goes" [x2] |
|
I saw ya, the day before your death before you took your last breath |
|
How many of my real niggaz are still left? |
|
A lot got killed, and filled a wooden box |
|
And went out like ?docks? |
|
I can picture when you went down, just like a ?becks? |
|
Here one day, and gone the next |
|
We all make mistakes, and these are the breaks |
|
But I'm, sick and tired, of goin to wakes |
|
And seein an end, to my friend |
|
So we kicked it to the L to get some brew and gin |
|
Nobody said nothin everyone was pissed |
|
As we got drunk and reminisced |
|
At your funeral, your head we kissed |
|
Didn't go to the burial, but you'll be missed |
|
That's if you didn't know, from your true friends and not your foes |
|
Cause love comes and goes |
|
"Love, comes and goes" [x4] |
|
Now my man, he never had no problems |
|
But he got killed, when niggaz tried to rob him |
|
Because they knew when they did it, they couldn't get away with it |
|
So they killed him, took the dough and split it |
|
Thinkin about the money, and not his four kids |
|
A couple got caught, and now they're doin bids |
|
Loot is worth more than a life, cause niggaz livin trife |
|
My man had four kids, and a wife |
|
Now the kids don't have a father and the wife don't have a husband |
|
Because when, you did what you did |
|
The future of his kids may fall down... |
|
... cause he ain't around |
|
I went to his funeral, thinkin maybe soon it will be me |
|
Cause Boston got a lot of jealousy |
|
A lot of people just can't take it when another brother makes it |
|
When he makes it, that's when they wanna take it |
|
But there's one thing I know... |
|
... love comes and goes |
|
"Love, comes and goes" [x4] |
|
The most I remember of you, is in the pictures |
|
You were my pops and I won't forget ya |
|
I wish you coulda been there, to see me grow up |
|
Come up like throw up, and blow up, as an entertainer |
|
I think you woulda been proud |
|
To see me at a show, and move the crowd |
|
Your best friend, shot you over five dollars, that ain't right |
|
The money mattered, and not the life |
|
I wonder what you woulda told me, to get a girl and lay her |
|
Cause my moms told me you were a player |
|
They tell me I'm your spittin image, from the line of scrimmage |
|
But you was wild unlike my mother I'm timid |
|
God works in different ways and it shows |
|
And everybody knows love comes and goes |
|
