[00:01.58] Song: How Come
[00:02.50]
[00:10.91] How come we dont even talk no more,
[00:14.05] and you dont even call no more.
[00:15.88] We dont barely keep in touch at all,
[00:17.89] and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more.
[00:21.13] And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin now.
[00:24.49] After all the years we been down,
[00:26.55] aint no way no how, this bullshit can't be true.
[00:29.85] We family and aint a damn thing changed, unless it's you
[00:32.98]
[00:33.49] So young, so full of life in vibrant,
[00:34.20] side by side wherever you was ridin' I went.
[00:38.05] So close, almost on some Bonnie & Clyde shit.
[00:40.74] When Ronnie died you was right by my side with a shoulder to cry on,
[00:44.57] tissue to wipe my eyes, and a bucket to catch every tear I cried inside it.
[00:48.71] You even had the same type of childhood I did.
[00:51.47] Sometimes I just want to know why is it that you surcame to yours
[00:54.80] and mine I survived it. You ran the streets, I 9 to 5'd it.
[00:59.06] We grew up, grew apart, as time went by us,
[01:01.75] then I blew up to both yours and mine surprises.
[01:04.41] Now I feel a vibe I just cant describe it,
[01:06.97] as much as your pride tries to hide it.
[01:09.02] Your cold, your touch it's just like ice
[01:10.92] in your eyes is the look of resenment
[01:12.59] I can sense it, and I dont like it.
[01:14.45]
[01:15.03] How come we dont even talk no more,
[01:17.36] and you dont even call no more.
[01:19.16] We dont barely keep in touch at all,
[01:21.15] and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more.
[01:24.39] And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin now.
[01:27.70] After all the years we been down,
[01:29.77] aint no way no how, this bullshit can't be true.
[01:33.11] We family and aint a damn thing changed, unless it's you
[01:36.73]
[01:37.18] It was my dream at first to be on spittin' a verse
[01:38.64] on my own album with a deal but shit got worse.
[01:41.28] So I came out, I woulda killed a nigga first
[01:44.03] before I let him disrespect me and check me over some worst.
[01:46.58] Some bitch that I wasn't with, I would hit her then quit.
[01:49.18] But you would pull a talk with her and tell her she was the shit.
[01:51.96] I told you dont get involved in it, you was smokin the chron with her
[01:55.11] comin' out of the bar with her stumblin half drunk
[01:57.30] like y'all was husband and wife or somethin'.
[01:59.30] But me catchin' you fuckin' other niggers musta hurt your pride or somethin'
[02:02.48] cause you won't fuck at the mouth with people like you wanted with me,
[02:05.33] when all I tried to do was show you that your bitch was shifty.
[02:08.00] And ever since the fans and all the shit that I produced,
[02:10.75] you actin' like I ain't your man and lyin' like she can't be loose.
[02:13.31] But I am really your friend, I'm just tryin' to tell you the truth,
[02:15.86] but dont hate the game or the player
[02:17.53] cause the one that's changing is you.
[02:18.42]
[02:19.41] How come we dont even talk no more,
[02:21.76] and you dont even call no more.
[02:23.67] We dont barely keep in touch at all,
[02:25.88] and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more.
[02:28.95] And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin now.
[02:32.32] After all the years we been down,
[02:34.43] aint no way no how, this bullshit can't be true.
[02:37.65] We family and aint a damn thing changed, unless it's you
[02:41.28]
[02:41.67] You're only at the top cause my homie had to stop,
[02:43.20] now we actin' like I gotta live only for the block.
[02:45.69] And homies in the hood, only she be on the tube,
[02:48.59] only gossip on the porch, get to speakin' on who.
[02:51.09] Fools I used to rap with all expect magic
[02:53.89]
[02:56.46] But Proof is just actin out the party was stoned,
[02:58.94] Shady made it so my babys ain't starvin' at home.
[03:01.50] See the devil in you grin, since the ghetto we been friends,
[03:04.49] whenever real intelligence thats forever till the end.
[03:07.05] I be the hatred in your eyes and the satan in your lives
[03:09.61] and wastin' my times with these snakes in disguise.
[03:12.38] (How come) when you talk it's with bitter and spite,
[03:14.98] and (How come) it's my fault for what you did with your life
[03:17.54] and everytime I go to hear you and play you look away.
[03:20.47] We barely embrace, you can't even look me in my face.
[03:23.48]
[03:24.02] How come we dont even talk no more,
[03:25.99] and you dont even call no more.
[03:27.78] We dont barely keep in touch at all,
[03:29.97] and I dont even feel the same love when we hug no more.
[03:33.02] And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin now.
[03:36.34] After all the years we been down,
[03:38.41] aint no way no how, this bullshit can't be true.
[03:41.67] We family and aint a damn thing changed, unless it's you
[03:45.75]
