[00:01.58]song: how come
[00:02.50]
[00:05.14]
[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]
[00:33.14]
[00:33.31]
[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 ****in' other niggers musta hurt your pride or somethin'
[02:02.48]cause you won't **** 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]like my finger get to snappin' and *poof* it just happen.
[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,
