| [00:11.520] | I was 16 when the bell |
| [00:14.020] | on the phone rings |
| [00:15.140] | It's my homie from church an ex dope fiend |
| [00:17.940] | A little older wore his |
| [00:19.500] | heart on his shoulder |
| [00:20.810] | A hiphop head so we |
| [00:22.500] | connected on the totem |
| [00:23.620] | Back then I'd kick verses |
| [00:25.180] | and he'd be on the scrotum |
| [00:26.810] | I wish he were around to |
| [00:28.300] | hear these verses that I wrote Him |
| [00:29.990] | Just to clear the air |
| [00:31.170] | confusion and misquotings |
| [00:32.430] | A good kid with black |
| [00:33.980] | clouds following his motions |
| [00:35.540] | Like hear ye hear ye |
| [00:37.540] | but they don't hear me |
| [00:38.910] | The headline I've read for |
| [00:40.470] | the tenth time its eerie |
| [00:41.970] | three dead including |
| [00:43.160] | Sunday school teacher |
| [00:44.410] | An ex dope fiend |
| [00:45.920] | turned extroverted church leader |
| [00:47.970] | Is this realmy hairs |
| [00:49.230] | raised suddenly |
| [00:50.670] | I'm drowning in emotion |
| [00:52.040] | while shivers swim subtly |
| [00:53.420] | I read on |
| [00:54.850] | an affair that ends tragic |
| [00:56.660] | Teachers pleads for life |
| [00:58.060] | down the barrel of a magnum |
| [00:59.930] | Then point blank shot |
| [01:01.110] | dead together with his lover |
| [01:02.490] | Before the lovers husband |
| [01:03.800] | took his own life from him |
| [01:05.540] | My eyes turned red |
| [01:06.660] | welled up a watered gaze |
| [01:08.490] | From hurt fear and let |
| [01:10.600] | down in lots of ways |
| [01:11.850] | God Why would you |
| [01:13.470] | allow this if you save |
| [01:14.710] | When evil lurked within |
| [01:15.830] | why did my homie disobey |
| [01:17.460] | We got one life is it ok to be afraid |
| [01:20.450] | At least we got that option |
| [01:22.130] | stomping through this maze |
| [01:24.830] | Its ok to be afraid many |
| [01:26.590] | don't have that option that's |
| [01:28.490] | So we mourn today |
| [01:29.800] | |
| [01:33.040] | Here one day then gone away |
| [01:39.220] | |
| [01:39.850] | things will never be the same |
| [01:43.780] | |
| [01:59.540] | I remember her |
| [02:00.290] | soft skin and her caress |
| [02:02.290] | The mistakes that I made |
| [02:04.220] | and her grace |
| [02:05.840] | when I confessed |
| [02:07.090] | Like politics me |
| [02:08.340] | and her it was complex |
| [02:09.900] | But all the stains |
| [02:10.840] | would wash away |
| [02:11.650] | each time our minds |
| [02:12.640] | Connect |
| [02:13.270] | We had history |
| [02:14.270] | old school like a cassette |
| [02:15.270] | Together we opened doors |
| [02:16.200] | explored she knew me best |
| [02:17.950] | I imagined us forever ever ever |
| [02:19.630] | But now I wish I never met her |
| [02:22.570] | Why won't this feeling letup |
| [02:24.000] | I can't forget her |
| [02:25.250] | staring at our empty bed |
| [02:26.620] | The silence is screaming at me |
| [02:28.810] | so I stay awake instead |
| [02:30.120] | And in the sheets there's |
| [02:31.430] | rooms for extra legs |
| [02:32.990] | On my phone no SMS |
| [02:34.230] | missed calls or messages |
| [02:35.930] | From tying the knot |
| [02:37.600] | o farewell goodbyes and |
| [02:39.410] | My stomach twisted up in |
| [02:41.040] | knots like Bear Grylls tied them |
| [02:43.160] | The start and end it comes full sphere |
| [02:45.220] | From the cradle to the grave |
| [02:46.720] | I wish you were here |
| [02:48.210] | Here one day t |
| [02:50.520] | hen gone away |
| [02:51.830] | |
| [02:53.210] | things will never be the same |
| [02:57.450] | |
| [03:11.490] | It's been a little while |
| [03:12.990] | since I seen your face |
| [03:14.990] | getting kinda hard to move on |
| [03:17.280] | But the pain is motivation |
| [03:18.910] | |
| [03:19.560] | though its frustrating you |
| [03:21.180] | don't know what you have until it's gone |
| [03:24.740] | It's been a little while |
| [03:25.980] | since I seen your face |
| [03:27.180] | getting kinda hard to move on |
| [03:29.050] | But the pain is motivation |
| [03:31.160] | though its frustrating you |
| [03:32.650] | don't know what you have until it's gone |
| [03:35.960] | |
| [03:38.640] | then gone away |
| [03:40.250] | |
| [03:41.010] | then gone away |
| [03:44.770] | |
