They ain't know 'bout him way back when
Made him feel like he was nothin' then
But how 'bout now, keep him out ya mouth
(Keep him out ya mouth)
They ain't know 'bout him way back when
Made him feel like he was nothin' then
But how 'bout now, keep him out ya mouth
(Keep him out ya mouth)
Don't believe in me, you ain't seein' me
What you see in me?
Ion know and ion care
Man let's be fair
I never will and you steady kill
You beat me down, yeah for the thrill
Dragged through the mud
Man I hope I heal
Time hit a lick, then it did the dash
Now it's on my ass as I run from past
Cousin grabbed the gun and he got his mask
Wanna hit this house cause some nigga done ran his mouth
Scratched out, blacked out, black out
Done chasin' cat now
Shoot his shot but he fouled out
Done fell off but he's comin' back
Cracked down, you gettin' cracked now
Black king need a black crown
He 'bout to die so he glad now
That's how he felt when he found out
Awaiting trial, only God can judge
Only one above
Ain't wanna stand so instead he hung
Man this shit is crazy, he was way too young
And the family's pressed, don't know what's next
(They don't know what's next)
They ain't know 'bout him way back when
Made him feel like he was nothin' then
How 'bout now, keep him out ya mouth
(Keep him out ya mouth)
They ain't know 'bout him way back when
Made him feel like he was nothin' then
How 'bout now, keep him out ya mouth
(Better watch ya mouth)
Never got involved, thought he couldn't fall
So he risked it all
Flyin' high, crucified through the wrist and all
Family loved him but he never called
Wasn't in the field, yeah he never balled
He had been hurt people did him wrong
And he wrote this song
Now he's dead in dirt
He played the games, friends turned to snakes
So he'd isolate just to face his fate
He wasn't trippin', knew that death awaits
They'll take his place, he was in his head
Tryna stay afloat, tryna get ahead
But he lost his temper back in November
He spazzin' out, he can't remember
All the shit he had
That boy got hot
No infrared
But it's straight cause now he's dead
All the things were said, he was a bright young man
So why the hell is he layin' dead?
He the worst of kids, served no purpose
And he showed his friends what worthless is
Tatted on his skin, he done fled his kin
Just a name when you reminisce
And he'd shine so bright
But was a pessimist
He'll blow your mind, that's what he did to his
(That's what he did to his, yeah)
