Loved Ones

I gotta ball for my dead homies

I gotta ball for my dead homies

I count this bread for my dead homies

Smoking dodo in your mama house

She get off work early, cussing at us, and kick us out

Popping wheelies on aqueducts in the summer

We stealing minibikes whistle when Gonzalez was coming

And I remember Shaniqua gave you the cold shoulder

Says she don't fuck with niggas that's chirping on Boost Mobiles

I'm laughing at you and praying that the choppers don't catch you

(Never catch me, never)

(Never catch me, never)

(Never catch me, never)

We ditching third period just to fuck your school up

We know where you from homie, uniforms can't fool us

Chalk it up like you s'posed

Cornrows with the zags in the middle

Platinum FUBU jeans, rubber bands wrapped around the denim

I remember

(Ooh, I remember)

I can feel when you around

You forever hold it down

I return the favor when I'm on stages

In love and memory, no enemy could separate us

And so I gotta say this

How I'm laughing, now I'm crying, I miss you (I miss you)

How I fought you, I hugged you, I remember (oh, I remember)

I love it even if I get no bigger

You're forever my dawg, my nigga

I'm in this club thinking 'bout my boys

As I cry tears of joy like

Woo-woo-woo-woo

(Woo-woo-woo-woo)

Woo-woo-woo-woo

Pushing foreigns, flying cars

Poppin' trophies, by the mall

Bring back Derek, Stunna Deuce

Pat Dawg that's my cousin, love him too

Wishing I could reverse, us patrolling the turf

Tam's burger for breakfast, chili fries on my shirt

Granny said go to church, how often did we listen?

Sunday school wasn't cool, let's be getting at bitches

Aw man, I got weight on my shoulder

Aw man, I got

Aw man, I got so many angels to feed

Look to the heavens, they depend on me

This personal, I hope you know my loyalty

Will always run deep

So I put it down two times

When I'm on these beats

Put my candle in the street

Put my faith in where you at

Gone, but you're not forgotten

Chad, I promise I'll be back

I'm saying

I'm laughing, I'm crying, I miss you (I miss you)

I fought you, I hugged you, I remember (ooh, I remember)

I love it even if I get no bigger

You're forever my dawg, my nigga

I'm in this club thinking 'bout my boys

As I cry tears of joy like

Woo-woo-woo-woo

(Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo)

(Woo-woo-woo-woo)

(Woo-woo-woo-woo)

(Ba-Ba, bow-bow)

You can't change the world if you can't change yourself (I am)

You can please the world, but not God himself (I am)

You can have the world and still need some help (I am)

You outlast the world, if your heart is real (I am)

You can't change the world if you can't change yourself (I am)

You can please the world, but not God himself (I am)

You can have the world and still need some help (I am)

You outlast the world, if your heart is real (I am)
