I remeber when we were kids

We shed all our hurt and tears (and tears)

No matter what the weather, what the weather

We were always togerther (always together)

We grew up as time went on

We became seperated (seperated)

(chorus 2x)

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When my homie went away ( when my homie went away)

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When kevin went away (when kevin went away)

( master p )

Kevin life aint tha even tho we gots tah change

See momma dont understand how you died in tha game

And grandma get older, little kevin hes a soldier

We done made it out da ghetto aint no more run'n for tha rollers

Tattooed your face on my arm so you legacy could live on

You said "p be strong" with out you we all alone

I know its been a few years you your birthday we shed tears

And i don't wanna question you god

But why he took you and left us here?

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When my homie went away (when my homie went away)

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When my homie went away (when my homie went away)

( silkk )

Look -- just thinkin about you my nigga bring tears to my eyes

I mean im hard and all but even tha realish niggaz cry

And when you left, part of me died too

And who ever knew kevin like i knew kevin shhh ya'll would cry too

Just think'n about you, if you were still here

How much different remenisin on one of your pictures

Lookin at the family thinkin we always got one miss'n

And i can still remember tha last words (and mine aint even started)

Look your never forgotton cuz on your birthday i go and put flowers on your

Grave

I still remember when p and c broke tha news to me at school about your death

Told me "silkk time would heal our wounds"

Its been oh five years and i aint healed yet

Now i feel somthing i'm tryin tryin to be strong

I know moms tryin to hold on

Even tho your here and your gone

I got so many questions, thats why i cant move on

(its somthing about you)

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When my homie went away (when my homie went away)

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When my homie went away (when my homie went away)

( c-murder )

Now as i could remember (remember)

A couple of months before december (december)

I still can't take tha pain

We all are stuck in this ghetto rain

I learned my lesson, could your blessings

Watch your enemys and watch your friends

And if it aint your blood dont show that man no love

Cuz kindness make you weak and cause blindness in tha streets

And the vultures commin to get you

When none of ur real homies is wit ya

And its sad cant break the cycle

And take a drink wit my uncle michael

And my momma question my silence

But i blame this sinceless violence

Don't wanna wake up cuz when imma asleep

You still alive up in my dreams

A few seconds of happy thoughts to keep my mind at eaze

And then kevin its like you ghost my body freeze when ever i see him

If anybody got yours ways, you know it'd be him

(repeat 2x)

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When my homie went away (when my homie went away)

It was a sad day (it was a sad day)

When my homie went away (when my homie went away)
