| That’s why I called my thing The Marathon
|
| Because I, I’m not gon' lie and portray, um, this ultimate poise
|
| Like I been had it figured out
|
| Nah, I just didn’t quit
|
| That’s the only distinguishing quality
|
| From me and probably whoever else is goin' through this
|
| Or went through this, or is gonna go through this
|
| Is that I ain’t quit
|
| I went through every emotion
|
| I went through every emotion with tryna pursue what I’m doing
|
| You know what I mean?
|
| And I think that what, what’s gon' separate whoever’s gon' try to go for
|
| something is that you ain’t gon' quit
|
| That’s, you know, you really gon' take the stance of I’m gon' die behind what
|
| I’m gettin' at right now
|
| You are now listening to AraabMUZIK
|
| Your voice keep playin' in my head
|
| Don’t wanna believe you dead, no way that no nigga killed you
|
| I know that’s not what I read, God damn, Nip
|
| We was both rollin', but you was really my man, Nip
|
| You made me proud to tell the whole world I’m a damn Crip
|
| This marathon gon' continue, nigga, I can’t quit
|
| This marathon gon' continue, nigga, I can’t quit
|
| This marathon gon' continue, nigga, I can’t quit
|
| I can still hear you screamin' neighborhood
|
| Dirt Gang when you would see me, why they hate on cuz?
|
| I just sent you a song, was waitin' on your verse
|
| We was doin' a tape together, they ain’t know your worth
|
| Nobody told me after Freaky died it’s gon' get worse
|
| They ain’t understand your vision
|
| You spoke for them nights I was hungry, we shakin' prison
|
| But they just hate you did it
|
| I asked you how to start a clothing line, you had me out on Slauson
|
| Blue Laces was my shit, the blueprint to bein' bosses
|
| You created that
|
| Remember when you played that beat for Clarity?
|
| You gave out so much free game that shit was charity
|
| You was at my birthday, my mama asked me about you
|
| She used to ask what my shirt say, «Ma, this is Crenshaw»
|
| I’m supportin' my brother, reminding me of myself
|
| Motivated me from the gutter, invited me to your videos
|
| I was smokin' Marathon OG with you
|
| Every time I touched down in LA I wanted to meet with you
|
| Me and Reg smokin' flight right in the parkin' lot
|
| Fatts had me in the store puttin' me a pack together
|
| I’ma listen to your raps forever
|
| On the real, fuck how they feel, Victory Lap was better
|
| South Central ain’t never gon' feel the same
|
| You got me scared cuz, it ain’t too many of us left
|
| «Go get that bread cuz», that’s what you said before you left
|
| We used to joke how we ain’t nothin' like these rap niggas
|
| Told me stay dangerous don’t let 'em see you react nigga
|
| I called your phone cryin' laughin' when you slapped that nigga
|
| You just told me, «Congrats, East, I head you actin', nigga»
|
| They killin' kings I no longer wanna chat with niggas
|
| If I could ask God for something just give me back my niggas
|
| If I could ask God for something just give me back my niggas
|
| Neighborhood
|
| Damn, Nip
|
| It’s amazing, homie
|
| Since you’ve been gone, you wouldn’t believe all the shit that’s going on
|
| I drove through your neighborhood the other day
|
| And I seen some Eight Tray Gangstas, some Hoovers, some Bounty Hunters
|
| I seen brothers from everywhere, man
|
| Showin' love, all in your memory
|
| Man, your legacy will live on
|
| Your legacy will live on, nephew
