| I woke up today and thought my. |
| my…
|
| Been a while since I heard from you old friend
|
| Not a text or a email to open
|
| Let alone a phone call to answer
|
| And ain’t nothing funny
|
| But I thought you was stand up
|
| But what is funny is the time it’ll take me to finish this verse
|
| I could’ve called
|
| And ask you ‘the fuck you been up to so long?'
|
| See a part of me still got love for your player
|
| Part of me is like ‘eat a dick you traitor'
|
| But I suppose that’s how the game goes
|
| When egos collide and dreams you let die
|
| Come back to haunt you every time you see my shine
|
| I’ve been
|
| Doing well, doing great
|
| I''ve been the best I’ve been since I’ve been solo
|
| Since I’ve been focused
|
| Still the same me
|
| Don’t smile in my photos
|
| Tell me where we, tell me where we
|
| Tell me where we went wrong and faded
|
| Split at the seems and can’t sew mistakes
|
| And so it seems we can’t sew these seeds now
|
| Speaking of seeds
|
| I got a daughter now holmie
|
| She’s only three, but she extra bossy
|
| I got her bumpin that Kendrick, Outkast some classic Wu songs
|
| That Nasty Nas shit that we grew up on
|
| And I’m still getting used to this fatherhood stuff
|
| Paranoid that might let her down
|
| So I tell her everyday that I love her more than anything
|
| And you wouldn’t believe what happened on the day she was born
|
| We was on the 14 th floor and so proud
|
| Hearts full of joy and beating so loud
|
| My folks on their way to see their fourth grandchild, right
|
| But then I get a call from my brother so vivid
|
| Mom and dad just got into a head on collision
|
| Right outside the hospital too, shit
|
| So now I’m running down to the ER
|
| Hoping to god that god ain’t this twisted
|
| Hands shaking, heart pounding, head spinning
|
| Thinking this can’t be how this day finish
|
| But when I found out that they made it out alive
|
| Shit I could’ve died, shit I could’ve died
|
| Made me realize, made me realize
|
| This life is so precious
|
| Shit can change in a heartbeat
|
| Ain’t no use holding grudges or
|
| Waiting to tell you how much I loved you
|
| How much you meant to me
|
| I can’t fathom
|
| Then I went back to the 14 th floor
|
| Held Mimi so tight and gave thanks to the lord
|
| Made me realize all this music shit is just bonus to me
|
| I’ve been living in a heaven but ain’t know it to be
|
| I guess its kind of why I wrote you this
|
| And shared these thoughts
|
| To let you know that I’ve never forgot
|
| And even though we strayed and we went separate ways
|
| I wouldn’t be me if I hadn’t met you
|
| I wouldn’t be here if we never had met
|
| Never had a dream, never planted those seeds
|
| And maybe one day we can try to make amends
|
| But until then
|
| I’m sending you much love
|
| Sincerely an old friend |
