To my dearly departed Shit's becomin' all that I feared, where it started that nothing's as it appears, swear it's retarded No wonder I get by my peers, yeah I'm a target It used to take a of millions for niggas not to be Amerikkka's Most gave hope Back the music had a message in it We was rebels it The best was intended to the gimmicks, but now made a mess of it And somebody gotta this shit Rakim never wear a dress and shit I ain't a pessimist to say I ain't with it Your hearing's bad, you think it's alive, now that's the in it it was all about bars, wanted to weddin' it Surround yourself with bullshit, you'll be to step in it Came here with one objective, it further Now I'm my first love die, witnessin' murder When Common stopped ol' girl, what was he tellin' me? Cold world, now she dig you without a melody Love nerds, used to be into with felonies We need a new president, the fuck is Eric B? Or did my wordplay her? Now I see her with Young Thug and Like did you niggas do to her now My generalization is generation The imminent of this gentrification, desensitization I call her, she's in Marvin's room, is awkward now She moved more to south, her New Yorker crowd Met her with a cane, she changed, to walk it out Stopped meat when she heard I worked in a slaughterhouse Now she's a new glued to the fame She used to accessorizin', now she's wearin' two chains Relationship too strained, I don't know who to When I tell her, "You've changed", she say, "Who be the same" She right, this ain't the way we knew each other Or do I the fact that maybe we outgrew each other? It a while, but that's finally understood She wouldn't if she could I swear if is love, I'm good
Everything has I can see it in fact Starin' at these four walls, that they're starin' back a while, now it's finally understood Would we it if we could? I swear if is love, I'm good
