Memories back then of way back when…
Memories of who, yeah we lost a few
I’d get the Ac, you get my back…
After school it’s just how we’d do…
Roll it up pass it around,
inhale, exhale, whose flow to be found
I was with him and you all respected,
never an advance was even rejected
Cause it didn’t exist…
Oh wait, me and him we had a kiss…
but after that we never hung again
Cause a friend to me is just a friend,
Need a dollar, here’s a dollar, nah brother man here have two
It didn’t mean shit to us, it’s just how we’d do
You look out for me and I’ll look out for you
You all would wile out, I’d chase you about
BUT anything to keep you all OUT that station
Not a thing I wouldn’t do for you all without hesitation
Being one of the only girls, I always felt protected
MAD haters but I knew when shit popped off they always interjected
Like that one bitch who was gonna suck that steal dick
Hung up the phone and drove to Beave like real quick,
He wouldn’t let her out like he knew what was up
What my life would be like now and that’s whats up
Ain’t seen him since he try to convince
Me to hit that party…. Shook my head
I knew he was getting me back for his favorite shawty
But when the lights turn low in the middle of the church
I still think of all the times I saw through their eyes like a bird’s perch
Hook
Met him in the admissions office, he showed me around school
He used to kick it like crazy, I should’ve stayed with the one I started with, I was a fool
He used to chase me around school trying to get me to go to class
We always had an argument cause I had sass
I wouldn’t smoke, wouldn’t touch a drug, and it just made me evil
He was high all the time but my first true friend and we were truly equal
I used to yell at him to put the drugs down, he used to yell at me tell me stop running around
Lust, nah, I’d have to disagree – cause most times it felt nothing more than brotherly.
We used to stay on the phone for hours, while playing marble madness
Now he’s gone, way too long, and his death is a true source of my sadness
I miss him….
L? I can’t front,
I should’ve known better then to mess with him
But truth is I saw you there and trusted within
We wrote one day, but you know how this game play
His voice was so faint, I couldn’t even hear a word he say
I never judged him, he always had a smile upon his face
Used to HATE when he showed up at the room but I just felt it wasn’t my place
I’d think if it was back in the day, I would’ve hemmed him up and cursed him out
Still to this day I don’t know what it was that made me shut my mouth
Addiction – I know it well
And how I’d feel when I tried to keep it DL
I know I was wrong, and I’d never get over it
They crack and spit and sound too legit
Chorus
Then there was two, I chose you
Had the choice again and look how I do
Maybe I got a point to prove or am true to a conviction
Truth is I see the soul through the eyes and I ain’t losing another fact to fiction
He played me for a mistress, but to me he’d never let it be
Never let me see, how true he was to she
I just felt it…
Took me at first sight, by the trucks
For once I was truly down to fuck
Naïve, really never knew
Opened up to you
My new Best friend loyal to the end
Remember city runs, running out of funds
10 minutes on that bridge felt like an eternity
You would of thought me then insane when I was ready to jump
If you all was ready to pump
Cause you introduced me to a life to help me find away
I regret my choices, I let my mind run astray
Then I had to chase my car all around town
Calling every police station no luck to found
Truth is I knew back then, white wasn’t good enough
But behind the tint, I could call her bluff
Looked like a black girl cause of my features
But she knew that day in court on the bleachers
Flashed an eye to the judge, she knew it was just a grudge
Though I never healed, I just moved on
Then one day you just were gone
