[00:21.81]
[00:22.83]Let's take a trip down memory
[00:24.05]
[00:24.88]lane at the cemetery
[00:26.02]Rain grey skies, seems at the end of every
[00:29.21]young black life is this line, "Damn - him already
[00:32.20]Such a good kid," got us pouring Henn' already
[00:34.98]Liquor to the curb for my, ******s up above
[00:37.30]When it, cracks through the pavement
[00:38.92]that's my way of sendin love
[00:39.93]So, give Big a hug, tell Aa-liyah I said hi
[00:43.25]'Til the next time I see her, on the other side
[00:45.44]
[00:45.99]He was just some thug that, caught some slugs
[00:48.34]
[00:48.92]And we loved him cause, in him we, saw some of us
[00:51.87]He walked like us, talked like us
[00:54.00]
[00:54.63]His back against the wall
[00:55.85]****** fought like us - damn
[00:57.47]
[00:58.17]Poor Isis, that's his momma name
[00:59.88]Momma ain't strong enough to raise
[01:01.62]no boy, what's his father name
[01:03.59]Shorty never knew him
[01:04.84]though he had his blood in him
[01:06.26]Hot temper, momma said he act
[01:08.05]just like her hu******and
[01:09.17]Daddy never ****** with him
[01:10.68]so the streets raised him
[01:12.02]Isis blaming herself
[01:12.83]she wish she could've saved him
[01:14.28]
[01:14.80]Damn near impossible, only men can raise men
[01:17.54]He was his own man
[01:18.58]not even him can save him
[01:20.27]He put his faith in a
[01:21.48]thirty-eight in his waist
[01:22.85]But when you live by
[01:24.11]the gun you die by the same fate
[01:25.81]End up, dead before thirty-eight and umm
[01:28.82]That's the life of us raised
[01:30.31]by winter, it's a cold world
[01:32.33]Old girl turned to coke
[01:33.53]tried to smoke her pain away
[01:35.05]Isis, life just, ended on that rainy day
[01:37.92]When she got the news her boy
[01:39.36]body could be viewed
[01:40.32]down at the City Morgue
[01:41.58]opened the drawer, saw him nude
[01:43.26]Her addiction grew, prescription drugs, ******ft and brew
[01:47.10]Angel dust, dipped in WOO!
[01:49.24]She slipped into, her own fantasy world
[01:51.72]
[01:52.29]Had herself pregnant by a different dude
[01:54.75]But reality bites and, this is her life
[01:57.79]He wasn't really her hu******and
[01:59.44]though he called her wife
[02:00.67]It was just this night when, moon was full
[02:03.62]And the stars were just right
[02:05.11]and the dress was real tight
[02:06.33]Had her sounding like Lisa Lisa
[02:08.17]I wonder if I take you home
[02:09.51]will you still love me after this night
[02:11.54]
[02:12.51]Mike was the hardhead from the around the way
[02:14.83]that she wanted all her life
[02:16.49]******t she wanted all the hype
[02:18.10]Used to hold on tight
[02:19.38]when he wheelied on the bike
[02:20.63]He was a Willie all her life
[02:22.00]he wasn't really the one to like
[02:23.44]It was a, dude named Shy who
[02:25.22]would really treat her right
[02:26.40]He wanted to run to the country
[02:27.75]to escape the city life
[02:28.99]
[02:29.53]But I-sis, like this, Broadway life
[02:31.57]She loved the Gucci sneakers
[02:33.49]the red green and whites
[02:35.05]Hangin out the window when
[02:36.46]she first seen him fight
[02:37.96]She was so turned on that
[02:39.40]she had to shower twice
[02:40.46]
[02:40.98]How ironic it would, be some fight that
[02:43.79]turned into a homicide
[02:45.17]that'll alter their life
[02:46.57]See Mike at thirty-two was
[02:47.79]still on the scene
[02:49.44]Had a son fifteen that he never saw twice
[02:51.67]
[02:52.26]Sure he saw him as an infant
[02:53.88]but he dissed on him like
[02:55.34]"If that was my son, he would look much different
[02:58.06]See I'm light-skinned and that baby there's dark
[03:00.77]so it's, momma's baby; poppa's maybe
[03:03.09]
[03:03.69]Mike was still crazy out there running
[03:05.60]the streets （****** ******s want?）
[03:06.69]Had his old reliable
[03:07.69]with thirty-eight gun in his reach
[03:09.35]It's been fourteen years
[03:10.69]him and Isis ain't speak
[03:12.16]He running around like life's a peach, 'til one day
[03:15.18]he approached this thug that, had a mean mug
[03:17.61]
[03:18.22]And it looked so familiar
[03:19.68]that he called him "Young Cuz"
[03:20.70]Told him, get off the strip
[03:22.30]but the boy ain't budge （****** you）
[03:23.94]Instead he pulled out a newer thirty-eight snub
[03:26.62]He clearly had the drop
[03:28.14]but the boy just paused （hold up）
[03:29.39]There was somethin in this man's
[03:30.95]face he knew he seen before
[03:32.31]It's like, lookin in the mirror
[03:33.74]seeing hisself more mature
[03:34.88]
[03:35.42]And he took it as a sign from the almighty Lord
[03:38.24]You know what they say about he
[03:39.94]who hesitates in war
[03:41.21]（What's that?） He who hesitates is lost
[03:43.63]He can't explain what he saw before
[03:45.51]his picture went blank
[03:46.49]The old man didn't think he
[03:47.95]just followed his instinct
[03:49.36]
[03:49.92]Six shots into his kid, out of the gun
[03:52.58]******s be a father, you're Killing your son
[03:55.40]Six shots into his kid, out of the gun
[03:58.53]******s be a father, you Killing your sons
