lyrics

‘Cause life’s too short, it’s just a beautiful Haiku

Happily not after completing the cycle

Telling your rightful heirs to bare thrones

Carrying the microphone make them aware of they vitals

A father a brother a son leader and trifle

Walking on thin ground like a ballet recital

Hiding guns in bibles instinctive primal

This decree to make peace depends on (A rifle/our rivals/arrival)

‘Cause love ubiquitous, never outmaneuvered us

Have to keep the movement up even in a montage with

camouflage suited up and still standing out

respect is due, but not handed out my casual

plan to action ran about a can of liquid satisfaction

Harem out the homies doin mad subtractions

Open new horizons, with new interaction

While I never showed while they was maxing

But I’m asking. Too late to tell when they be passing

I’d rather let a sicko than to know it’s my last when

It’s a party or the funeral you ended up

crashing You understand it’s everlasting

For the memory

that we stay behind

On the avenue

that we took in stride

Could not run it back

Never live it down

When we pour one out

Salut

Libation is the affirmation. We taste liquor not

to get twisted but to send the ones we miss a salutation

My homie passed away when he was barely

sixteen when his caddy turned colder than an avalanche

He never had the chance, to wipe his mama's tears.

Fogging up his windshield as it shattered to

a million pieces. Shit, he had so many drinks

He didn’t even notice when he heard the tires screeching

(Screech) Head spinning he was full of venom

And I was spiderman, trying to reach the good within him

Wish I could tell him pop the clutch and put in in reverse

‘Cause popping bottles like stepping on the throttle but

You in a herse. Yeah, I miss the conversations

Blowing smoke like the exhaust, now you higher than the

Constellations, now I’m standing with this liquor bottle

Pour a little out to lift your honor
