lyrics

I think the first time I saw you it was 96, I was kid I fell in love with all the things you did, I probably didn't start to hang with you til 98 I was in the 6th grade you told me fuck establishment, I used to meet with you before I had to go to class first it was the birdhouse later by your habitat, you always got me through the shittiest of times and you was always on my mind I know some girlfriends couldn't handle that, your homie Tony made you famous yet you stayed so humble, you stayed loyal always royal even in a rumble, i never left you but sometimes I was elusive and i try to draw conclusions but they seem more like excuses, I used to save my lunch money just to ride with you, sometimes you'd scrape up my body like you had claws, caused me a lot of pain but nothing that I couldn't heal I always that because of you that I would sign a deal


almost everything I've done I've fuckin learned from you, you showed me most of all the music that i listen to, we used to sneak out and chill when I was house bound- hanging at the park, at the bank, maybe downtown, I see you talking to my little brothers nowadays I see it in their face they see the same thing I see in you, I tell em stories of the journeys that we've been thru nothing ever better than the days when it was me and you, when I be seeing you it's right where we left off I say I'm back again and then I fade away, maybe its fear, maybe just a lack of motivation when i do commit its like my troubles just go away, I see you everyday I know well always live close and there's some years it seems were fully back together
but i fear that the end is drawing near if we don't hang another year I think this time will be forever
