YOU'D STILL BE BREATHIN
ITS MESSED UP HOW THE PEOPLE I LOVE
KEEP ON LEAVING
BACK IN THE HOOD WE WERE UNITED AS ONE
BUT LITTLE BY LITTLE
WE WERE DIVIDED BY THE GUN
WE TRUSTED EACH OTHER
CAUSE WE WERE ALL WE HAD
BUT WE BOTH HAD SOMETHING IN COMMON
WE BOTH DIDNT HAVE OUR DADS
TEARS WERE DRAWN OUT EVERYTIME ONE OF US DIED
BUT NOBODY COULD UNDERSTAND WHY WE TRUELY CRIED
WE GREW APART AND DECIDED TO SUPPORT DIFFERENT COLORS
BUT WE EVEN LOOKED BEYOND THAT
CAUSE WE WERE STILL BROTHERS
PEOPLE GOT TO TRIPPIN
THEY STARTED PUTTING THINGS IN YOUR HEAD
AFTER ALL WE HAD BEEN THROUGH
HOW COULD MY OWN BROTHER WANT ME DEAD
YOU NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO SEE MY DAUGHTER
SHE WOULD OF LOVED YOU
YOU WOULD OF BEEN HER GODFATHER
BUT IT WAS TOO LATE
YOU WERE TAKEN FROM US
BEFORE SHE WAS EVER BORN
ITS MESSED UP HOW THEY DID YOU
ITS LIKE APART OF ME WAS TORN
I LOVE YOU BRO
AND NO MATTER WHAT
YOU STILL LIVE THROUGH ME
DEATH TOOK AWAY ALL MY LOVED ONES
BUT LEFT ME TO REMAIN FREE
IN MY HEART
YOUR DEATH WONT EVER SET RIGHT
I GUESS THATS WHY I BREAK MY OWN HEART
WITH THESE DEDICATED POEMS THAT I WRITE
IF I WOULD OF BEEN THERE
YOU'D STILL BE BREATHIN
ITS MESSED UP HOW THE PEOPLE I LOVE
