[Verse 1]
Memories play back like film
I flash back, we was little niggas, living most real
1989's when we first met
We first clicked over convo, gettin' twisted
And dunn ran Earth's crib, cutting outta school
Watching cable, it seemed like the other day
Through the eyes of a stranger, we was kids
But in our own minds, we was grown mens
Outside on the block, we would play the bench
And y'all play the rock every chance y'all got
Whilst I sat back and just watched
Hey, what can I say?
The same back then as I am today
I can recall me, Jamil, and Jamal
In the room drinking straight vodka with they moms
When I'd walk home with the big Nefertiti charm
Back with the light blue camoflauge suit, god
Me and Hav' doing it hard, trying to get on
We sample songs on the box with Record and Pause
Killa B didn't even get his first firearm
And I was still holding one shot derringers
[Chorus]
Who would think any one of us would cease to exist?
Left with just thoughts of the past to reminisce
Sometimes I see a chick walking past with ya kids
Or find an old flick of us on 1-2-5th
All the shit that we been through, it boils to this?
Dunn, I wish we could start it all over again
[Verse 2]
'95, we on top, touring the States
A lotta times we even took the click overseas
Came a long way from the hallway
Sitting in the staircase with Bacardi
Bring the honeycomb speaker outside to bang
While we would share drinks with the other that came
Triple L stayed taking they cash in dice games
Killa Black grew to keep an ice grill, dunn was not playin'
Yammy, The Most Infamous, told me one day
"Put the bogies down, 'fore I pound you out, P"
But it was all love, we was each other's dunns
We held each other down, borrowed each other guns
It's hard to believe that niggas so strong
Could die so easily, forever be gone
I could still feel the web of your palm against mine
'Cause we did our handshake all the time
Why it have to be your time to go, and not mines?
Spilled tears, contemplating to my delf, cryin'
All the laughs we shared, and fights we had
All the nights we would get nice, damn
Plates of food we split in half
I dedicate the rest of my life to all my niggas that's passed
[Chorus]
Who would think any one of us would cease to exist?
Left with just thoughts of the past to reminisce
Sometimes I see a chick walking past with ya kids
Or find an old flick of us on 1-2-5th
All the shit that we been through, it boils to this?
Dunn, I wish we could start it all over again
[Outro]
What's the fuckin' deal?
Motherfuckin' Scarface, nigga

I'll never forget you, all my dead, it's all love, man
Motherfuckin' Yambo, in a minute, we'll be there
Motherfuckin' Yammy, straight up, I can't wait
You was my strength, nigga, I miss y'all
I can't believe you gone, nigga
(You was supposed to be right here)
What the fuck happened?
Ain't nobody else goin' away, man
You ain't takin' nothin' else from me, man
Nobody can't take nothin' else from me, man, that's it
I dare you! Come try, it's over, man
You can't take nothin' else from us, yo
That's my word, I put my life on it
I'll be next, nigga, straight up
I'll stand up for that, 'cause ain't none of my niggas goin'
That's enough, we had enough
It's the Veteran's Memorial right here, man
Straight up, man
We love y'all, one love
