Lyrics : Memorial Day
(HeatMakerz, Crack Music)
[Joell Ortiz]
We all standing outside in that all black
Some niggas dressed the best they could [?]
I don't get along with anybody here, but out of respect
I'ma fall back, so today I ain't on that (Nah)
I was just gonna sign a book and dip
But you my man so I'mma give you this last look and shit
Now your mother coming my way
For her I'mma act okay, but son I don't know what to say
My mouth ain't moving nothing, it's wild
I just paused, she gave me this long hug and the smiled
And said, "I'm okay." but she ain't mean that
I could see she torn apart and that just hit me in my heart
They finna start a eulogy, yeah, that part (Oh)
I just flashed back to that park in Brooklyn where we slap boxed
Then took her to the court and slapped back boards
Then pushed it to the street, two hand touch, we play from that car to that car (Remember?)
We go that far back, I'm talking little
Just happy why you was here, I always told you that you official
This shit foul, man, blow the whistle
Hang my man Jersey in the raft 'cause we gon' miss you
Wet tissue as your fam lift you
Walk you out the church to the hearse, give you that last lift, too
That place they gon' forever sit you
Below the ground, I hold it down and never forget you
[KXNG Crooked & Joell Ortiz]
Pledge allegiance to the flag in the du-rags
None of us came up good, so we do bad
Victims of circumstance, fool stance
Cash advances from welfare, bullshit, health care
We all we got
Look around this house of warship lifted this war shit, we all we got
We all we got
Look around this house of warship, I mean come on kids, we all we got
[KXNG Crooked]
Six pallbearers wearing dickey suits
Gangsters from different sides, it's like a city truth
We was all just kids eating for being fruits
Some of us brashed off but didn't forget our roots (Never)
Ain't a family in here that you don't belong to
A new reason to put on that old suit down
Forest Lawn funeral home, two to your dome
Got yo sis singing a beautiful song, type of shit for you to go home, too
Damn, tears just racing now
Seen a couple frauds taking pictures for the 'Gram
This ain't the place to be chasin' clout
Only f*ck with you when you papered out
But when you was down, ain't never came around
But we was different, homie, that's a true blessing
I'm lookin' around this church learning a few lessons
To the homies who made excuses and didn't calm
Uh huh, your absence left a huge presence
Real niggas do real things
Nah, we graduated now, so we real kings
I love you my brother, you up in Heaven
In a Long Beach hoodie, some Chuck Taylors, and some ill wings
Pledge allegiance to the flag in the du-rags
None of us came up good, so we do bad
Victims of circumstance, foul stance
Cash advances from welfare, bullshit, healthcare
We all we got
Look around this house of warship lifted this war shit, we all we got
We all we got
Look around this house of warship, I mean come on kids, we all we got
[KXNG Crooked]
Time is out most precious commodity, you know?
And we don't know how much time we have on this Earth, so
While we here, I'mma tell all my niggas I love you
And rest in peace to the fallen
I let this Hennessy bottle cry on the curb for you
We all we got
Yeah
We all we got
