(Verse)
|
Same name I come from you
|
You my nigga told me I can do it all
|
Told me I would be that nigga growing up back and forth
|
Love was tough but fuck it though
|
Wasn't hardly speaking but you kept a nigga comfortable
|
Kept some food up in the fridge kept the nikes on my feet
|
All you taught was honesty but somehow we just learned to see
|
Somehow we just learned the street
|
We both born in June ,Gemini
|
Hurt your temper love you nigga let's get high
|
True love will never die
|
|
(Hook)
|
When I was up,When I was down,you kept me high
|
Above the clouds ,you my nigga
|
Protecting me from anything strange
|
Always kept me right up under your wing
|
You my nigga, the only guy
|
That I looked up too
|
That kept me strong
|
Never did wrong when it came down to me
|
The only man that kept me right on my feet
|
You my nigga
|
|
(Verse)
|
You put that ball inside my crib NBA was all you saw
|
But I was into other shit ain't get my all out on that court
|
Scholarships they came and went I ain't felt this famous since
|
I bounce back spit fire shit I got these haters sick
|
Your surgery just fucked me up you don't even move the same
|
I'm motivated just by seeing you talk your shit right through the pain
|
All my life you hussled hard no degree only street
|
Knowledge and you showed me shit I never seen
|
I feel your heart up through every beat
|
|
(Hook)
|
When I was up,When I was down,you kept me high
|
Above the clouds ,you my nigga
|
Protecting me from anything strange
|
Always kept me right up under your wing
|
You my nigga, the only guy
|
That I looked up too
|
That kept me strong
|
Never did wrong when it came down to me
|
The only man that kept me right on my feet
|
You my nigga
|
|
(Verse)
|
Born in Corona, he told me stories of soldiers
|
All players and gangsters ,pimp players with paper
|
The second to youngest brother
|
His older brothers was hussling too
|
Dollars bags to that boy
|
With custies getting their mustard up
|
So they can spread easy
|
Mama working 3 jobs,pop was running numbers
|
Vanish for a couple summers
|
Rest in peace to uncle E
|
Rest in peace to uncle Steve
|
Rest in peace to uncle Frank
|
Rest in peace to aunt B
|
I know that's where your heart be
|
|
(Hook)
|
When I was up,When I was down,you kept me high
|
Above the clouds ,you my nigga
|
Protecting me from anything strange
|
Always kept me right up under your wing
|
You my nigga, the only guy
|
That I looked up too
|
That kept me strong
|
Never did wrong when it came down to me
|
The only man that kept me right on my feet
|
You my nigga
|
|
