[Verse 1]
|
Maybe you died 'cause everybody ask me where you at
|
I try to channel you in hopes that I could steer you back
|
But it's like every intersection we just missed each other
|
You got your fans waiting tell me you ain't 6 feet under
|
And tell me that you're coming back that you just took a break
|
Maybe I blamed you for everything that was my mistake
|
In hindsight I loved your rawness and I loved your edge
|
'Cause it was you who talked me down from jumping off the ledge
|
Your earrings bamboo, your long nails too
|
Your BMW every time you came through
|
You was the braveheart
|
You stole wayne heart
|
You never switched it up
|
You played the same part
|
But I needed to grow
|
And I needed to know
|
That there were something inside of me that I need to show
|
|
So I just deaded you
|
Left you in all black
|
But dear old Nicki
|
Please call back
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You told me you'd come when I needed you
|
And you said it so sweetly I believed you
|
But I'm standing here calling I can't see you
|
But I am holding you, holding you, holding you to that
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
Yo, did I chase the glitz and glamour
|
Money, fame and power
|
'Cause if so that will forever go down my lamest hour
|
I should've kept you with me getting at them nameless cowards
|
There was no match for you, couldn't defeat your powers
|
I had to make them changes, I hope you understood
|
You see for every bad, I did a ton of good
|
But you was underground, and I was mainstream
|
I live the life now, that we would daydream
|
My only wish is you come enjoy it with me
|
Get on them conference calls, go meet the lawyers with me
|
The money came, yeah, tripled and quadrupled it
|
But I still miss us when we was just on some stupid shit
|
And it's still fuck the media
|
They ridiculed you, never believed in you
|
|
They just deaded you
|
Left you in all black
|
But dear old Nicki
|
Please call back
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You told me you'd come when I needed you
|
And you said it so sweetly I believed you
|
But I'm standing here calling I can't see you
|
But I am holding you, holding you, holding you to that
|
|
And yes I'm holding you, holding you, holding you
|
Oh, yes I'm holding you, holding you, holding you
|
And yes I'm holding you, holding you, holding you
|
To that
|
|
And yes I'm holding you, holding you, holding you
|
Oh, yes I'm holding you, holding you, holding you
|
And yes I'm holding you, holding you, holding you
|
To that
|
