VETERAN'S MEMORIAL

Memories, played back like film I flash back, we was lil niggas livin most real 1989 is when we first met We first clicked over convo, getting twisted In Dunn Greir and Earth's crib, cutting out of school Watchin cable, it seem like the other day Thru 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 yall played the rock every chance yall got As I sat back and just watched, hey what can I say The same back then as I am today I can recall me, Jamel and Jamal In the room drinkin straight vodka wit they moms When I wasn't born wit the big Nefertiti charm Bang wit the light blue camouflage suit God, me and Hav doin it hard, tryin to get on We sampled songs on the box wit record and pause Killer B didn't even get his first fire on And I was still holdin one shot Derengers Who would think anyone of us would cease to exist Left with just thoughts of the past to reminisce Sometimes I see a chick walkin past wit ya kids Or find an old flick of us at 1-2 fifth All the shit that we been thru, it boils to this Dunn I wish we could start it all over again '95, we on top, tourin the states A lot of times, even took the click overseas Came a long way from the hallway Sittin in the staircase wit Barcardi Bring the honeycone speaker outside to bang While we would share drinks wit the others that came Triple L stayed talkin they cash in dice games Killa Black grew to keep an ice grill, Dunn was not playin Yammi, the most infamous, told me one day “Put the bowies down fore I pound you out P” But it was all love, we was each others Dunns We held each down, borrowed each others guns It's hard to believe that nigga so strong Could die so easily, forever be gone I could still feel the web of ya palm againist mine Cause we did our handshake all the time Why it to yall time to go and not mine? Spilled tears contemplatin 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 Who would think anyone of us would cease to exist Left with just thoughts of the past to reminisce Sometimes I see a chick walkin past wit ya kids Or find an old flick of us at 1-2 fifth All the shit that we been thru, it boils to this Dunn I wish we could start it all over again My fuckin dead, muthafuckin Scarface nigga, Killa Beam, Fugi (no more man, I can't take no more) Duey, Coy, Black Ed, what the fuck, know what I'm sayin Ill Will, Vernon, Harry, what the fuck yo I can't take it no more, Frankie, Spank what up man?
