Memorial Lyrics

Lookin out my window hypnotized by the rain

In a trance reminicing bout the soldiers slain

Fighting wars in the brain trying to maintain

Hoping mama won't have to feel the pain

Looking at a closed casket or a picture frame

Even shorties that you banged won't forget your name

Still feel strange how times do change

We doing our thing and in our minds you remain



As I uncap a 5th of Henny for my soldiers that's a memory

Thinking 'bout the fun times we had together 

Blazin' 'till the sunshine

Drinkin' the cheap wine

I know I never find a ? of the same kind

But at the same time, I'm constantly writin' eulogies

For my big homey locs and my loco g's

Since '73 it seems death followed me to my man ?Tyshan Wells?

Rest in Peace



Chorus 

Oh why oh why oh why

It's always the good ones that have to die

Oh why oh why oh why

Bob Marley die, ?Jacob Miller? die

(repeat)



Another day another burial

Got you wondering 'bout the day when he bury you

Tear drops stain the wally's that you rockin'

On the block candles burn guns popin'



I just came from the cemetery where my dog was buried

Drop some buds in the earth to grow in they memory

Thinkin' 'bout the fun times we had as fam

Remembering the beef we got into but never ran

I seen a kid get ate up by his own man one time

Hid behind a car now look and duck and bust a ?

On some Harlem Nights script

But this some real life shit

Heard his scull split when you seen the slug hit

I watched the vultures swarmin'

Prayin' on his garments

They stay robbin' dead men cuz they don't give 'em problems

Heard the good die young be it by God or gun

Paint my mural on the wall sayin' my job was done



I shed tears when I hear news from my peers

That my nigga Shawn Crady was no longer here

Had me mad at my girl ready to take it to the world

Drinkin' liquor 'till I'm damn near 'bout to 'url

Got a jewel from my dog locked up in jail

Told me son is in the essence resting

All is well

While you still here: accomplish your deads

Cuz you never know when it's your time to leave



Repeat chorus several times
