I can't lose this time, I can't lose this time. I've lost friends to cocaine, I've lost friends to meth. I've lost friends to the streets and I've lost friends to death. And I don't wanna turn my back on 'em and it breaks my heart. Cause I don't wanna see 'em suffer but where do I start? See I'm an addict myself and I can't be around that shit, Cause I'll slip quicker than ice from that cocaine drip. It destroyed my life once and I won't do it again. I just wanna see my friends do better, so when will it end? And I'm doin' all that I can but I'm not the second to Christ, I'm not a miracle worker and I can't save every life. But I just hope that they hear this and know that I care, Cause I would write a million songs if it meant givin' them air So look up to the skies when your life is in shambles Cause every time you use it's like the ultimate gamble. And I don't wanna see your name on the frontpage news See the tears from your momma, there was nothing she could do. So please homie just wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up I don't wanna lose nobody else So please homie just wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up I don't wanna lose nobody else What's the definition of it when I lose another brother to the epidemic of it, can we make it go away? How can I tell you to breath when you can't even see what it's doin' to the people you love? How can I be doin' fine when I know you're out your mind and you ain't the same person you was? I just member what it is back when I was in the biz makin' money so that I could stay up. Now I got that legal hustle, You were supposed to be ride or die, Tried to teach you the ins and outs, Tried to make you my righthand guy, You just wanted to get more high, I just wanted to save your life, Now I sit and blame myself and that even fuckin' right, Why do I got to spend my time, Tryin' to get you to realize, You ain't the only one to go though it, You ain't the only one that gon' die We gon' die together only difference is I'll stay alive and I don't wanna live with that so please don't make me say goodbye. So please homie just wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up I don't wanna lose nobody else So please homie just wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up I don't wanna lose nobody else Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, I don't wanna lose nobody else, I can't lose this time, I don't wanna lose nobody else, I can't lose this time, I can't lose this time
