I wasn't even six, I barely remember That night they shot my uncle down It felt as cold December And he wasn't even my uncle in a literal sense But blood couldn't make him closer Tight spaces condense He was a man getting money, and my Pop was his homie They ride or die for each other, and niggas did him like he Tony Man that nigga a sucka, a hatin muthafucka He took Dirt away from us, now he going 6 feet under See the snakes envy you, but they play as ya dawg But when the going gets tough, they start showing their cards See everybody in the hood really ain't hard And you don't gotta play the block for niggas to see that you a fraud You gotta stay real and you gotta stay true And if you love ya self then f*ck who don't love you I ain't have to run the streets my Mom and Pop did that They learned from the concrete, and 3 roses grew from that They consider us some blessings, and we cherish every second I know Dirt smiling down like Lit you learned ya lesson You can play in the streets but that shit don't last forever And at some point you gotta know, you gotta make it better Know the patches of ya lane Like a polo sweater Ya best muscle is ya brain Gotta use that clever We on the block, Kuz that's what we know We don't have that choice We tell the world about our problems But it's like we don't have that voice But it's ways to make it out and we can do it through the children If it's too late for you, you can do it through the children But it's ways to make it out and we can do it through our children If it's too late for you, you can do it through the children Light a candle in the air For the ones that you lost Celebrate. Make a cheer Do it From the heart Light a candle in the air For the ones that you lost Celebrate. Make a cheer Do it From the heart I never met my cousin, my cousin Rashida But she lives through my name, sometimes I wish I could meet her She was like my Mom sister Them together was insane People thought that they were twins They could both dance and sing Maybe that's the reason for talent I crafted but they handed Me the tools to fly through school And rap around you fools She reason that my parents met for that, I'm just grateful She saved their life and made mine But couldn't make it to my cradle I don't know if the nigga was jealous Or couldn't handle his breakfast She wasn't a plate full but then he got to driving reckless And it's crazy that he got to survive Man that shit took my cousin, you can't apologize And even if he got what he had coming It's not gonna bring my cousin back And that's some shit my fam couldn't stomach And I know she smiling down, like Lee you learned ya lessons And I still got ya back, and Ima rock with you from heaven Light a candle in the air For the ones that you lost Celebrate. Make a cheer Do it From the heart Light a candle in the air For the ones that you lost Celebrate. Make a cheer Do it From the heart
