(feat. Baron)
Lost a dear friend today
Passed in his house
Felt bad, died alone he had no spouse
Took him for granted thought tomorrow I would see him
If I live to his age, I wanna be just like him
Cuz he was an African King
Super knock on his door couldnt wake him
For some reason, God chose to take him
Now I dont have a chance to get closer
God, never told me that he had cancer
Tears, dropped from my eyes lost composure
Left, flowers at the door for
(?)
He was a cheerful old man
Who, always had a smile on his face
And, I could never understand
How every morning he could water the trees
He said inhale, exhale, you gotta give back
He made me so proud to be black
Educated, well in the 70's
Good person, out of tuned heavily
Told him about the street wars that Im a vet
He'd laugh, told me you havent even lived yet
Im a Yankee fan, he loved the Mets
Who would win the super bowl we would bet
See, in my family most the males are dead
It was cool to have a man who knew about life
He told me I had a good woman
And dont be a fool I better make her my wife
Although today is my birthday
(?) gift, yes I cried
90 degrees is the temperature
The dirt outside, is very dry cause
[Hook:]
You did not water the trees that's how we realized somethings wrong
I shoulda reached out but now its too late I took way too long
Im proud to have the chance to know you cause your presence was strong
You might not be famous but everybody deserves a song [x2]
