I saw ya the day before your death before you took your last breath
How many of my real niggaz are still left?
A lot got killed and filled a wooden box
and went out like ?docks?
I can picture when you went down just like a ?becks?
Here one day and gone the next
We all make mistakes and these are the breaks
but I`m sick and tired of goin to wakes
and seein an end, to my friend
So we kicked it to the L to get some brew and gin
Nobody said nothin everyone was pissed
as we got drunk and reminisced
At your funeral, your head we kissed
Didn`t go to the burial, but you`ll be missed
That`s if you didn`t know, from your true friends and not your foes
Cause love comes and goes
`Love, comes and goes` (4X)
Now my man, he never had no problems
but he got killed, when niggaz tried to rob him
Because they knew when they did it, they couldn`t get away with it
So they killed him, took the dough and split it
Thinkin about the money, and not his four kids
A couple got caught, and now they`re doin bids
Loot is worth more than a life, cause niggaz livin trife
My man had four kids, and a wife
Now the kids don`t have a father and the wife don`t have a husband
because when, you did what you did
the future of his kids may fall down...
... cause he ain`t around
I went to his funeral, thinkin maybe soon it will be me
cause Boston got a lot of jealousy
A lot of people just can`t take it when another brother makes it
When he makes it, that`s when they wanna take it
But there`s one thing I know...
... love comes and goes
`Love, comes and goes` (4X)
The most I remember of you, is in the pictures
You were my pops and I won`t forget ya
I wish you coulda been there, to see me grow up
Come up like throw up, and blow up, as an entertainer
I think you woulda been proud
to see me at a show, and move the crowd
Your best friend, shot you over five dollars, that ain`t right
The money mattered, and not the life
I wonder what you woulda told me, to get a girl and lay her
cause my moms told me you were a player
They tell me I`m your spittin image, from the line of scrimmage
but you was wild unlike my mother I`m timid
God works in different ways and it shows
And everybody knows love comes and goes
