Ice T - Dear Homie Lyrics
[hen-gee]Dear homie, whats the hap, since your up in the sky?With God by your sideHomie whats it like?I know your bein treated rightNo more worriesPlus youre bein heard gI guess you know niggaz is still trippinI dont know why, they see a future in itWere headed for self-destructionCant functionOnly thing I can do is prayAnd thank god, for another dayYes homie, its rough down here. I gotta watch my backCos its hard being blackIf it aint the otherIts my own colourTryin to work meTryin to hurt meAint no l-o-v-ePlease tell me why, dear homie[ice-t]Dear homie, gang-bangin aint jokeAnd Im lookin over ya locAlways knew there was fools out to get meI didnt even hear the gunshots till after the slugs hit meI grabbed for my chest and my neck, hopinWhen my head hit the ground my skull busted openYou used to ask for my adviceWell dear homie, dyin aint nothin niceAnd the place Im at is overpackedWith young blacks who crash crack and gatsI can only prayYou dont come this wayYou gotta stay alive, you got a kid gI feel ya partner but I worry alotBust shotsI know youre tryin to comfort meBut I dont want no company, homie[hen-gee]Dear homie, even though youre goneI still fell your presenceSometimes I can sleepCos I just cant seeReality like it really should be seenI still reminisce on how we used to kick itStrollin the yard, just hangin out togetherDown for whatever, wheneverAnd now Im hopin, youre seeing a true friend in meWe where meant to be[ice-t]Dear homie, you used to call me o.g.Now ya really gotta look up to meCos the place Im at, is way high in the skyI didnt want to dieBut the life I lived was just to recklessToo many bad marks on gods checklistAnd many many brothers will go outJust tryin to get that hard-core street cloutBut a street reps final test, is when youre lying in a coffinWith youre hands folded on your chest.Then ya hear the girls cryThen ya hear the brothers lieTalkin about how down you wasThen the next week the back on the street, they cold forgot ya cuz.Dont wanna see ya on your back,So for me stay sucka free, cos you dont need that, homie.Dear homie...Dear homie...Ya know I miss ya homie...
