Blizzard - Letter To Phife lyrics

[Intro] Yo R.I.P Phife It seems the heavens acquired another legend Another pioneer that God can add to his collection And even though I only discovered him in my 20's I was captured by the positive message you were presenting I picture you and Dilla chopping samples in the session In the booth by the pearly gates, vibes never ending If you hear this, you will be remembered And I wanted to thank you because your music helped me to beat depression Hope you're with Guru and Biggie and Pac Nicknamed the funky guy [?] too sweet on a track Always came with the fire and the vibes were relaxed Midnight Marauders plays when my inspiration is flat And if we're talking cla**ic albums, that has to be mentioned Low End Theory has to be at the high end of the spectrum You taught me music can be real, that's a valuable lesson Wish that I was fortunate enough to see you in the flesh You were on point Phife, all the time yo Appeal to people in several different time zones You always spat the truth, always had a nice flow Always sounded effortless, that's the sh** I like yo Always preaching beats, rhymes and life There was no MC like the Phife And there was no team like The Tribe Stood by Cube but he was never stealing your shine Bet you and Dilla [?] the NPC all the time This is just a quick letter, just a speech to the guy The teacher of the youth, forever feeding their minds You never half stepped, you was not a half stepper The day I heard you'd pa**ed, I bought a can of Dr. Pepper I was vibing to your music at the call centre 'Cause when your songs are on, it's never business over pleasure Ask [?], your talent you'd need leverage to sever R.I.P the Phife footer, may your music be remembered [Outro] Yeah R.I.P the Phife footer Funky diabetic Sad I only just got into your music when I found out you'd pa**ed man Long live The Tribe I'm out
