[Intro: Bumpy Knuckles] Last time I saw HeadQCourterz was at a video shoot And... I was pullin off to leave and he said head up eyes and ears open ya nah mean And then he said word is bond, yo that was like his signature thing ya nah mean And, everytime he said it you know he always make sure he said he fightin for life You ask him how he doin he fightin for life He was a signature dude who was original and he always had his own style He never changed for nobody you know what I mean Ummm, I respected him for that you know what I mean Everybody call me a real n***a, you know what I'm sayin There's more real n***as than me, he definitely was a real n***a I miss him, and I love him [Verse One: Bumpy Knuckles] When I die, I want people in the funeral to kiss my face and feel me Take a whiff of this last breath for real b Every word about me could never be good 'Cause I fight for survival, I grew up in the hood Made the subway train my bedroom, but not for long For just a minute it takes me, to get put on All I know is righteousness I walk in the path And light this spliff and the smoke is my trail I Inhale 'cause to choke is to fail I'm too smart to be locked down broken in jail That's where they want me, in the basement, stuck in a cell Eatin jacked mac, toilet seat cold as hell I got a african necklace that my sister bought me from the motherland So I rock it in j**el the brother man Got me screamin b it's not platinum, it's made of all wood But the memories devalue weight, it's all good I'm a hip hop conisuer, street promotion Got love for the realest rappers, beat devotion And I walk now through the heavens, arm and arm Screamin heads up eyes and ears open, word is bond!

[DJ Premier Scratchin] My-My-My-My n***a HeadQCourterz-"Snoop Dogg" HeadQCourterz rest in peace!-"Bumpy Knuckles" [Verse Three: Bumpy Knuckles] To my n***as in the streets don't ever give up, we still in a rut B stop fillin my cup, I left alot to think about now, could never be a fool Went from homeless in a couple of years, to back to school 'Cause I hustled my a** off, save up every dollar Sold hoodies in the hood, my act's hard to follow Holla! If you see me on cloud nine my cup rave Rewritin the tough days I turn six shots to six strays, they go into a wall That leave me there to kick it with y'all I'm a soldier that will never fall, I'm free from hell No more felony stripes, three from jail Don't cry shed no tears, I'm still here To oversee all my dogs so be clear I'm a hip hop conisuer, street promotion Got love for the realest rappers, beat devotion And I walk through heaven, arm and arm Screamin heads up eyes and ears open, word is bond! [Outro: Vocals from HeadQCourterz] I got Panch and them on the third! I got Smile! Mel! All my n***as man! You already f**in know! WORD IS BOND SON!
