9th Wonder - Funeral For A k**er lyrics

[Hook] And who cries when a k**er dies Is it justified when tears fill your eyes The funeral for a k**er, the d**h of a real n***a And who cries when a k**er dies Is it justified when tears fill your eyes The funeral for a k**er, down to ride till he dies With his finger on the trigger [Verse 1] Went to the casket, and I looked in Same type of box that our enemies got put in And he the motherf**er put em there Came to say goodbye to my brother, but he wasn't there Staring at his mother in the front row Black dress, hair the same color as the gun smoke Homies in the back like "look at what they done, loc" Can't even talk without feeling like I'm gonna choke We're all mad than the mother f**er Side chick crying, doing bad than the motherf**er Wife just sitting there, she ain't shed a tear Cause he put her through so much hell when he was here And all I'm hearing is revenge and regret One useless emotion and the other leads to d**h But you ain't see enough of that yet Try to tell em but you can't talk sense to the deaf They like f** you cuz, you ain't even from the set n***a f** you too said it under my breath Cause we don't need no more drama Feeling guilty cause I still get to hug my Momma [Hook] [Verse 2] He loved his loved ones and he loved guns But disrespect the fam that's when the slugs comes He caught a couple bodies but they deserve it though He was a righteous dude as far as murders go And he could switch quick between day and night You crossed the line and do what had to pay the price And we was friends just the ninth grade True gangsta did everything the right way So why I feel so wrong With the homeboy gone days feel so long That's why we cry when the k**er dies Tattoo tears so we could see the world with clearer eyes [Hook] [Verse 3] And this is for the realest dude I've ever known I'm never writing you another song It's been a while since you've been gone Mother and your brother, everybody barely holding on I ain't gonna say that you was never wrong If you was here, then your girls would have a better home Mural on the block, your name set in stone You still living cause you died as a legend, homes [Hook]
