Verse 1
Sometimes I sit and think of how it used to be
Reminiscing 'bout when you was introduced to me
We was acting ?? when you and cap came through
It was him you me and ?? and blazin' with cue
When we performed at the intrepid yo that sh** was fly
Camouflage suits backstage blowin' a lot
"pa** me the liquor"
I never got to tell you my n***a
I was proud when you blew up and made your figures
Who ever said that thugs don't cry?
I never knew my n***a big, or never been out on the block
I know you're hearin' me tell it's like a slug through your bones
That's how I felt on the morning I heared Frank was gone
You know how me and 'sun clicked up that's why our sh** was f**ed up
When that sh** jumped off, but we ain't loose no love
I paid my respects like I should and it hurts
At both ceremonies in the street and at the church
Hook
"n***as come back
Any kind of fool could see
There was something, everything about you word up
But n***as come back (n***as come back), it wasn't your time to leave, son (it's never their time)
You was raw, (word up) the streets ain't the same without you"
Verse 2
Who would've thought we'd ever meet
Soldiers from two different streets
n***as see eye to eye, but coast to coast there's beef
On the phone when we spoke we laughed and joked
Invited wessun to the home and introduced to the folks
Smoked 'till we blacked out more work no play
Ate breakfast when we woke and hit the studio all day
Got deep show decided a n***a never forgot
I love you 'Pac thug blood pumpin our heart
As soon as you touched down, at clinton I got the kite it was official
n***as screamin' thug life throwin' up their pistols
Ready to start a riot just off G.P
Had to pack you up and put you in I.C.P
Just last week i'd seen juiced it teared my cheek
And d**h sh** its funny how fast time creeps
You touched the streets, n***as see the points you proved
Dedication, with an outlaw tattoo
Hook
Verse 3
You changed the game
Latin, black, white people screamin' your name
Peepin' the slang
Showed love to my peeps when you came
To the video for spanish harlem
You came with no problem
And you made it to stardom
Real soldiers never forgot 'em
I remember that when big twang came through in a white benz
Sittin on some tight rims when you'se gettin right then
We went to his vid' and showed love in return
We threw his burn big pun another friendship was earned
Kicked it at the club poured each other drinks spendin' dough
I was with my soldiers you was deep with your thugs
It was bugged when I heared they murdered Big-L in cold blood
Right before his sh** was about to blow up
Still got rambo, troubled world, mikey and field
Indian boy, freky tide you and Big-L
My n***a from uptown where I first met Ken
Take a moment of silence for all of our fans
Hook 2
Memory megatron, big-L,
Big, Pac, scott-la-rock, easy-E, trouble-T-Roy
Grandma, Grandfa, cousins
