[Intro - DJ AM - talking] (Sk**z) - w/ ad libs at the end (I need you to tell you what's in your backpack, right now) Right now in my backpack is a laptop, four records (uh huh) One of 'em's +Peter Piper+ 12" Three Serato records, two needles, headphones and four condoms (*laughing*) [Verse 1 - Sk**z] They say they never really miss ya 'til you're already gone I keep tryin to tell myself you're better at home Ever since the angels claimed you as one of they own Never told ya some of the things I'm a say in this song When we first met, it was nothin but love Taken aback by the fact you even knew who I was I knew you from the tabloids and read what they said Only to find out, you was a real hip-hop head Hardcore Philly kid, doin pretty good Moved to LA and never went Hollywood And that was just the start Of a friendship built on sneakers and '90's hip-hop Yeah the world was saddened when they lost DJ AM I'm speakin for those that lost Adam Fam we miss you so much Man I wish you know the lives you touched [Hook - Sk**z] We tryin to be strong Adam, tryin to hold the tears And cope with the fact that you no longer here Feels like we fallin, with nothin to grab Pushin through our days, some good, some bad (some bad) Maybe I'm sayin too much But I want you to know that your name will live on through us (through us) I swear to God that's true And everytime we hear (aww yeah), we think about you [Verse 2 - Sk**z] They say everything happens for a reason And now more than ever, we all know that's true But none of us could really know what you was goin through The only one who could walk in your shoes was you Surviving a plane crash, I can't imagine it But God saw fit for you and Trav to live And after that, it was never discussed We all took for granted that you would probably outlive us I'm just bein real kid Losin you? Something that we all still deal with The fans weren't the only ones We lost a friend but two women lost a brother and a son Now you returned to the essence And I just wanna say, to be in your presence, that was a blessing Fam we miss you so much Man I wish you knew the lives you touched [Hook - Sk**z] We tryin to be strong Adam, tryin to hold the tears And cope with the fact that you no longer here Feels like we fallin, with nothin to grab Pushin through our days, some good, some bad (some bad) Maybe I'm sayin too much But I want you to know that your name will live on through us (through us) I swear to God that's true So when you hear a (aww yeah), just know that it's for you [Outro - Sk**z - talking] (*echo*) We miss you man, all of us Like just, just everything about you like I wish people had an opportunity to just know you and Know the kind of person that you were Like how funny you was, how crazy you was Times we had Like remember, remember that time the girl was pulling on your pants leg When you was DJing and you just started playing +Dumb Girl+ Like in the middle of the party Or how you would just play rappers' old demos At like an LA, Hollywood spot, just, just cause you could, ha How you used to play Alc's record in the middle of a party, just to piss him off Or like, just, just your word mixes and how you would mix up certain songs Like I, I can't hear those songs without thinking about you Just the little things man I miss Like when you made me perform +The Nod Factor+ at Rain at like 2 a.m I look at you, you're like "I'm keeping it real" Ha, remember that? Or how we used to just an*lyze rappers' lyrics And just, all the things that sounded suspect You be like, aiyyo, ha Rest in peace, DJ AM, Adam Goldstein (aww yeah ...) (Alright ...)
