Jay Rock - EMJ lyrics

[Intro: Tech N9ne] The sadness gets deeper, and now my body's growing weaker To EMJ this is dedicated; through this, you'll never belated, bro [Verse 1: Tech N9ne] I told him, I ain't know you rap n***a, you cold blooded The way he busted his flow on stage wasn't slow was it My n***a was flippin', he grabbed the mic and was rippin' Until some idiots was trippin' and then I heard bullets whistling Then I sang 'em, I just want to celebrate, he laughed Cause said he's "writing a song called Reno 911 straight on they a**" Far as words go, it's crazy them were the last I heard EMJ on this emotional musical journey [Hook: Krizz Kaliko] Come ride with me, it's so sad to see, still ride with me So join me, let me share with this world as I live out the dreams We won't be gone for long, I promise you won't be alone If you lose me, I'm writing the words of this song My man Michael Jones, on this emotional musical journey (Yo, this is OG Muggs, wanna shout out to my man EMJ God took you away, it was too soon man You're up there with the angles looking down And watching our world right now brother We love you, we miss you, we'll never forget you EMJ Rest in peace brother) [Verse 2: Irv Da Phenom] That was my n***a In the bunk right across from mine Cracking them jokes like all the time Hoppin' on stage with him every night And why n***as Would ever wanna take somebody's life Who was living it like a shining light Man all the homie ever did was smile I still don't understand it, don't think I ever will Why I couldn't have been the b**h n***a That god had let get k**ed Instead he took EMJ away, it's safe to say I'll see your face again someday, at pearly gates But I hold you in my heart until [Verse 3: Kutt Calhoun] At times I'm like Yo EMJ, where you been? I know you lookin' down on me like "Here I am, Kutty! And I ain't wanting for nothin' homie No, mourning do nothin' for me Your love is enough in store in its glory Or what, so pour me a drink We can cheer and toast, giving thanks to why You didn't lose a partner, you gained a gangsta for life In your heart I exist, but through music I'm able to live I see the way you floss me all on your wrist And that's what's up, man" [Hook] (On my highest day my n***a, you was there Now I'm on my lowest day, cause you're not here I miss you my n***a, love you EMJ) [Verse 4: Bernz] I seen a cruel b**h, met her in Reno Nevada She'll have you living your dreams and take 'em all with no problem In dark alley ways, where devils wait for the shootout At someone who was special, I told my family about him I saw his first tour, he told me Tech was his hero And watched him from the crowd, to then go rock the same theaters Step out of bounds and rounds can fly, behind casinos On the night I never gambled and still lost it all in Reno [Verse 5: Wrekonize] If I only had 8 bars, to come and deliver to you in the graveyard I'd say god is sh**ty for even releasing you behind the 8-ball The pain's hard, I know you got kiddies to carry your name on But I'm praying for 'em, so they don't end up just singing the same song I'm hearing it in my sleep, I'm hearing it in the head There's whispers on the beat, screaming EMJ where you been I promise you everyone out here shed tears, until he remembers High powered mayhem, EMJ, Mayday's 7th member [Verse 6: Stevie Stone] Remember like it was yesterday, show up in Reno Off of the bus and to off a Bourbon then we hit the Casino And then we, we did the show an we was only It was all that crying and you and Rock was on that homie Never should have left you lonely, you took six and survived it Talked to you a couple days ago, still riding No one never thought there was complications rising A blood clot inside him, EMJ died I'm like (EMJ, it's Cross-Eyed Joe man, we all f**ing miss you bro) (EMJ, what can I say man, rest in paradise Rest in paradise pimpin, we love you) [Verse 7: Jay Rock] Michael Jones, I miss you my n***a EMJ, still tryna cope with this Still can't believe that you gone and I know I gots to be strong Revenge is mine said the lord, so we gotta let him take control But lord knows that I wanna grab the gat co*k back and land a blow and watch heads roll You was a talented man, I watched you gravitate fans Shouted out where you been, people was all in a trance Then we step on stage, you'd say "You k**in 'em, Rock" Then I'd say "You k**in 'em, MJ," then you say "Let's put on for Watts" You strong as an ox, in the bed just laying with shots Laughing and jokin', meanwhile I'm going through emotions Then you tell me Jay Rock, you gotta keep goin' on daddio Your album about to drop, plus you can't be slacking bro Yeah fo' sho' my n***a, I know this a minor set back But you told me keep k**in' 'em, you gon' be alright I'mma be back, no time bet that, then I got that phone call It was bad news at its best and it hurt me That I lost my friend on this emotional musical journey [Verse 8: Magnum PI] Hold up roll up a Swisher, light up and paint a picture Only if painted different, I would have been right there with you So instead of cryin', I rejoice and pour out some liquor Henny straight or mix it with lemonade, feel like I should be ashamed I had to look you mama dead in the face She told me everything was gon' be okay You told me if anything you should be on your way home any day Soon as we all relaxin' the phone rang, heard her sayin' I'm goin' crazy, it's crazy, I'm thinkin' maybe just maybe I'm misunderstandin' what your lady was sayin' Naw-naw, you can't be serious, stop your talkin' delirious Got my mom on the phone, you already know where his spirit went So I drink that Hen 'til there no more left, right that wrong no it don't go left Write this song try not stress, gotta be strong yet fight to d**h As far as visions go that's that was last way that I saw EMJ on this emotional musical journey [Hook]
