Young M.A - Dear Bro lyrics

[Intro] This sh** right here man It's real personal It comes from the heart I miss you bro I love you bro [Hook: Chantal Kreviazuk] How I'm feeling, it doesn't matter Cause you know I'm okay Instead, I ask myself, "Why do you worry?" When you know, you know I'm the same I know, I know you don't love me, baby They're trying to take you away from me Only over my dead body... [Verse 1] Dear bro, how's it going all the way up there in heaven? How's the afterlife? I know you live in paradise But down here, everything is f**ed up Man the world is so corrupt you gotta have a gun or have a knife And mommy going through it She ain't have a 9 to 5 since you died She just stopped like a traffic light Yeah it's been five years but she still cry tears She depressed and her anxiety ain't acting right And as for me? sh**, I been hurting I ain't even gon' lie to you I been drinking, getting high, getting wasted, overthinking I been praying but the pain is so strong cause every night man I cry for you I'm still throwing up that five for you The other day I was thinking ‘bout that time when you called me out the blue And you told me spit a rhyme for you Now every day I grind for you And Quinn, yo she really getting bigger Looking like the bigger sister sh** she put me in the mind of you Can't believe you had three kids n***a But your daughter is your twin I swear to god she just a lighter you Damn we really miss you here Life s**s and there's nothing that you missing here Since you left, everything is just different here Tell god that he really need to fix it here But anyway I really hope this letter reaches you Wish heaven had a phone so I could speak to you Sometimes I wish that I could be with you But it's something here in life that I need to do [Hook: Chantal Kreviazuk] I know, I know you don't love me, baby They're trying to take you away from me Only over my dead body... [Verse 2] Dear bro, I been grinding I don't work a 9 to 5, to be honest I don't think that is the life for me You know this rap sh** was always my priority Was always just a part of me, I swear it's just right for me I found a girl that I really got a bond with Beautiful, plus loyal, she aight for me And Redlyfe, that's the squad Them my n***as, them my brothers Different mothers and they still would take a life for me Saw your pops the other week, saw [?] Grandma and Earl Key on the keef Ramell he in college, Keyon playing ball Lil n***a getting tall, same height as me September 26th, a day I never could forget Another week, it'll make five years Damn, it's like where the f** the time went? Since you left it's like where the f** my mind went? The thought of it just make me want to cry again I swear bro I gotta win For you, mom, me, and Quinn Nah bro, I won't quit Cause if I lose I'ma try again Lately I been neglecting the family And I don't know why, I gotta spend more time with them P.S. I hope this letter reaches you Wish heaven had a phone so I could speak to you Sometimes I wish that I could be with you But it's something here in life that I need to do [Hook: Chantal Kreviazuk] I know, I know you don't love me, baby They're trying to take you away from me Only over my dead body...
