Verse One:

Up early in the morning, dressed in black
Don´t ask why? ´Cause I´m down in a suit and tie
They killed a homie that I went to school with(Damn!)

I tell ya life ain´t shit to fool with
I still hear the screams of his mother
While my nigga laid dead in the gutter(Shit!)
And it´s getting to my temple
Why is that the only time black folks get to ride in a limo?
It makes me so mad I want to get my sawed-in
And have some bodies hauled in
But no, I pay my respects and I´m through(whaddup Cube?)
Hug my crew, and maybe shed a tear or two
And I wanna get blitz
Grab my 40 ounce and then I reminisce
About a brother who had to be the one and only
So I dedicate this to my dead homiez...

Verse Two:

Another homie got murdered on a shakedown{three gun shots}
And his mother is at the funeral, havin´ a nervous breakdown
Two shots hit him in the face when they blasted{two gun shots}
A framed picture and a closed casket
A single file line about 50 cars long
All drivin´ slow with they lights on
He got a lot of flowers and a big wreath
What good is that when you´re six feet deep?
I look at that shit and gotta think to myself
And thank God for my health
´Cause nobody really ever know
When it´s gonna be they family on the front row
So I take everything slow, go with the flow
And shut my motherfuckin´ mouth if I don´t know(Word!)

´Cause that´s what Pops told me
But I wish he could have said it...to my dead homiez

Verse Three:

I remember we painted our names on the wall for fun
Now it´s "Rest in Peace" after every one
Except me, but I ain´t the one to front
Seems like I´m viewin´ a body after every month
Plus, I knew him when he was yea big
Pour beer on the curb before I take a swig
But somethin´ ain´t right
When it´s a tragedy, that´s the only time that the family´s tight
Lovin´ each other in a caring mood
There´s lots of people and lots of food

They say "Be Strong" and you´re tryin´
But how strong can you be when you see your Pops cryin´?
So that´s why Ice Cube´s dressed up
Because the city is so fuckin´ messed up
And everybody is so phony
Take a little time...to think about your dead homiez.
