[NoCap] Yeah, didn´t write this song, but I´m recordin´ with this lead on me Know it sound strange, but I´ma die for all my dead homies
Nobody really know how he feels I always thought that you would be here Why do I always question God, but I never pray? I think about you, I end up cryin´ on my best days Tryna convince me to get better, naw, naw, naw, naw I´d be lyin´ if I didn´t say I really miss my dawgs It´s so much of pain in us, always feel like I´m givin´ up It ain´t the same no more, death brought me anger I´m followed by angels and I got some dyin´ love Soon as I got rich, soon as I got famous
[NoCap] Why did you leave? If you was here, how would it be?
Oh, woah I´m protected by these ghetto angels Oh, woah I´m protected by the hood gangstas
[Lil Durk] When the streets don´t show you love, that feelin´ a bitch, ain´t it? When a nigga die, the world make fun, that feelin´ sick, ain´t it? I´m from Chicago where they turn your death date to an occasion You hear the same shit when a nigga die they say it´s under investigation You´ll find the killer who killed my cousin, find the killer who killed Kenneka Jenkins That´s why they slide without thinkin´, nobody safe when I´m breathin´ (Oh)
I´m the voice of the streets, I ain´t tryna be the big homie Other cities got structure, Chicago ain´t got big homies Havin´ your gun on you everyday, that shit don´t mean shit, don´t it? It´s who got the ups first, my cousin died with a stick on him I don´t see no lies in here, I feel like cryin´ in here He spent his life on securities, he got life, he cryin´ for real He say I´ll give you this pain through They lost they souls to the streets, but they my ghetto angels NoCap, the streets wanna hear me on this remix, they wanna hear my pain too I seen Amir´s body in Miami, I text, "I hope this ain´t you"
I wanna call and say...
[NoCap & Brandon Casey] Why did you leave? If you was here, how would it be? Oh, woah I´m protected by these ghetto angels (By these angels, yeah) Oh, woah I´m protected by the hood gangstas (Yeah, all my gangstas)
[Brandon Casey] I thank God that I´m still here I´m faced with all the bull-ish Maybe lessons from the pulpit Are the blessings from the highest Yeah, you just don´t know, no
You should never have to see your homie drop, that´s a lot When you walkin´ for this life, who knows when it stops Oh, no No, oh
[Brian Casey] Gotta give it straight, true with no chase I never question God, I know it´s a better place I know it´s a marathon, not just a race Can´t wait to see the looks on all my homies´ faces Can´t wait until the day that we embrace (Oh) (Ooh, woah) Can´t wait until the day that we embrace (Ooh, oh)
[NoCap & Brandon Casey] Yeah, why did you leave? If you was here, how would it be? Oh, woah I´m protected by these ghetto angels Oh, woah I´m protected by the hood gangstas (All my gangstas) (Yeah, yeah) (Oh, woah)
