To my man g.o.v., I remember how you used to be
You were the illest man alive now Im reading your eulogy
Eyes so serious, you told me hold my head
Pursue this rap shit and go forward never backwards
While you gripped tecs tight, and ran niggaz out of town
I ripped up mics, showin wack niggaz how to sound
Still your essence, was callin
By two gunshots, at close range, your frame had fallen
Now like a angel youve risen
And you will stay in my heart, and yo I wish you were still livin
Word... this is in memory of

Zachary bro, cousin paula
Harry o-fives rest in peace -- biggie smalls
Yeah, sam-o, 183rd
Joshua faust rest in peace
Brian brown yall, yeah

[guru]
To my man brian b, I remember how you used to be
You were the flyest in the club with three bitches doin rub-a-dub
You was the pimp of all panderers
Gq, johnny presley, fuckin up the elegances
So many hookers on your schedule
Slammin cadillac doors and mackin whores on the regular
You used to boost, the slickest of suits
Climbin through the back windows on the bus, you was ill dukes
Until that chick you vicked, for the cutlass
Started snillz-niffin ki-daine, and went to cut cha
That freak shanked you six times in your sleep
I wish you was here, cause your philosophy was mad deep
Yeah... this is in memory of

Keith cowboy, scott larock
Prince messiah rest in peace
Buffy, the human beatbox yknow
Tupac shakur rest in peace
Pinkhouse, sub roc
O.g. boo bang, salute! rest in peace
Seagrams, killa black from mobb deep
Biggie smalls, yeah rest in peace
Lance owens yall

To all my brothers doin time, whether or not you did the crime
You know the system is devised to keep you deaf dumb and blind
Like scarface said, them cats are smart
In order for things to change we must all play a part
Its easy for us to blame society
But now its way too late, and we must take responsibility
To all my brothers in the streets
I know you feel you gotta hustle cause your peeps gotta eat
Makin moves right and exact; dont wanna see you layin flat
Dont wanna see ya catch a bullet black
If we dont build well be destroyed
Thats the challenge we face in this race of poor and unemployed
Freud, a philosopher, but Im a realist
So philosophize this, without love we wont exist
To those who passed out there, in the deserts and the jungles
With pain on their shoulders, and heavy bundles
I pray each one will, ascend to new heights and new enlightenment
And this is why Im writin it
Yeah... this is in memory of

Linnet grinnich, cookie murray
Yeah rest in peace
Ross, laverne la-la eyelif
John hood rest in peace
Kevin fredricks, donny charles
Leslie clark, and will clark rest in peace
Tommy saunders, princess di
Don clark, betty shabazz rest in peace
This is in memory of...
Rest in peace
