Good Bye

Yeah, yeah, let's switch the flow up a little
Word, bring the love back, here we goYou ever lost somebody
A member of your party
Your daddy, maybe mommy?
For them there was no copyJust know that we all asleep
Pray to the Lord my soul will keep
Life is a dream no need to weep
God's gonna wake us up from sleepEvery night we die, we practice for death
Every time we sleep, we say goodbye
But I still can't get over the fact
That my best friend's awake and not comin' backSo as the tears
(Tears roll from my eyes, yeah)
Uhh, uhh, I never got a chance to say
(Good-bye)

Yeah, bring the love back
Bring the love backWhen you wake up
Then you'll know, what was up
You won't live, so corrupt
Only love, you'll take upAll the chasin' and rushin'
Impatience and fussin'
The racin' for somethin'
The hatin' and frontin' is makin' you nothin'So die before you die
So when you die you don't die
You got to die before you die
So when you die you don't dieYou got to die to all the world
All the guys and the girls
You got to die to lovin' money
And them diamonds and pearlsSo as the tears
(Tears roll from my eyes, yeah)
I never got a chance to say to y'all

Bring the love back, uhh, hip-hopSo remember when they die
They have only woke up
It's our wants and our needs
That be chokin' us up
(And I want and I need
And I want and I need)Yo, there was a time
When hip-hop was on our mind
It wasn't about no crime
Just reality rhymesIf you battled me fine
But in the end we reclined
With a bottle of wine
