(Tribute to Big Mello)
[Chorus:] [x2]
I really hate it that we Lost Another Soldier
Time & time it seems this world be gettin' colder
You never really know when your time gon' be over
It feel like it's forever ridin' on our shoulders
[Trae:]
Why did I have to say goodbye? This life the best here, kneel down & I cry
I can't lie heavenly father, why all of my real n*ggas gotta fight
It was just like yesterday we lost DJ Screw, now B I G M E double L O
Somebody feel my pain before I be alone & I'm about this sure
I can't take no more we'll mask together, wreckin' the stage together
We shine together, we ride forever, pull back in the shop together
Step on the block together damn, it'll be okay
I got a certified plack that's on the way
Trae, Dougie D. & Z-Ro gotta ride for the dog
Gotta grind for the dog, put it down for the dog
I love my dog & I don't wanna lose no more
Big Mello I got you & I'm fin to tell everybody all about you
This life we live is hard, you was another gift to my life
You & Screw & I'm missin' you & now that I think about it, heavenly
[Tony Montana:]
Heavenly father I ain't the one to question your will, or what is it to be done?
But these cemeteries get you acquainted to all of my homies
And this time it's Mello & I just don't understand why that he gone
And the only thing that keepin' me from cryin' is blowin' up on this do do
Like ones in the ghetto, we learn to shock & rock cash that rip flows
And you ain't givin' a f*ck if you want to click sh*t you live on
You said, my heart in the light muthaf*cker, we gon' represent my n*gga
Put the deuce up by the roof, yellin' out what it do for you my n*gga
Wreckin' the microphone 'til 10 & keepin' it crunk for you already
And the plan to get the lab before prayin' with Grandma on that Thursday
Know we gon' ride until then whenever the last your ass gon' be missed
And we gon' hold it down up on the ground 'til we meet up in Heaven
[Chorus:] [x2]
I really hate it that we Lost Another Soldier
Time & time it seems this world be gettin' colder
You never really know when your time gon' be over
It feel like it's forever ridin' on our shoulders
[Dougie D.:]
I'm gon' ride 'til I'm wit ya, damn I really miss ya
I just don't understand why he had to come & get ya
You always kept it positive, paintin' perfect pictures
A soldier with the heart of a lion, a bold heart n*gga
Much respect dog, never will you ever be forgotten
Salvation's in your corner now, down here you got non-stoppin'
Realizin' that your gone, it's really hard to swallow
Tomorrow ain't promised, we livin' time that's borrowed
I wish there was another way that death could be defeated
You left us all in shock, our souls have been depleted
'Til we join you we gon' mourn you, keep the mic on for you
16 shots of loot to the K & Day soldier
[Z-Ro:]
We livin' in war times on time by the hard times. Will it ever get better?
My n*ggas be losin' they life over some of that punk ass cheddar
Everybody gotta have that, so we gotta get up & get that there
The best way we can, everyday is a struggle
And every morning, 6 fellas with a casket in they hand
And it just don't stop, seems like every time a brother fin to reach the top
Shut the f*ck up, Heaven always has a road block, another real n*gga drop
And it's always close to home, paranoid of my people I tote my chrome
Packin' that plastic in the middle of the night, I gotta protect my dome
Lookin' for the reason why my n*gga ain't breathin'
God damn I'm hurtin' this evening. Why the f*ck Big Curtis leave?
And I wanna go with him 'cause I can't stay breathin'
Everyday it's a different thing, broke loose of the drama, loose of the pain
Feel like I'm goin' insane, the rap game will never be the same
[Chorus:] [x2]
I really hate it that we Lost Another Soldier
Time & time it seems this world be gettin' colder
You never really know when your time gon' be over
It feel like it's forever ridin' on our shoulders
[Cl'Che:]
You never know, you never know, when it's your time to go
To the top of the rope 'til you can't climb no more
We miss your energy & your spirit around the studio Big Mello, Big Mello
My partner, my friend, my labelmate to the end
I'll always remember how you brought the light in
Tellin' the world what it do, through all of your songs
I heard I just can't imagine life here, since you gone
This is my cry for you, this is Cl'Che's cry for you
Another Southside Soldier gone, oh
[Chorus:] [x2]
I really hate it that we Lost Another Soldier
Time & time it seems this world be gettin' colder
You never really know when your time gon' be over
It feel like it's forever ridin' on our shoulders
