[Verse]

We were kicking at the crib

Mom was at work when he did what he did

Three nights gone, don’t know where he is

Got worried sick, thought maybe he was dead

Prayed to God that hoping he would live

From what it is that got him killed

No phone call yet, but waited for the ring

We took turns just in case it was missed

Life went on and still wasn’t missed

Mom had to work, could not afford to miss one day of it or we had no rent

Check pays up or we had no tent

And food that was made was the rest of what’s left

Three nights gone, where thе fuck you at

We running in circles, therе wasn’t no track

Our mind went racing doing all the laps

Dad, where the fuck you at?

Had to go to school, was tryna do the math

All I had to think was when you coming back or how we gonna live if you ain’t coming back

It’s 1:16, just got out of class

The blue Nissan was all that I had

Running on permit, still haven’t done the task

Drove side street just passed all the traffic

It’s 1:31, just got in the crib

Fixed me a plate with the leftover chicken

Saved an amount for two of my women

Washed it all down with the water I was drinking

3 days in, you were still just missing

Last that we talked you said you were chilling with your colleagues

Why we ain’t call the police, and praying and wishing to not be reaping

Then I got a call and you sounded drunk and asked to pick you up but don’t tell mom them

Pick me in front of the street where the rocks is

Red in my face but I had no reaction

Drove side street and I stepped in a hurry

Heart was pounding, tears were heavy

Cautionary signs but we got home safely

Laid on the couch, he ain’t do no talking

5 hours later, he ain’t do no talking

Mom came home from the second time clocking

Out of his mind but we need what’s happening

Tell us the truth and please don’t drag it

We found out that he blew all the money

Comical truth but there was nothing funny

Plans that were tied cut all the strings sewed

Years hard worked straight out window

Early retirement, gone

Home in the work, gone

College paid off, gone

Future to see, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone

Time sat still like listening

Broke off the branch where the birds would sing

Never gonna stop till the job is done

We were kicking at the crib when mom was gone (brown)
