The Used: Veteran's memorial

Memories play back like filmI flash back we was little niggas livin most real1989's when we first metWe first clicked over convo' gettin twistedIn dunn grand earth crib cuttin outta schoolWatchin cable it seemed like the other dayThrough the eyes of a stranger we was kidsBut in our own minds we was grown mensOutside on the block we would play the benchAnd y'all play the rock every chance y'all gotAs I sat back and just watched hey, what can I say?The same back then as I am todayI can recall me, Jemel and JamalIn the room drinkin straight vodka with they momsWhen I walk home with the big nefertiti charmBack with the light blue camoflauge suitGod me and Hav' doin it hard, tryin to get onWe sampled songs on the box with record and pauseKiller B didnt even get his first firearmAnd I was still holdin one shot derringersWho would think anyone of us would cease to existLeft with just thoughts of the past to reminisceSometimes I see a chick walkin past with ya kidsOr find an old flicka of some 1-2-5thAll the shit that we been through it boils to this?Dun, I wish we could start it all over againNinety-five, we on top tourin the statesA lotta times we even took the click overseasCame along way from the hallwaySitting in the staircase with BacardiBring the honeycomb speaker outside to bangWhile we would share drinks with the other that cameTriple L stayed takin they cash in dice gamesKiller Black grew to keep an ice grill, dunn was not playinYammy, the most Infamous told me one day"Put the bogies down 'fore I pound you out P"But it was all love, we was eash others dunnsWe held each other down, borrowed each other gunsIts hard to believe that niggas so strong could die so easily forever be goneI could still feel the web of your palm, against mine cause we did our hand shake all the timeWhy it have to be your time to go and not mines?Spilled tears contemplating to my delf cryinAll the laughs we shared and fights we hadAll the nights we would get nice, damnPlates of food we split in halfI dedicate the rest of my life to all my niggas that passedWhat the fuckin deal, motherfuckin Scarface nigga, killerFor Bean, Fugi, Gooey, (I can't take no more nigga), CoreyBlack Ed, the fuck, knahmsayin?
