Lyrics
Hello? My son, I have something to tell you What's going on? It's about your Minay... he's gone, he passed What? [Yung Trybez] I got black blood flowing through my veins My brain is covered in blood stains Blood dripping off my fingertips And I'm moving on but can't catch a grip I remember that night like it was yesterday When that phone rang, my life changed And now I'm here with these growing pains That might go away but not today We were turning up in Vancity and I had all my fam with me Draped up, we were looking pretty, we were poppin' bottles and puffin' Nikki Reminiscing about a night like this Man how was I to know it would turn to shit? From city lights to bates quick With that phone call that I can't forget It was ten o'clock sharp when I got the call And my mind was numb from alcohol With stress in her voice, here's what she confessed My brain was numb, but my heart was a mess She said, “Listen up, its about your Minay” What the hell you mean? What you trying to say? She choked up but I can hear the pain “He's gone, he passed away.” Damn, now that's hard to take And it only took a second for my heart to break I'm in disbelief, man you must be mistaken This can't be the truth, get your facts straight And I'm screaming out “Don't do this” I've never felt so useless So I checked my phone for proof first But God damn, that truth hurts! How could you do this I'm feeling so hopeless How could you do this to us? I miss you so so much The black blood was pouring off you Now we're stuck here suffering without you I can't stop thinking about you Black blood, black blood [Yung Trybez] As I hang my thoughts on a broken heart I packed my bags and I called the cab I was going through our texts that I kept on my phone On the plane ride home, man I felt alone I was with the boys that always had my back But the jitters in my bones made it hard to relax And when I seen my pops, I felt the pain His black blood flowed through my veins Look around, minay, its a beautiful day Man I seen your face in a cloud today The sky is grey, but it's okay Bad weather couldn't kill me, I just soak it up and say From flood to drought, man I'm here to play the days out We've all been done dirty and its hard to get the stains out It took away your life and I know you can't explain But we all felt the pain when Cobain blew his brains out Now we take to the road, no passing out These are type of memories I can live without Another day with the fam to pick a casket out and ah I blacked out, 'cause the next thing I know we're pulling up to my house With a line up of trucks to the people in the front For my brother in the back to pull his casket out Take a look around the room man, what do you see? The whole family's here and we can all agree That the room feels empty without ya And I still can't believe that you had to leave But when everybody left, I spent the night Kust to keep you safe and think about life Looking to the sky for advice Don't cry big brother, we'll be aight But yo, it was a tough couple days at the house Got me thinking of an easy way out, me and the minays had to bounce We grabbed the shovels, went on our way Made our way to the grave where we let you lay I'm a Brave like you with a shovel in hand Digging six feet deep to make you one with the land, God damn! Still hurts to say My tears hit the sand as I'm trying to pray And I can't get the blade through the boulder Have you ever dug a grave in October? Man, when the ground is frozen and your heart is broken And I know that my pops can't breathe But he kept telling me “You're free now” As we both crashed down to our knees But I dig deep, you told me that I'll dig a thousand graves to take this one back Or else would do it but beloved ones And your baby girls here, you'd be proud of that And I know, till the day they die Their hearts will be bleeding for ya I said it before, they warriors And I know they'll sing this for ya And that takes me back to your funeral I shed some tears for the sky world I see pain in the soul of your baby girl But how can pain be so beautiful? And that shows our connection was special That's why the creator recruited you And it ain't fair, so we share our prayers Don't cry, minay, you'll be home soon And I hold it down, I got you Spread love to all our baba'o's 'Cause we dumped some beers and we burned some weed And we kept a couple things that you want us to keep And if nothing else, this is quality time With a crack in the sky for the sun to shine Man I love you, bruh, and I see now You ain't dead to me, you're free now How could you do this I'm feeling so hopeless How could you do this to us? I miss you so so much The black blood was pouring off you Now we're stuck here suffering without you I can't stop thinking about you Black blood, black blood [Young D] Lately I've been thinking about my homie that passed On the verge of going insane, hoping I can numb the pain at the bottom of the shot glass Can't seem to let go of the past, I was young and naive thinking this would last Forever, 'cause he was gone in a flash, man plans and God laughs That was the coldest night in October, I ever felt take place The man took his own life wrapped with a rope Had a lump in my throat that left a bad taste Tried saving grace as dirt poured on the grave His baby girls had tears running down their face And his baby mama crying in my arms I was only 21, what the hell am I supposed to say? Man, I was pissed off, that you went out that way But at the end of the day, I miss you more than anything I remember when we talked about a girl that did the same thing and let herself hang That was the baby sis of my minay, it was a little too early but her time still came, RIP It's a touchy subject Standing on the desk with the knot tied above it He said, “It takes 10 seconds of bad judgement" You better think twice before you say f*ck it, damn I know you in the sky watching over The minays and the braves and ya daughters Tryna soldier through life with the weight on they shoulders I just thank God for knowing ya So I open a Coors Light and pour it for ya I regret that I couldn't support and be there for ya So I'ma mourn ya til I join ya, fam 'Cause nowadays I find myself sitting here after The last call, so I cut out all the chitter chatter Blowing all my money like what good does it matter? Couldn't hear my cries behind the laughter, after A young'un broke down and shattered From reminiscing about the homies in the rafters The type of thoughts that make a young'un drink faster Maybe I was born under a bad sign? I guess that's the life of a cancer It feels like that my life is goin' backwards I got a list of questions and I'm looking for the answers, man My heart broken, I'm chain smokin', them bottles open Until the early morning when a young'un yawning, 'cause we're still mourning And its all because of that suicide Not saying that I ever tried, but I've thought about it, man I can't deny I miss you dawg, it's been so hard, you made an impact on all of our lives Your baby girls will always have a spot in my heart forever, it brings tears to my eyes 'Cause you were that guy that taught us how to be a man and keep our heads held high And add fuel to the fire So Rest In Paradise to my M-I-N-A-Ys that turned into some angels over time There's not a day that goes by, when you're not on my mind If you love somebody then tell em, 'cause you never know when its the last goodbye How could you do this I'm feeling so hopeless How could you do this to us? I miss you so so much The black blood was pouring off you Now we're stuck here suffering without you I can't stop thinking about you Black blood, black blood [Young D] Yeah, and even though we had some minays that turned into angels I am forever grateful for the Creator for placing somebody like you in my life More than a friend, YOU, were my minay until the end And, I know in due time we'll meet again, but... until then Rest easy
