[Notorious B.I.G.]
Yeah, dedicatin this to my ^!$$% O
We miss you ^!$$%

Goin out to all the ^!$$%s that died in the struggle
Word up, %#@! is real in the field
You know, sparkin blunts to all you ^!$$%z

Word up

Each and every day

The daydreams of how we used to be
See your family
And that baby's lookin just like you

Why'd you go away
I've been missin you lately
Tell me why you're gone and thru


[Verse One: Notorious B.I.G.]


I remember sellin three bricks of straight flour
Got my man a beat down to the third power
He didn't care, spent the money in a half hour

Got some fishscale, ain't no competition that could sour
Got the !@%!e cooked up, a crackhead heaven
In eighty-eight, when Kane ruled, with Half Steppin

A thirty-eight, a lot of mouth, was our only weapon
We was king till the G's crept in
And now I'm missin em


[Chorus:]


Ooh, I'm missin you
Tell me why the road turns, why it turns
Ooh, I'm missin you

Nah nah nah nah nah, oh tell me why why why why

[Verse Two: Notorious B.I.G.]


We work all week, we dancin, play the movies
We rock flatops, our girls rocked doobies

Made a killin, even though the D's knew me
Eventually, you know they try to do me
$#&@ it

Fed up, my ^!$$% want to take it down south
Sick of cops comin, sick of throwin jacks in his mouth
Gave him half my paper, told 'em go that route

Few months, he got his brain blown out
Now I'm stressed
His baby's mother, she trippin, blamin me

And his older brothers, understand, the game it be
Kinda topsy turvy
You win some, you lose some

Damn, they lost a brother
They mother lost a son
$#&@, why my ^!$$% couldn't stay in NY?

I'm a thug, but I swear for three days I cried
I look in the sky and ask God why
Can't look his baby girls in the eye

Damn I miss you

[Chorus]


[Verse Three: Notorious B.I.G.]


There was this girl around the way that make cats drool
Her name's Drew, played fools out they money in pool
People swore we was $#&@in but we was just cool

She used to hang while I slang my drugs after school
She'd watch my bomb, help my moms with the groceries
My little sister, the girl was kinda close to me

A little closer than the average girl's supposed to be
Far from a lover, my girl was jealous of her
Then she started messin with some major players

Handled keys, ^!$$%s called them the Bricklayers
A dread kid, had a baby fore that (*##$ Taya
Found out her baby's father cheatin, now Drew she gotta slay her

One night, across from the corner store
Taya ran around the block with a chrome four-four
Squeezed all six shots in the passenger door
The dude lived, what my baby had to die for
We missin her


[Chorus]
