| Yo this is dedicated to Ricky |
| The coolest kid in the city |
| You was 6 battling n****s that was 16 |
| I wish things were really what they seemed |
| How could God give you wings that he shoulda gave me |
| Age 3 you was brought into my family |
| How can it be |
| A child that looked more like my daddy than me |
| Brought me sanity, you see that I wanted to rule the planets |
| But I dropped out of school and forgot to say congrats to you |
| Perhaps I wanted you to meet me on a higher plane at a older age so you could |
| see how I behave |
| Clean cut and you didn’t need to shave cus you had the richest melanin my |
| relatives claim |
| My homi, same height as my homie my own |
| Tak flight on anyone from my home my little bro |
| Little brother like I didn’t have another little bro |
| Always loved you like the others I just had to let you know |
| Even though we ain’t shared the same blood we carried the same name |
| And you wear it a little better I think |
| Ricky Barnes, a gangster like the great Nicky Barnes a lost angel |
| Crown of a thousand halos you wore |
| Cus I swore your soul was more pure than gold |
| And you showed me how rare that is to hold |
| I don’t know how this happened to someone as strong as you |
| Got me looking for a hole to crawl into |
| It’s a (blue world) |
| Now that you gone |
| I made you this song |
| To play it along |
| Til the day that I’m gone |
| You will never be forgotten |
| You will always be riding by my side, it’s a |
| Now that you gone |
| I made you this song |
| To play it along |
| Til the day that I’m gone |
| You will never be forgotten |
| You will always be by my side |
| This is dedicated to Steven |
| One day I’m gonna get even |
| The furthest I ever got was a deacon |
| But a pastor, I gotta ask you |
| What can make you wanna give it all up to god |
| From your fam to your friends, all your hobbies and your job |
| That’s a pastor, he has to change his lifestyle after |
| I don’t think that I would last a day in your shoes |
| You told us you was making a change ready to show us what you’d already gained |
| Knew you’d promote us to a higher plane |
| A higher train of thought closer to the cross |
| Knowing we would all walk with you one day, why not |
| Guess God made other plans for your soul |
| I apologize I hit you in the eye with a pole |
| Playing baseball in my front yard, play your race card cus I don’t know how you |
| was so dark with your green eyes so unique you couldn’t be seen twice |
| You reinvent every time you visit for the weekend |
| I was touring Below The Heavens when I got the message |
| Left me devastated your fam wouldn’t let you into heaven, they was holding onto |
| you so tight that night |
| That driver fell asleep at the wheel, took your life |
| It’s like you was the purest of the three amigos |
| You had a mean green soul you could never let go |
| In my eyes the saddest story that I heard in my life |
| I remember you for the rest of my life |
| It’s a |
| Now that you gone |
| I made you this song |
| To play it along |
| Til the day that I’m gone |
| You will never be forgotten |
| You will always be riding by my side, it’s a |
| Now that you gone |
| I made you this song |
| To play it along |
| Til the day that I’m gone |
| You will never be forgotten |
| You will always be by my side |
| This is dedicated to Carolyn |
| Marilyn older sister Carolyn |
| My older cousin had the soul of a barbarian |
| As a girl, as a kid that’d change your world |
| As a grown man that would make you more thorough |
| That’s my cousin |
| One of the many that kept my feet grounded, heart pounding with my cousin |
| running round clowning each other |
| Even though we were proud of each other |
| You would clown me every time I would come over |
| I wish when we got older we could’ve built more but God took you from a world |
| you was too real for |
| I know you still here though |
| Through your nephews and nieces and your family |
| Without question, I know you understand me even though we ain’t have the most |
| memories |
| We bonded on a level most my n****s couldn’t reach and that’s deep |
| But we was more in your face with it |
| Your energy still lifts me to this day it’s a blessing to have known you |
| I’m honored to be one of your fam |
| Even though I’m not blood you treat me like I really am |
| Hope I did the same, hope we get to hang up in heaven |
| Hope the time we spent apart never really separates us |
| I know the lord measures your greatness with the godly ones |
| This is dedicated to anyone that’s ever lost someone |
| Let your music talk to them, remind em we know |
