[00:00.95]Life and death, people come and go, it's part of our destiny.
[00:10.84]You ever have someone you care about just leave your life?
[00:13.51]Whether sudden or it's coming and you can't breathe right
[00:16.25]The first time I was ten when I endured that pain
[00:18.90]My friend's dad was shot in front of my face, I saw brains
[00:22.58]She was nine, she was crushed, she was mine, I had a crush
[00:25.26]Then she moved out of state, her moms abandoned her
[00:27.98]I knew this kid in middle school who refused to make friends
[00:30.64]Cause his dad was military, they'd be moving again
[00:33.38]It's the passing of a grandparent, mom, or dad
[00:36.02]Or a child, take advantage of the times we have
[00:38.75]It's divorce, it's death, it's the loss, regrets
[00:42.36]But for every loss we find something more to connect
[00:45.01]There's a plan though we don't always know what it is
[00:47.75]Like my friend who got married but wifey couldn't have kids
[00:50.45]Then his mom passed away, we were stunned and torn
[00:54.03]Nine months later their son was born
[00:56.78]This is our destiny, what is meant to be will be
[00:59.54]It's out of our hands, part of the plan
[01:03.19]Respect time we have, enjoy the show
[01:04.92]Because people come and go
[01:08.54]And when they go they're missed
[01:11.29]Whether old or kids
[01:12.15]It's the memories we make, it's that ownership
[01:13.93]It's the unknown fear, it's the fear we know
[01:16.63]When our people come and go
[01:20.28]We're trapped in a race against time
[01:22.05]I guess that some of us are running slower
[01:23.85]You never know when the Grim Reaper might be coming over
[01:26.57]A boy watch his older brother go become a soldier
[01:29.22]Die overseas, now he barely sees his mother sober
[01:31.01]His father left her, he don't know if he should love or loathe her
[01:34.61]He wishes pops would just show up with a dozen roses
[01:37.34]Him and cousin Joseph jumping on the fucking sofas
[01:40.96]Screaming out the window at the city while they're chugging sodas
[01:43.62]Laughing, not fully grasping or grappling with truth
[01:46.32]Smoking grass, hanging on the corner tackling their youth
[01:49.03]Absentee parents and violence is everywhere
[01:51.71]Chaos and loss surround them but their eyes never tear
[01:54.47]They share private stock, bitches, Hennessy, fistfights and enemies
[01:57.12]They share the same pain, same blood, and same memories
[02:00.73]They was everything that was clear but wasn't said
[02:03.43]Till he shows up at the crib and finds his cousin dead
[02:06.18]This is our destiny, what is meant to be will be
[02:09.75]It's out of our hands, part of the plan
[02:12.50]Respect time we have, enjoy the show
[02:15.14]Because people come and go
[02:17.99]And when they go they're missed
[02:19.68]Whether old or kids
[02:20.68]It's the memories we make, it's that ownership
[02:23.38]It's the unknown fear, it's the fear we know
[02:26.00]When our people come and go
