[Verse 1 - MURS]

Now I used to walk with the gun now I walk like a man

And I walk what I talk and I walk never ran

And I never say never but I mean hardly ever

And if shootin' is the solution then you're not that clever

If you don't know shit then you still know better

Human life is so precious it could never be measured

Have you ever had a load of it cock back the heat

Poppin' on the next nigga while he walkin' up the street

Trigger off safety spacin an opportunity

These niggaz wanna waste me it ain't nothing new to me

Soon as he walked by I was ready to bust

But he just posted up like he was waitin' on the bus

Now I'm all punked up with a steroid trigger

Cause most of y'all are easy just some paranoid niggaz

Used to walk with a gun but I never did use it

What's the point of holdin' heat if you ain't gon' shoot it

Stupid (*echos*)



*different instrumental kicks in*



[Verse 2 - MURS]

It was a late night sunset me and him out

Lookin' at the ladies to come up on some trim

Everybody wildin' out cause the summer's about to end

He had the hypnotic he was missin with the hand

Of that mean green laid back with the deep lean on low pro shit

That's how we rolled on the scene

Two girls lookin' probably in they late teens

But these days you can't tell but I figured what the hell

So we yell out: Hey girl, they yell back

Maybe two in the front maybe two in the back

But they had this dark tag couldn't see through the black

We roll up ask 'em where their party at

They just start to laugh and I knew it was a trap

But I couldn't roll out cause the strip was so packed

Now I'm lookin at this nigga in this motherfuckin' hat

Start talkin' that bullshit like we was on some bullshit

My nigga used to bang but we ain't know no thug shit

I tried to dismantle it but you know Los Angeles

This nigga kept talkin' so my boy had to handle it

He jumped out the Lex snatched the dude at his hat

I put it in park jumped out to get his back

But as I did that, I heared two shots

I turned to my right and I see my dude drop

Time stopped, coudln't believe what I seen

I was struck by reality when the two girls screamed

I saw his killer stand up put the gun in his jeans

Saw him wince from the pain as the heat burned his waist

Then he turned up the block disappeared without a trace

I remember his face but what I remember most

Was when I got to my knees and held my nigga close

And asked not to leave us in the name of Christ Jesus

But he's gone and all I got left is his blood on my sneakers



[Hook - MURS][2X]

It was a year to this day that my best friend died

For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried

And I tried to pretend everything was fine

But my soul couldn't rest until vengeance was mine



*another different instrumental kicks in*



[Verse 3 - MURS]

The day began with me standin' at his grave with his mother

His old girlfriend, his two younger brothers

We said a few words faces covered with tears

How we missed him so much and we wished he was here

Then his girl said a poem put some roses on his stone

And we said our goodbyes and they all went home

I thought I'd use this time for me and him to be alone

I broke out the Hen' poured a little out for him

Told him who was gettin' married, who had went to the pen

How the homie named his newborn son after him

But as the sun went down the talk came to an end

So I said a quick prayer..amen

And I shook in the lab plus the well wrote tracks

And I headed up saw the homie Eyezeer

I asked him what he doin' he was way out of bound

That he had a freak that lived on that side of town

He always kept the heat just in case it went down

A clown, I rolled down my window 'bout to light a ciga-

Hey! Is that that nigga that...hey give me the motherfucking gun

Man, drive around the block and post up for a minute

I hit you on the shirt hit the corner nigga bend it

Splendid now with vengeance in my grasp

I couldn't dream of a better day for me to catch his ass

Slippin while he dippin into the ride by himself

I slid up behind him in the shadows hell of stealth

He started to breakin' stuff I said I didn't want a dime

Remember what you was doin' last year at this time

He looked into my eyes with both shock and surprise

When I split his face with the Glock right before he could reply

He cried as I pressed the heat against his cheek

The I squoze two times for the homie rest in peace



[Hook - MURS]

It was a year to this day that my best friend died

For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried

And I tried to pretend everything was fine

But my soul couldn't rest until vengeance was mine

It was a year to this day that my best friend died

For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried

And I thought that's what I wanted until the problem was confronted

Now I'm haunted by remorse that I wished I hadn't done it
