[Intro]
I can't believe it
I never thought that this day would come
Me and my dawg we been thru everything
He was my day 1 and I was his day 1 too
We've had our backs since we ever since we met each other
And then, something happened
And then, he died
That broke my heart
[Verse 1]
Ayy, he was my day one, we've had each other's back since then
After every hangout, we'd count down the days till we saw each other again
Yeah, but we didn't hangout in no playpen
We cruised all of Chicago in my matte black Cayenne
Yeah, we spent the day watching ESPN
Then we'd pull up to the parties at 7pm
We'd party and watch out for 12 and end at 10am
Then we'd watch TV and do it again (but this time)
We was in the Back of the Yards jus chillin'
Then 12 showed up and they started killin'
They shot my dawg in his head and that killed him
I look at 12 like, "What is yo deal? We jus chillin!"
They pointed a gun at me so I got to whippin' (skrt)
I was so broken, my heart started rippin'
At the same time I was mad, yeah, my head was sizzlin'
So I hit 12 from the back and their car started flippin' and tippin'
[Chorus]
I can't believe it, what can I do?
I can't do nothing so I'm in the blues
I wish it was something that I could undo
But I can't so it's sadness that I go through
There's a lotta things that we been thru
Now that he's gone, my heart's split in 2
Now that he's gone, what am I gonna do?
I don't have an answer so I'm stuck in the blues
[Verse 2]
Second and last story, back in '09, I was walking in Los Angeles
After seeing the Golden Gate Bridge saying, "I love this life I live"
Me and my dawg were throwin' coins in the fountain, we made a wish
That when we got older we'd both drive luxurious whips
It's true, I got a Rolls, he got a Bentley, I said, "Bro, we did it"
Then as soon as we got em, we iced out our wrists
Gucci flip flops on us got us feeling like princes
If the haters keepin score, they know we winnin'
But, one day in Miami
I was doin 160 in my Caddy
12 chasin after me, yeah, they mad at me
They shot twice, second shot made my dawg's back bleed
It hit his spine so he died instantly
That's when I got so angry
So I hit 12 so badly
Their car crashed and burned in an alley
[Chorus]
I can't believe it, what can I do?
I can't do nothing so I'm in the blues
I wish it was something that I could undo
But I can't so it's sadness that I go through
There's a lotta things that we been thru
Now that he's gone, my heart's split in 2
Now that he's gone, what am I gonna do?
I don't have an answer so I'm stuck in the blues
[Bridge]
I don't understand why life gives me so much trouble
It has no reason to burst my bubbles
Does it understand my struggle
I don't think it does so it gives me double trouble
Trouble, trouble, trouble, makin me tumble
It's like we lost a really important piece of the puzzle
Coca-Cola and champagne is what we guzzle
To make the pain go away but we're still stuck in the tunnel
[Chorus]
I can't believe it, what can I do?
I can't do nothing so I'm in the blues
I wish it was something that I could undo
But I can't so it's sadness that I go through
There's a lotta things that we been thru
Now that he's gone, my heart's split in 2
Now that he's gone, what am I gonna do?
I don't have an answer so I'm stuck in the blues
[Chorus]
I can't believe it, what can I do?
I can't do nothing so I'm in the blues
I wish it was something that I could undo
But I can't so it's sadness that I go through
There's a lotta things that we been thru
Now that he's gone, my heart's split in 2
Now that he's gone, what am I gonna do?
I don't have an answer so I'm stuck in the blues
[Outro]
This is a cruel environment
I wish everything was normal
But it ain't and I don't know what to do to fix it
I just want everyone to live death-free and heartbreak-free lives
That's all I want
All I want, nothing else, but that
