Homage Lyrics by The Left

Gas Mask

2010

Dedicated to those who no longer with us man
When you have that special someone that's in your life
They help shape and mold you
And you realize they're no longer with you
You start to - just appreciate life a little more you know what I mean?
Make the best outta what you got for right now
You feel me? Lemme explain

[Verse 1 - Journalist 103]
I flash back as I start to drift
Pondering on the days of my youth as a reminisce
That rare love is a special gift
That's why I treasured the moments that we shared in the days abliss
I can't remember when we first encountered
'Cause real recognize real off sight ain't no need to doubt it
We ran cyphers, challenged any competitor
Who thought he could do better and got his head severed
You schooled me on the laws of life
Embracing me like only a brother can and you sacrificed(?)
A true soldier, for the lack of a better word
You got an honorable discharged your time's served
So I pray for the day we meet in a better place
And we can do it all over lookin' at yesterday
But I'ma keep you in my prayers till' that time arrives
You were a blessing in disguise to so many lives

[Hook]

[Verse 2 - Frank West]
Comin' up in the 80s a lotta families withered
Main due to the crack sales and mass killings
When my moms couldn't carry on the marathon
You picked up the baton and kept pushing on
Raising me with the values only a mother gives
Gave me a reason to strive forth for the positive
I can remember on the early years - how you taught me about Abraham and you came to tears
I never thought I would live to see
That I'd be the one that's responsible for you're well-being
It was the least I could do for all you did for me
I could never repay you with any type of fee
You left us in the best condition someone could leave
Bearing witness erasing all of your bad deeds
So I pray we enjoy each other's company
Before the face of our lord blessed with eternity

[Hook]
