歌词

[00:26.29] At my brother's Janazah
[00:28.19]
[00:28.99] Tears stained sunglassses
[00:31.46] A Salat with no bows
[00:33.76] Pallbearer carry you to the car now
[00:36.69] Chilly day Mosque on 96 and 3rd
[00:40.15] New York City way me and Jay never left my side
[00:45.33] Rest like that picture with your pride
[00:47.63] Who look just like
[00:50.22] Now the city looks less bright
[00:53.46] Brooklyn looking less special
[00:55.09] Don't carry the same weight
[00:56.89] As when you were on this level
[00:58.43] You: work in progress from 40 projects God bless
[01:06.37] An inspiration and a king
[01:08.25] They won't know what I mean but this one 'bout to spring
[01:12.10] Protect it with every feather on the wings
[01:14.55] So even when it hurts you'll never feel a thing
[01:16.92] Said it's a cold cold war
[01:19.79] Ain't nobody wins like the government
[01:23.17] In the U S S R
[01:26.34] Cause this is all for shares
[01:27.95] Nobody cares
[01:29.68] Who you think you are
[01:32.73] And you can fight it but there's no defense
[01:36.12] For what things are
[01:39.73]
[01:40.66] Baby grab a jacket
[01:42.34] It's a cold cold
[01:43.53] Let me clarify the chorus
[01:44.78] And what my cold war is
[01:46.87]
[01:47.81] Cause the complexity is enormous
[01:50.51] Using one of my greatest losses with eyes like faucets
[01:54.57] To reinforce every single word that I talk with
[01:58.49] Something about losing things human beings
[02:00.55] That reduces things to their most elementary
[02:04.66] Find yourself where you never meant to be
[02:08.24] With the energy of memories
[02:10.27] That's the soul force of what's behind killing me
[02:14.57] Finding pleasure in the pains
[02:16.81] Like finding desert in the rain
[02:18.98] Twisted: how this world can drive you masochistic
[02:21.19]
[02:22.37] Question if I'm over it
[02:24.11] Or if I'm numb because I'm closureless
[02:26.47] Or my closure's that we all gotta go and shit
[02:29.56] Rendered emotionless but moving at the speed of running over it
[02:33.01] Still happy that I opened it
[02:34.12] Said it's a cold cold war
[02:36.71] Ain't nobody wins like the government
[02:39.94] In the U S S R
[02:41.68]
[02:43.09] Cause this is all for shares
[02:44.72] Nobody cares
[02:46.38] Who you think you are
[02:49.41] And you can fight it but there's no defense
[02:52.71] For what things are
[02:57.40] Baby grab a jacket
[02:58.89] It's a cold cold
[03:00.31] In the studio writing these words
[03:02.05] One after another
[03:02.90] In memorial of my brother
[03:04.70] As you listen to the album with
[03:06.81] Nothing on the cover
[03:07.91] I imagine that he hovers
[03:09.67] In the back of his chair
[03:11.23] Floating right there in the air
[03:12.84] Nodding his head to the music I slightly lose it
[03:16.54] Ask why do I put myself through this
[03:19.79] Crack a smile look up at the file
[03:22.79] The waveforms on the screen of me tryna tell you what I mean
[03:26.96] But I feel that it's all lost
[03:28.59] Or maybe that it's all gotta cross
[03:31.38] Happy with his dedicated song
[03:33.96] But now he's all gone
[03:35.52] But he was never there cause
[03:37.24] He was everywhere nowhere and down here
[03:40.45] Maybe on that judgement day rise up
[03:43.20] We'll both open our eyes up climb up
[03:46.59] Hoping God forgives us for our tendencies
[03:49.33] Wipes away our cool young histories
[03:50.63] Said it's a cold cold war
[03:53.49] Ain't nobody wins like the government
[03:56.67] In the U S S R
[03:58.66]
[03:59.83] Cause this is all for shares
[04:01.51] Nobody cares
[04:03.13] Who you think you are
[04:06.22] And you can fight it
[04:07.83] But there's no defense
[04:09.52] For what things are
[04:14.34] Baby grab a jacket
[04:15.70] It's a cold cold
[04:17.78]
[04:19.59] Ride around you know what I'm saying
[04:22.38] All over the world right I mean everywhere
[04:27.51] I mean we just disappear and just come back
[04:30.81] I feel like we can just put him anywhere
[04:32.55]
[04:33.62] He'd find his way back home y'know'm saying
[04:38.79] Another random thing's that consequence to me
[04:41.56] But maybe to you not much
[04:46.50] But with that said the reason behind me
[04:53.94] Why I do what I does love
[05:01.30]
[05:02.98] Just riding around bumping that uh
[05:05.15] Either Jay or Nas or me
[05:10.13]
[05:11.48] I used to tell him like "yeah you alright"
[05:16.36] But you ain't f**king with my man
[05:18.43]
[05:21.59] It was always like that so
[05:27.04]
[05:28.02] Drop a little for you let it bump
[05:31.79]
[05:33.84] This that Esco music it's that Esco music
[05:42.83]
[05:46.25] Bumping with my Esco music that raw
[05:52.64]
[05:56.18] See you on the other side As-Salamu Alaykum
