Story behind the song
I don't even remember where I got that beat from... But that sample spoke to me... And it's basically three letters I wrote to the people who influenced me most growin' up... My dad (RIP) my mother, and my old rap partner, Nasaya.
Lyrics
[Verse1] Dear pop... I know you're watchin me / wondering what mnner of man is this your young man has become / Well it's not as bad as it looks / I'm still addicted to books / I'm still smarter than the average BLEEP comin up out of the Park / But I'm still scarred by the way that you left me hangin like to nuts / I'm sorry if the way I guzzle down these brews BLEEPs / With the vision that you had for me / But I look in the mirror and I'm not really sure who it is lookin back at me / I think it's the bad me / The way you blew out on me and moms was something like a bad knee / But me Terans and Theron kept things running smoothly like a track team on ExLax / Mom got strung out on crack BUT / God brought her back / I went to rehab for a minute cause my wrist / I tried to slit it and I might not admit it, BUT / Between us, I wish that I could have a dad / ANd if I could then everything I have, I would give it back cause it's... [Chorus] Here Today and Gone Tomorrow (and once it's gone then you can't get it back man.. You can have it today, and then it's...) Gone Tomorrow... (Somethin like them 40 acres to the black man) Here today, and Gone Tomorrow (So hold on while you can man.. You can have it today and then it's...) Gone tomorrow (And once it's gone, then you can't get it back man) [Verse2] And this is for mama / I know the drama I put you through get's dumber / By the second, but I reckon that we done been through worse / I know when daddy died, it put you through some BLEEP that hurt / I felt it too, I'm still feelin it / and then what's worse / I feel like I'm turnin out to not be BLEEP / Like I'm gone end up strung up so I can't maintain the little that I have / And this critical mass is this close to me blowin up / Throwin up the food for thought you gave me cause I can't digest / Yet I digress / I couldn't keep my little sister from going down the wrong fork in the road / cause I was eatin with a spoon / I should have did more than I did, but I was too caught up with stupid BLEEP like / tryna keep up with people that had more than I did / I'm sorry this kid / Let you down, it won't happen again / I'm puttin you up in a crib where you'll never have to work another day for as long you live / You never have to shed another tear for neither one of your kids / I hope this applies to pain / Cause if it does, then this is.... [Chorus] Here Today and Gone Tomorrow (and once it's gone then you can't get it back man.. You can have it today, and then it's...) Gone Tomorrow... (Somethin like them 40 acres to the black man) Here today, and Gone Tomorrow (So hold on while you can man.. You can have it today and then it's...) Gone tomorrow (And once it's gone, then you can't get it back man) [Verse3] Kiara / wherever you are / I'm sorry the errors commited / During the era of the Krymynal split us / Remember, I got ya back / Whatever goes down / I gets down with that / C.H.A.O.S. forever, I put everything I have on that / I'm still spittin, it's the only thing I have left / And I spit that hot BLEEP till I can only breathe cold breath / You held me down when / cats tried to blow me up / BLEEP tried to joke me up / We slaughtered 3 hour battles in the hallways / Skip classes like badasses / went at it / Gave it to whoever / whenever they said BLEEP we spat at em / But your heart was in it / I wasn't ready / I was flippin backwards like a radio edit / couldn't get it together / You let me go and I was lost / And I was strung out / Beatin the BLEEP out of everything I came accross in the halls / But GUES WHO'S BACK / and I hope your not like the words in the hook / Cause everytime I move forard / I turn around and look / To see if your... [Chorus] Here Today and Gone Tomorrow (and once it's gone then you can't get it back man.. You can have it today, and then it's...) Gone Tomorrow... (Somethin like them 40 acres to the black man) Her
