Lyrics
[Hook] - For First & Last -
Can someone call a Doc? My friend's passin' away
Jesus; I can't believe that it happened today
I heard a shot.. then he fell w/ his face to the earth
..& There's no one alive who could fill his space an' it hurts
Get a doctor; Please help me.. I'm not letting you die
I've seen one too many friends choose a place in the sky
& You my man, so to lose you is like killing myself
No.. No.. it can't be I'm willing to help
[Intro]
Its kind of ironic, how a situation like this can come about.. But it does happen..
He was my man too.. or your man if you get into the music. Indulge......
I'm providing you an experience to think about, so.. let it soak in..
Verse 1
& Then I fell to my face in the street
All I felt was the heat touch my face in a feast
In a place where we meet.. w/ the man who severs speech
From the dead in clever peace.. I rest my head upon his sheets
Crying but no tears.. & I'm flying w/ no fears
But I'm blind & I'm driving, never one to slow & steer
I had a head upon my shoulders, used to be known
As the dope emcee from Queens who for ever will know
The consequence of jealousy in those eyes of envy
Left me barely holding on to what
I felt was my chevy
& The hum of a man, almost like he was praying
But I could hear himclear & this is what he's saying
Verse 2
In despair.. in these final moments of this truth
I could hear my man.. talk about his gun
..That he hid up in his coupe
Now in his youth.. He was preparin' to use it
While I cling to my last breath, fair in its music
& As I struggle, I can hear him crying an' bawlin'
As he skated from the scene, so confused, its appalin'
Is he callin' or is he fadin' ? 'I'm so distraught I'm debatin'
..On whether I should die.. or fight to stay alive an' waitiin'
The emotions I have held.. ones so deep in the soul
I'm so lost & my help is in this need of control
But he's no longer in sight.. & I can't do much
The shot put me on my ass.. someone pass me a dutch
& As my light fades from view, the last thing I make
Is a face of a friend w/ glossy eyes in a paste
Its all my fault.. I never should've met in this place
'Cause now it seems two lives are..
So far into space
[Hook]
Will someone wake me up? My friend's actin' afraid
Jesus; I can't believe that he's actin' this way
He's got a gun in his car.. & he plans to use it
On himself.. please help, I can't afford to lose him
There's nothing I can do.. but only pray that he won't
End his life w/ a knife or place himself in the scope
Its not a joke.. you can tell that he means what he said
So can someone wake me up.. for I dream that he's dead?
Verse 3
& As I rise, from a demise that left me shook
..Across my chevy, look; You can see me spread like a heavy book..
With my words in the wind, I'm so concerned w/ my sins
That I burn in the lessons learned I've turned in my grin,
'Cause my man needs me in this focus of crisis
Instead I'm chokin' on ice chips in hope of some guidance
Yet I lay up in the hospital.. alive & I'm mumblin'
But the words don't come out.. I've tried
..& I'm stumblin;
I can't move a muscle.. but the TV was on AN'
Channel 5 news.. it's 8 o'clock bright in the mornin'
But somewhere I slipped off & I heard this whisper
The soft wimper of my man lost in a depressed wisher
& when I opened my eyes, I was so surprised;
I seen my man chewing the end of his fortyfive..
& Pull the trigger, right there as he bled in his seat
My man thought I died..& he died 'cause his family was me
