[Verse 1]
[Am]Right for [F#dim]a right,
[Am]wrong for a wrong
This is clearly not life's design
Figure out [F#dim]quickly that
[Am]nothing gets answered
When you ask the universe why
[F]Life is a journey, to [Am]live is to worry
To love is to lose your damn mind
But living's a blessing so I
am not stressing
'Cause some of my friends
ain't survived
[F]That's the release, but in [Am]much bigger pieces,
I'm living on limited time
Like how do you look in the eyes of a friend and not
cry when you know that they're dying?
[F#dim]How do you feel [Am]'bout yourself when you know
that sometimes you had wished they were gone?
Not because you didn't love 'em but
just because you felt too weak to be strong
You couldn't bear to see someone who prided
themselves on the strength to feel weak
The cruelty of randomness, hold it for ransom,
that life will not fade in your dreams
You [F]see that they're fighting and [Am]know that they're
losing but still you make jokes and you laugh
'Cause you know despite all the sadness that you
better get the good times while they last
Now [F]every new word that they [Am]speak you are
already feeling like it's in the past
And [F]when they all gone you just try to move [Am]on
'cause the memory's hurting too bad
[F]Grown up so much and I [Am]wonder who
you'd've become if you stuck for a while
Just know that I love you, good friend,

[Verse 2]
ain't forget you, and when I remember I smile
[C]
And I guess I'd say I'll [Am]see you soon
But the truth is that I [F#dim]see you n[Am]ow
Still talk to you like [F]you're [Am]around[C]
And I guess I [Am]say you left too s[C]oon
But the truth is [Am]that you [F#dim]never left
'Cause I [Am]never let my[F]self forget

[Verse 3]
An [Am]eye for an eye, and a tooth for the tooth
Will leave us all [C]mumbling and blind
[F]So we stumble bli[F#dim]nd through
[F]depths of the dark
Looking for something divine
[Am]Life is a [F]journey, to live is to [Am]suf fer
And I have been [F]suffering through [C]mine
[F]But living's a blessing so
[F#dim]I ain't no s[F]tressing
'Cause some of my
niggas ain't 'round
And he got no [Am]drama but his baby mama
is still on my [C]line and she [F]cryin'
I searched for the [F#dim]words to give her some
comfort for [F]her soul and spirit and mind
[Am]I tell her that it'll be fine
But [F]deep down I know that I'm lying
[F#dim]The family came took
rings and his chains
The [F]bank took the house and the rights
The [Am]only thing [F]left was his child,
[Am]and she had a smile in his eyes
So [F]much to the soul, when the [Am]grandmama kept
her, she'd look at her sometime and cry
[F]The very next day she [Am]cried
And day after day she cried
Then called baby mama and told her "I'm sorry,
can't keep her no more, I have tried"
No [F]killer was captured,
but [Am]I know he listening
So I'd like to tell you in song
The streets was a jungle,
I pray that you made it, I hope that you righted your wrongs
I [F]hope that you learn,
I [Am]hope that you changed so your mama won't know this pain
So my homie's name will mean something

[Verse 4]
more than a nigga got killed for a chain
[C]
And I guess I'd say I'll
[Am]see [C]you soon[Am][C]
[Am]But the truth is that [F#dim]I see you now[Am]
Still talk to you like [F]you're [Am]around[C]
And I guess I say you [Am]left too [C]soon
But the truth is [Am]that you [F#dim]never left
[Am]'Cause I never let myself [F]forget
