Ol' Crew Lyrics & Tabs by Mr. Lif
Ol' Crew
guitar chords lyrics
Praying for a mic to clutch
I used to sit up with my man
Dave-O; and smoke blunts
We were upstate New York
Cold, thinking of a plan
To flip our lyrical skills
So we could make grands
Have thousands of fans
Travel state to state
But it all started at this house
And got the ultimate respect
I outstretched my arm
And gave him a pound cause he correct
In retrospect it was me
A short little fly nigger
And gave him a pound cause he correct
In retrospect it was me
A short little fly nigger
Or maybe somethin premeditated
Dave would get crazy hype
And that encouragement was my nourishment
I took his positive words to heart
And brother: I don't know where you are now
Cause we haven't spoken for a while
And I'm without a number to dial
But everytime I think about you I smile
'nuff respect for helpin' me
These are people you once knew
Everybody got a different goal to pursue
Don't forget your peoples
No matter what you do
And this goes out to you
And you and you and you
I dropped outta college
Now I'm in Long Island
And a mega-dread power crew
The taught me to roll locks
Then they laid down the law
And this is how it read
It say: Grow, never to cut and
And to this day I've obeyed them
We pull our money together
Then sat in front of the television
Commercialized rap backs
And fuck the radio, too
Niggers turn off that bullshit
Please keep the? from moving
These are times I'll never forget
But things change and people grow apart
But listen to my rhyme
And feel the love in my heart
Cause I'm still standing
And my ears mad strong
And let me know what's going on
These are people you once knew
Everybody got a different goal to pursue
Don't forget your peoples
No matter what you do
And this goes out to you
And you and you and you
Sometimes people part ways for good reasons
Their nature wasn't pleasing
Has made himself invisble
And rather than talking
Somebody turned their back
And just started walking
Tears started rolling up
And cry held 'em back
Can be a deadly force
How much you loved the things that you lost
Everything, including life, is temporary
So I hope that everybody in my life
And this include my cousins
To shake hands by the dozens
But excluding the cops
The lunatic niggers who bust shots
I gotta stop (gotta stop)
Yo, I'm just sharing my thoughts
These are people you once knew
Everybody got a different goal to pursue
Don't forget your peoples
No matter what you do
And this goes out to you
And you and you and you
