Late night lights, the city had its shine, Boys on the block, we just sippin' on time. Jay by my side, laughter filled the air, But shadows crept close, didn’t see the despair. One moment, we vibed, the next, it went dark, Gunshots echoed, left me with a scar. Lost my brother, man, it cut me so deep, Now I’m haunted by the secrets I keep. Chorus I lost my friend to the night’s cruel game, Jay, you’re gone, but I'm feelin’ the pain. Holdin’ your memory, I’m never lettin’ go, Took the opps down, but it didn’t ease the blow. Life’s a w*r zone, and I’m wearin’ my pride, In memory of Jay, I carry him inside. Verse 2 Revenge on my mind, yeah, I’m lookin’ for peace, The streets are a jungle; I’m the beast off the leash. Met ’em in the alley, darkness on my side, A heart full of anger, no longer I hide. Tears turned to bullets, each name on the list, Fates intertwined, like a twisted plot twist. Jay, you were laughter, now I’m lost in a f***t, I’ll keep pushin’ forward, but the pain’s outta sight. Bridge I see your face in every shadow that I chase, You were the light, man, you filled up the space. Now it’s cold nights, with the pain in my chest, I pray for the day I can finally rest. When I lay my head down, I’ll be callin’ your name, Hope you hear me, Jay, 'cause it’s all been so strange. Outro So I carry this weight, this burden I wear, In every verse I rap, in every breath of air. Though they took you away, your spirit remains, In the rhythm of my heart, livin' through all the pain.
