Lost Love

(Verse 1)

When we were shorties you there with me till the end.
we held each other up
When I cried, we cried.
It was hard, god made it that way.
We got pushed and pulled.
Every one looked down on us
Told us we weren't mean for life.
We would never make it.
We were put here by mistake.
But we never let that get us down
We were strong no matter what
We kept doing what we were doing
And we always…

(Chorus)

Kept our dreams alive
Let them haters just fly on by
Lived the way we lived
Did what we could do to survive
Nothing got in our way
We proved those people wrong
And never looked back
Its all in the past
We are better than that

(Verse 2)

We grew to teenagers
So much drama
People brought us down more than before
Fights, drugs, sex, gangs, divorce and school
We began to fall
Not knowing what to do
We gave into the mess of hard life
We looked back
The day came for one of us to end.
It happened to be you
I wish it wouldn't of been
Shot in the drama of gangs and family
I cried and when I cried it was just me, not we.
There was no more
But then I remembered what we would always do
And that was…

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)

Im a young adult now
Struggling with out you, on my own
I did most of what we wanted to do
Laughed at the hates in their face
No longer brought down
There are hard times still but I made it
Im working towards our every dream
Doing it big that's what we always planned
You know I wish you was here
I think of you every day
Realizing life is too short
Now im doing what I do best
And its all for you
I will always do what we said
You know…

(Talk)

Seeing you leave the world was the worst thing ever to happen to me, but you are always in
my heart and will always help me keep my dreams alive no matter were you are. I miss you
De'Shawn  my cousin. I love you mane we had the best times you know Im always keeping you
in my thoughts. For those who lost a loved one or anyone at all keep ya head up and keep
them in ya heart. They will always help you no matter what. Rest in peace to all those
lost due to murder or any other tragedy. We love every single one of yall and yall will
always be in our hearts yall know who yall is.

Chorus. Till end
