[Verse 1: Verbal Kent]
My life was never as complicated as I made it out to be
In fact the answers were always right in front of my face it seems
That every little thing that bothered me, was truly little
I made 'em big deals, handled like a true beginner
That's not to say I didn't problem solve
I'm just saying I wasted time I wish I had back to spend with those I loved is all
I mean to focus on only the bad is counter productive
I was a writer, business man, father and husband
A true Chicagoian, I feel proud saying this
I saw Michael Jordan play at Chicago Stadium
Greatest rapper Roger's Park ever saw
Got into my share of trouble but I always knew to Call Saul
Made my friends laugh, gave 'em my all
You know Dan
As far as enemies? Shit, I could count on my one hand
It's been a good run, no regrets
Everything is everything
Anticipation builds feels like everything was meant to be

[Hook: Verbal Kent]
When it's too late and all the "What ifs" are no more than butterfly effects
Did I choose fate? Let me look back
Cause if not then what did I expect?
What did I expect?
What did I fight for and what did I accept?
Did I choose fate? Let me look back
Cause if not then what did I expect?
[Verse 2: Red Pill]
So here lies Chris, died 2-0-1-6
Born 1-9-8-7, many roles he lived
He was a son he was a lover, an artist and a brother
Wasn't always the happiest and honest motherfucker though
Some people loved him for that
Hip hop had given him hope, it made him want to give back
Put everything that he knew in every one of his raps
And he would give you the truth and he would run from his past
Maybe he was too hard on himself
He let his drinking and depression hurt his art and his health
He let relationships get rocky while his problems took control
And his girl put up with things that other's probably wouldn't know
He lived with guilt he lived with doubt
He lived with demons in his heart would probably never figure out
But at the end of the day
He had too big of a heart, he'll be remembered that way
