Wit and Dre Murray
I Miss You
[Verse 1: Dre Murray]
Homie I’m staring at your picture, no smile on your face
Just a gaze at the lens like you lost, outer space
Thinking ‘bout your last question, how we got to this place
I may never understand when you had your first case
I was way outta town, just tryna embrace
My new found life, a place that was safe
Never thought you'd hit the bank and ask for the safe
Bag full of cash, hot gun in your waist
Now I’m praying that it’s not too late
But through the glass all I’m seeing are eyes full of hate
And a heart full of rage, a spirit ready to break
Soul so tired, but his flesh is awake
[Hook: Kelly Kelz]
I done been through fire, see these scars, I done been through pain
I done been through storms, I done been through calm, I done been through rain
Oh man, I miss you
[Verse 2]
And we told ‘em we was cousins even though we wasn’t kin
But it was known between each other that we’d be brothers to the end
Running after sin, never thought you’d see the end
By the barrel of a gun at the hands of other men
Now regret in sinking in
What do I say to your moms? Where do I begin?
See I really can’t pretend, though I called you friend
The life you had before you died, I wasn’t even in
I’m like, how did that happen?
And can we go back to the start? Huh?
Man I’m not just rapping
I’m praying that this verse heals my heart
[Hook]
I done been through fire, see these scars, I done been through pain
I done been through storms, I done been through calm, I done been through rain
Oh man, I miss you
[Verse 3]
Back at the hospital peeking at the chart
Diagnosis is slowly tearing my family apart
Praying at your bedside, I just wanna hear you breathing
I’ll be on my knees ‘til this nurse tell me to leave her
Gazing out the window, but listening for your heart
Like I’m searching for the tempo, thinking to the start
Before the cancer sliced you up like Kimbo
Tryna stay calm but inside I want to vent though
And ask the Lord why
I turn and grabbed your hand and we all start to cry
And then she looked me dead in the eye
She said they can take my body but my spirit won’t die
[Hook]
I done been through fire, see these scars, I done been through pain
I done been through storms, I done been through calm, I done been through rain
Oh man, I miss you
