[Verse 1: Phife Dawg]
People come into your life for a reason, season
Seventeen years and shorty still got me cheesin'
Twenty-third birthday, how could I not remember?
Gloomy, foggy day, twentieth of November
Train delays galore, three hours at LaGuardia
Son, take a shot, now we well out to order
We got a show in the Great Lakes scene
Joe Louis Arena, boy, you gotta love the D
Twenty thousand seat, the home of the Red Wings
Show sold out, gotta do the damn thing
Reggie Noble on the bill and De La makes it insane
Shaheed Muhammad said, "Better bring your A-game"
So 313, represent, represent
Detroit city, represent, represent
Crowd bum-rushed the front in less than a sec
ATCQ, that's what I call respect, yo

[Chorus: Lyric Jones]
So I been curious about the reasons
That people come in life, that different seasons
After all these years went by, still been on my mind
Wish I can run it back again one time, one time

[Verse 2: Phife Dawg]
Honeys backstage, got my eyes front all of them
Few attended MSU, others U of M
Some rep the D, Flint, East Lansing
Hi, my name's Magic, wanna be my Cookie Johnson?
After spot Saint Andrew's, we drinkin' and a-dancin'
Somethin' 'bout the drizz that just seems so enchantin'
One was Juanita, twins named Salita
Fell in love with Tribe when they first heard "Bonita"
Finally figured out why they were bangin', no doubt
But what made them stand out where they would be girl-ed out
As I watched Salita hard, I watched Juanita even harder
Door-knockin' earring, plus her dookie rope was larger
Can say Slick Rick, Daddy Kane, and LL
Fifty-four eleven Spandex, yeah, well
Some MC like word-for-word Nases, ain't hard to tell
She says, "Come visit me at school, I wanna get to know you well"

[Chorus: Lyric Jones]
So I been curious about the reasons
That people come in life, that different seasons (Over and over again)
After all these years went by, still been on my mind (After all these years went by)
Wish I can run it back again one time, one time
[Verse 3: Phife Dawg & Lyric Jones]
I left for tour a few weeks, we stayed in contact
Made a few calls, but shorty didn't chirp back
Had a show at Sac State, ran into her sister
Gave her a hug, on her cheek, I kissed her
Was still with twin, called her, but no callback
Said Juanita passed, Christmas Eve, fuckin' carjacked?
I stood frozen, still consoled her sister
Damn, what I'd do just to kiss her
I said, a n***a stood frozen, still consoled her sister
Damn, what I'd do just to kiss her (Just to kiss)

[Chorus: Lyric Jones]
So I been curious about the reasons
That people come in life, that different seasons (Over and over again)

[Interlude: Phife Dawg & Lyric Jones]
Uh, yeah
Check it, what?
One, two, three, four
As the sun (Uh, Phife)
Makes its way up in the— (No, no)
What? No?
Let the professional do it

[Verse 4: Lyric Jones]
As the sun
Makes its way up in the clouds
Rays of light show us how
Ain't no coincidences
I wish I could run it back, run it back again
[Outro: Phife Dawg]
N***a, that ain't how it go
October 4th, 2008
Yo, what's up? You ready?
Yeah, no doubt, let me check my messages right quick
Ayo, the Jets win last night?
Hey, Malik, this Nequisha, get well soon, we love you down here in VA, bye
Thanks, doc, 'preciate it
Yo, what up, Phife? This is Michael Rapaport, man
Yo, I'm checking in on you, man
Seeing how you doing after this surgery, man (Did they win?)
How you feeling, man? (Did the Eagles win?)
How's that kidney doing, man?
Yo, time for you to get your shit together, man, to come back (Word)
On some Rocky 2 shit
Alright?
Yo, hit me, man
Funky diabetic with the brand new kidney
Hi, boo, it's me
I'm here at home recuperating, waiting for you to come home (Yo, come here and take me straight to the studio)
So hurry up and get home (Don't say shit)
Stop throwing IV poles and giving the nurses trouble (Word up, she's cray)
Hi, dear, this is mom (Uh-oh, it's moms)
I was hoping to get to talk to you, you know
But I figured that maybe you're sleeping or something
But think positive
Pray to that kidney, praise that kidney (Sleep? I'm out of here)
Thank it for being in your body
Wish it well
