KRS-One - Good Bye lyrics
[KRS-One - Good Bye lyrics]
Yeah, yeah, let's switch the flow up a little
Word bring the love back, here we go
You ever lost somebody
A member of your party
Your daddy maybe mommy
For them there was no copy
Just know that we all asleep
Pray to the lord my Soul will keep
Life is a dream no need to weep
God's gonna wake us up from sleep
Every night we die, we practice for death
Everytime we sleep we say goodbye
But I, still can't get over the fact
That my best friend's awake and not
Comin back
So as the tears tears roll from my eyes
Uhh, uhh, I never got a chance to say
Goodbye! Trouble MC, Scott LaRock, Paul Sea
Doctor Rock
Mastadon, Trouble T-Roy, Aaliyah, Cowboy
Sugar Shaft, Eazy-E got to say goodbye
Yeah bring the love back, bring the love back
When you wake up, then you'll know
What was up
You won't live, so corrupt, only love
You'll take up all the chasin and rushin
Impatience and fussin
The racin for somethin the hatin and
Frontin is makin you NOTHIN
So, die before you die so when
You die you don't die
You got to die before you die so
When you die you don't die
You got to die to all the world
All the guys and the girls
You got to die to lovin money
And them diamonds and pearls
So as the tears (tears roll from my eyes
I never got a chance to say to y'all
Goodbye! Prince Messiah, Bigga B, Freaky Tah
BIG big Pun, Mercury, June Bug, Buffy
2Pac, Darryl C got to say goodbye
Bring the love back, bring
The love back, uhh, hip-hop
So remember when they die
They have only woke up
It's our wants and our needs
That be chokin us up
And I want and I need and I want and I need
Yo, there was a time when
Hip-hop was on our mind
It wasn't about no crime, just reality rhymes
If you battled me fine
But in the end we reclined
With a bottle of wine
MC's the ORIGINAL kind but
Why did you stray hip-hop
Why did you stray hip-hop
Why did you stray hip-hop!
Why did you stray bring the love back
Why did you stray bring the love back
Why did you stray Why did you stray
Why did you stray rise up y'all
Why did you stray remember
Where you came from
Why did you stray bring the love back
Why did you stray
Word bring the love back, here we go
You ever lost somebody
A member of your party
Your daddy maybe mommy
For them there was no copy
Just know that we all asleep
Pray to the lord my Soul will keep
Life is a dream no need to weep
God's gonna wake us up from sleep
Every night we die, we practice for death
Everytime we sleep we say goodbye
But I, still can't get over the fact
That my best friend's awake and not
