Pimp C, Z-Ro, Tanya Herron - I Miss You lyrics

Huh! (I miss you, I'm talkin to you baaabbbyyy)
Dedicated to everybody that
Lost somebody knalmtalkinbout?
(I miss yoouuu)
Knalmsayin (I miss youu, I'm talkin to you baaabbbyyy, I miss you)
Gotta give 'em they flowers
While they living knalmsayin
'Cause ain't nothin promised, one
Day you here, the next day you gone
For real

Uhh! A lotta shit done changed
Dope man since you been gone
I did a whole lotta good, I did a lotta wrong
I made a whole lotta change
I wrote a lotta songs sometimes I felt weak
Most times I stood up strong
Yeah I got three kids now, Natasha had a son
We ain't together no more
I guess we was just too young
To even try to start a
Family in the first place
But, I get happy every time
I look into his face
Ever since you went away
Man it's been hard for me
Didn't know 'til you died
How much you meant to me
All the time and the patience you put into me
You showed me how to be the man
That I was meant to be
Taught me how to play music
And 'bout the melody and to this day
I remember what you was tellin me
You told me, "Son
Most of this rap shit is just noise"
"But, if you put some music in it
You'll get rich boy"
That's why I stay up in the studio
Up all night i fuck with live musicians to
Get the groove right yeah I'ma rap star now
Yeah you could say that
'Cause now my walls is filled
With gold and grey plaques
Doin shows and videos and makin big stacks
But, if it would bring you back
I would trade all that
I wanna thank ya for everything
That you did for me
I'm on my knees praying to
God that you hearing me

(O-o-o ohhh yeeaahhh) I miss you
I'm talkin to you baaabbbyyy i miss you
(you know that I miss, I'm missing you)
I miss you
(ooohhhh) , I'm talkin to you baaabbbyyy
I miss you harmonizing

I know you watch me up there
And it's gettin hard for me
When you get a chance
Put a good word into the Lord for me
I been got caught up, got sent to the pen
I let ya down, i'm in a place I know you
Never thought you see me in
But all these things is
Happening for a reason
I guess God saved my life and put
Me up to see another season
And all my so-called friends don't
Even write to me
They don't go check on my momma
Don't send no price to me
I'm tryna raise my kids from a penitentiary
Stayin on my knees
Praying they don't grow up to be like me
Do you remember when my parents
Thing ain't worked out?
You let me and my momma
Come live in yo' house
Knowin already you had too
Many people livin wit'cha
You always treated me special
I never could forget cha
Cook me breakfast and lunch
And dinner everyday you wiped my tears away
Tried to explain why my life
Had to be this way always gave me the real
You never bullshit me
I wish I woulda said thank you
When you was here with me
My uncle miss ya and I know
You know his heart is blue
But he ain't the only one 'cause
Annie I miss you too

A house is not a house if
Ain't nobody livin in it
Tell me why black life isn't life
Unless there's prison in it
General population of super cell
Or Johnny or some Jack Man
Powdered coffee, peppermint, peach cool offs
But a paint I wish I had that
And even more than my freedom
I wish I had somethin else
I would give back everything
I've accomplished 'fore
This one thang and nothin else
I ain't talkin about a relationship 'cause
Broads bring too much drama (drama)
I'd even pass the chance to be a millionaire
If I could hug and kiss my momma (momma)
I remember like it was yesterday
Although I was six years old
"Momma what's wrong, wake up
Wake up! Why yo' forehead hot
And yo' hands so cold?"
"Who all these people up in our room?
Auntie tell 'em put my momma down!"
I didn't understand what was goin on
But it felt wrong 'cause so
Many people came around
I didn't have to go to school that day
(that day) , and everybody was buyin me shit
(buyin me shit)
Tellin me everythang was alright but they
Was sad and cryin and shit
Ain't that a bitch? My momma
Ain't never came back
I wish I could hug and kiss her
Even though Auntie and Grandma
Dorothy raised me right, i still miss her
