Silkk the Shocker, C-Murder, Master P - Why My Homie lyrics

Damn i never thought I'd be wearin a suit
And tie so many times a year, but
Like Bone said, to all my homies ain't
Here, see ya in the crossroads, fool

Imagine this, me dressed in all black
At a funeral strapped with a chrome gat
Who died P, I guess it was my homie, black
Somebody rolled up and shot him in the back
It was sad, my homie took a damn fall
Sort of like the TLC video, "Waterfalls"
But this was the real deal
This ain't no movie
Niggas drove up and blasted my
Homie with a oozie
Now me and Silkk got to ride
After the funeral cause it's sad on my side
Cause in the ghetto, it's one big black moon
I mean people dyin everyday
We all are doomed
My mama look at me and say, "Boy
Watch yoself!" but I can't trip, mama
Cause I live for myself
And if I die on the streets
Then it's my time to go
But if I live to see another day
Another funeral
It's sad, I look into they eyes
Damn, everybody's got to die
But one day, I guess we gon to wake up
When they puttin me in that black truck
It could be you, it could be her
But in the end everybody gets did up
Cause in the ghetto everybody
Live like Jesse James
I still question God for callin my homie name

Why my homie had to die?
Now somebody mama gonna cry

Now when my grandfather died, I was like 5
It never really touched me much
But seein my brother layin dead on
Floor really kinda fked me up
I never thought he could be here
Then he could be gone
I never thought the day he left the
House he wouldn't be comin back home
I wonder when it's yo time to go
Who gon protect you
See someone died in my family
Didn't even much affect you
I wonder why my homie died
At such a young age
I wonder why my homie death
Didn't make the front page
Cause it's a trip
And life ain't even worth to live
See ya gotta watch out for all us killa kids
Belive me
I be a youngsta tryin to spit the game
But it's a damn shame
All of the shit done changed
Through all the strivin and strugglin
I try to stay hard
But look at Mr president in the
White House tryin to play God
Put us all in one big ole boat
They call it housin projects
I call it one big ghetto

Damn looks like the Statue
Of Liberty is cryin
I guess that mean the whole
World is fkin dyin

Why my homie had to die?
Now somebody mama gonna cry
