Woodie - Blackbird R.i.p Lyrics
Yeah this one for my boy BlackbirdThis your boy Woodie homieStill down here struggling dogBe there in a minuteIt's me, Lil' Los, Shadow, Lou-e-LouLil' bird in this mutha*****a tooThis dedicated to you homieBlackbird![Verse 1: Woodie]Do you remember when I bought the seventy-five caprice glasshouseI came back to the Yoc after pullin' eight hundred cash outWe took it to my pops shop... And sanded it downGot it sprayed apple green, we sixteen through the townThat was when the click down-n-dirty album just droppedAnd that Mr. flamboyant made them by 9's knockWe were dippin' so hard we had the wheel comin' off the groundTryin' to peel every notch in townWhile attemptin' to keep the yoc locked downAny scraps we ran across we hopped out and got downDrinkin' forties, smokin' bammer, earnin' stripes was our lifeBuyin' any strap we could, what good was a knife?We was tryin' ta take 'em all out the gameAnd at the same time have the hoes callin' our nameWe were naive and young... Maybe even dumbBut there's nothin' like the feelin' when the respect comeCause many recognized we got down to businessAnd very capable of leavin' enemies wigs splitWe was kids... showin' up to school the next dayLike nothin' happened, it's all part of life in the bay... heyI guess our fathers bred some killazBut I'm still here and you're gone and I don't feel aMutha*****in' thang of that, I wanna bring it backBlackbird! I wish I could bring ya back[Chorus: Woodie]Blackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much love,Amongst any homeboyz that now rest aboveBlackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much loveAmongst any homeboyz that now rest above[Verse 2: Lil' Los]This is dedicated to my homie that never made itI reminisce and miss you even more when I'm fadedYou were always hated and misunderstoodJust a down mutha*****a that was reppin' his hoodI wish you could come back like you did that one timeWhen you walked up all good it nearly blew my mindAs I rewind and think about that love you showedEspecially when you let me know it's hard to let you goI know for sure you're in a better place restin' in peaceWith that struggle off your faceAin't nothin' gonna replace the times we all hadKickin' it in the alley drinkin' liquor smokin' mary sacsIt really don't matter man for what you didI got your back 'till this dayI gives a ***** what they saySend my love to RayI know he's up there hearin' thisI bet your in the studio next to me feelin' thisI wish I could get rid of this feelin' that I gotWhen I smash thru the Yoc with your image in my knotTurn my back I will notWill forever be bound givin' love to my homiePourin' liquor on the groundAlways like a big brother protected me in the streetsA homie like no otherWas always real when he speakedSoon it'll be time for me so I'll see you laterGod bless rest in peace man and ***** these haters![Chorus: Woodie]Blackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much loveAmongst any homeboyz that now rest aboveBlackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much loveAmongst any homeboyz that now rest above[Verse 3: Shadow]I'm fosho of what I know my folks got murdered by the popoThey tip-toed to unload exposed and cover up in cocoCount me so don't doubt me cause up in my townThere their ain't no cush and plantin' bushes the po's is crookedYou'll see me creepin' up out of the bushesLook at the pain imposed, we lost Big LosI was gone awhile but they hit homeNever thought it'd get so shadyLost the babies in our range is goneBut remains are all but memories recollections and reflectionsI can move all of usThat h is on our gauge is strapped trade by 7's smithin' westIt's nothing too expensive cause we didn't have scratchBut we had each others backNow I'm like damn man what happened to that?I miss the times when we would ride times side by side before Los diedI cried that night in the park but in my heart and mind you still aliveSo keep ridin' it's BlackbirdCause you never been no coward puttin' that phat work on you rivalsKeepin' the title 'till it spiral outBut now nothing to say wanna go back erase the gameChange his fate for thangs attained insaneLive it up in the strange and I remain to be the same old gYou'll always see up in these streets with heat beneath the seat four g'sI'm the creep no peace fire free and breezeRemember this underclubbin' never tendin' or pretendin'No surrender northern memberCallin' the Blackbird look at the yappersLet's go back let's reminisceThe click was thick but few were g's thoughYou were ridin' hitless shoutin' at *****es not *****in' P.N.C.Hoes was creepin' up at the high you would denyWe hittin' switches unless you would we with youSo to you this is the tribute[Chorus: Woodie]Blackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much loveAmongst any homeboyz that now rest aboveBlackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much loveAmongst any homeboyz that now rest above[Verse 4: Lou-e-Lou]That sweat hit my forehead feel it trickle thru my skinHoldin' in my ghetto tearsBlackbird let's remember gettin' drunk in H when BNT was aroundCuttin' prices on the you know cars trafficin' it downBut then when I did it you felt like we spittedCause I was lost in that light and really was kickin'My bad I was gone in that fast pace one track mindLift needed I would ride then a drop I would dieWhen that sucka pulled a strap I snatched the strap out his handYou shook like a pitt and put yo hands on the manNow that I'm thinkin' it's good that you did itCause as paper was showin' that thang'n was snitchin'I'm grown now homie no more foolish behaviorI'm the gent laced up with a 6th sense of a playerI'm taking care of my daughter cause I don't need a fatherAll that bullshit before this nigga don't botherStill I'm northern Cali red caught a bud to their headTryna get ahead or give a finger to the fedsCan I drink it to heaven have mercy on our sinsYou understand and have compassionFor the bod amongst friends[Speaking: all]Rest in peace playboyWe all love you homieI'll never forget you LosGot a good game out homieBut for that I'll be witchu right nowWithout a second thought[Chorus: Woodie]Blackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much loveAmongst any homeboyz that now rest aboveBlackbird dedicated his life to the gameSo if you're Norteno, remember his name,Carlos Joseph Ramirez, a soldier much loveAmongst any homeboyz that now rest above
