Lost Somebody (Explicit)

Written by：Kamaal Fareed

Yeah Phife for your life

Now

Now in the time when niggas wasn't supposed to be born

Best of us are left for dead in cities that looks war-torn

Vietnam going wrong h****n going strong

Neighbors would whoop that bad a**

Just for running through their lawn

Walt met Cheryl Cheryl met Walt

Trinidadian love sprouting through the asphalt

Love was consummated and the angels registrated

Two were to be born but only one of 'em made it

Inside a cloud of sorrow a silver lining and joy

It's a bouncing baby boy a king's name they would employ

And before he even squeaks it's decided it's Malik

Now give him hope give him care

Raise him while his grandma there

Watch out momma if you stare

Light brown eyes'll keep you there

Let's progress the story just a little bit

Malik I would treat you like little brother that would give you fits

Sometimes overbearing though I thought it was for your benefit

Despite all the spats and shits and ematically documented

The one thing I appreciate you and I we never pretended

Rhymes we would write it out hard times fight it out

Gave grace face to face made it right

And now you riding out out out out damn

Have you ever loved somebody

Phife dawg man

Way before you

Bow wow woof woof

Got to dream

Never thought that I would be ever writing this song

Hold friends tight never know when those people are gone

So so beautiful opined indisputable

Heart of a largest lion trapped inside the little dude

Took me quick to granny house now we eat the curry food

Talking hopes dreams plans leak ice never scared

Brand new pair of Nike Airs avenue of sairs

Mailbox mayors all our rhymes was written there

A ni**a wanna battle you know Phifey didn't care

Jarobi with the beat into new a** we tear

I'mma flash forward well took a trip to ATL

Cooking in the kitchen making sure my ni**a eating well

Wedding in Tobago you know exactly where I'm at

Standing on the side of black Malik Izaak

Loved somebody

Way before you got to dream

No more crying he's in sunshine

He's alright now see his wings

Have you ever loved somebody

Way before you got to dream

No more crying he's in sunshine

He's alright now see his wings

Have you ever loved somebody

Way before you got to dream

No more crying he's in sunshine

He's alright now see his wings

Have you ever loved somebody

Way before you got to dream

No more crying
