Could've been one of the best, yes
Me and twin rappin' like some vets
And the kid is only 13, Big homie was 14 or 15
Depending on the time check
Lookin' for time to rap stressed
Thinkin' about summer school, never failed a class before
Gwinnett to Fulton, politics switch, guess it was my time to go
Never a stupid nigga, but I failed to work hard
I'm smarter than everybody in this bitch fuck the humble shit
I was more focused on my lyrics, my name Apollo the Don
I was honest before, Antetokunmpo, a Greek God in my prime
And I was good at everything, but somethin bout the rappin' stuck
Education hit the back burner, cause I ain't give a fuck
Ironic, I hated literature, now I'm writin poems
It's a letter for who has some shit to say
Never was gonna give it up to nobody, not even God
The Lord, my savior, could take my dream away, that's why I'm here today
Now I'm dottin' my T's, and I'm crossin' my I's
Can't take the lies, why the fuck you had to take my friends away, I ask God
Never understood heaven or hell, what's the point of life
Get y'all tatted on my sleeves, forever immortalized
Startin' my senior year, very rough, goddamn, in my head I'm thinkin' what the fuck
Before anything right before my junior year ended, lost Trent
That's when I really lost hope, got my first job
Needed to make a buck, bought me a microphone
Made a project, we goin' up, washin' dishes on the clock
Had my phone blowin' up, but it was dead before I made it out
I'm vibin' on the walk home, finna celebrate my lil' sister's 16
Couldn't get to Carbone, I tried to call home
Tell 'em I'm on the way, I'm clocked out
Said peace to everyone in the bar before I punched out
Got home, somethin' in the room didn't feel right
Mama dropped the phone and told me that my cousin was gone
I ain't never cried before, but it's goin' on six years
I swear when I touched the black casket, I almost dropped tears
I swore since that day, it's For Dre, we goin' up
I went from Kamren to watch over the ones you once loved
Now it's just KT and I'm under the influence of OneLuv
Blood couldn't make us any closer, almost cried, cuz
But I stayed strong, I know you watchin' over me
So I'ma get mine before I meet y'all again, I'm takin' over, G
Real niggas don't die, legends don't die
Real niggas don't die, so the legends don't die
Niggas don't die, real niggas don't die
And the legends never die, real niggas don't die
And the legends never
Look, uh, got to the age of 18, I quit rappin'
Cuz I was too anxious and I was tired of the disrespect
I never understood how your peers find it so hard to show support
But what do they owe to you? Make your next move
Make them regret their decision to not invest in your stock
Luv the movement for me today, I'ma create my own plot
The Glock black, but the red beam like the kettle in pot
Sit down and just watch, a wordsmith , rappin' in knots
Keep talkin', don't switch up, don't show no remorse
Cuz remember in Janess, you didn't believe in the boy
Now I believe in myself to move freely on this course
At the Sweet Aubrun Fest, I needed you to perform
I needed you, you cut me deep and now I'm bleedin' out
Thinkin' bout how he never wanted me around for the count
Then he doubled down on it, I lost a true friend
Maybe one day in our life we could make amends
But I'm young today, so I gotta move on with or without
Cuz if I sit around and mope, I'ma just fall in the drought
And I ain't fuckin' up nothin', I'm choosin' music over you
So if I never get a chance to say it to you, I thank you
Sincerely, Luv
