After all the years we been down
We family ain't a damn thing changed, unless it's you
And homies in the hood only see me on the tube
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
So close, almost on some Bonnie and Clyde shit
So I came out I woulda killed a nigga first
How come we don't even talk no more?
Ain't no way no how, this bullshit can't be true
Must've hurt you pride or somethin'
And you don't even call no more?
Like my finger get to snappin and 'poof' it just happen
Ain't no way no how, this bullshit can't be true
Forever real intelligence thats forever till the end
Ain't no way no how, this bullshit can't be true
And you don't even call no more?
'Cuz you went off at the mouth with people like you wanted with me
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grape-vine we even beefin' now
Fools I used to rap with all expect magic
As much as your pride tries to hide it
When all I tried to do was show your bitch was shifty
And I heard it through the grape-vine we even beefin' now
Don't hate the game or the player
In your eyes is the look of resentment
On my own album with a deal but shit got worse
And a bucket to catch every tear I cried inside it
We grew up, grew apart, as time went by us, then I blew up
We don't barely keep in touch at all
And you don't even call no more?
And you don't even call no more?
How come, when you talk its with bitter respite?
Ain't no way no how, this bullshit can't be true
But Proof is just actin' out the part he was thrown
But I am really you friend, I'm just trying to tell you the truth
And how come, it's my fault for what you did with your life?
Like y'all was husband and wife or somethin'
A tissue to wipe my eyes,
Now I feel the vibe I just cant describe it
Sometimes I just wanna know why is it that you succumb to yours?
Ain't wastin' my times with these snakes in disguise
And every time I go to hear you and play you look away
Comin' out of the bar with her stumblin' half drunk
It was my dream at first to be on spittin' a verse
See the devil in your grin since the ghetto we been friends
We barely embrace, you can't even look me in my face
Now we actin' like I gotta live only for the block
I can sense it, and I don't like it
I told you don't get involved wit her, you was smokin' the chron with her
But you would pull a talk with her and tell her she was the shit
Shady made it so my baby's ain't starvin' at home
You actin' like I ain't ya man and lyin' like she can't be loose
We were so young, so full of life and vivrance side by side
Before I let him disrespect me and check me over some worst
I keep the hatred in your eyes and the Satan in your lies
How come we don't even talk no more?
Some bitch that I wasn't with I would hit her then quit
We don't barely keep in touch at all
When Ronnie died you was right by my side with a shoulder to cry on
We don't barely keep in touch at all
We family ain't a damn thing changed, unless it's you
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
We don't barely keep in touch at all
You even had the same type of childhood I did
Your cold to touch it's just like ice
How come we don't even talk no more?
How come we don't even talk no more?
The one that is changing is you
After all the years we been down
To both yours and mine surprises
And mine I survived it, you ran the streets, I 9 to 5'd it
So they gossip on the porch get to speakin' all rude
After all the years we been down
And I heard it through the grape-vine we even beefin' now
But me catchin' her fuckin' other niggers
We family ain't a damn thing changed, unless it's you
And I heard it through the grape-vine we even beefin' now
Wherever you was ridin' I went
After all the years we been down
And ever since the fans and all the shit that I produced
Its gettin' only at the top 'cuz my homie had to stop
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
