Noah

(album: ...For The Kids - 2001)

We like, fuck a hush on the bus that rush
acting mad dumb singing bum-stiggedy bump
plus we was mad young, I remember acting a fool
we laughing at the monkeys fucking at that park zoo
yo it was crazy cool raising hell at West Street school
forget what the teacher said, yo, we made our own rules
remember back in the day carving names in desks
not even knowing six years later I would see your death
we was just little kids doing childish shit
til we got to middle school and got wild and shit
and that's when we started chasing girls
not even thinking about grades
we was in a new world, our visions started to fade
we was still homeboys acting out and such
even though we didn't hang out as much

I told myself I'd never cry
I know, I know know why
I never even said goodbye
but now I'm asking myself why
'cause I know, I know know why
I never even said goodbye

And now we in the High School
smart fish in the lake
we study trying to keep it real
staying far from the fake
its funny how the first month of school started to fly
before I knew it your life was
gone in the blink of an eye
and now I'm stuck in denial
this shit can't be

God tell me why you had to take Noah from me
Why the fuck you had to go and take Noah from me?

I told myself I'd never cry
I know, I know know why
I never even said goodbye
but now I'm asking myself why
'cause I know, I know know why
I never even said goodbye

School was crazy there the next day
they didn't think I would last
seeing phoney bitches trying to get the fuck out of class
now I tried to play "hard" until I lost my cool
that's when I ran to a stall to shed a tear or two
or three or four, I broke down and cried puddles
now everytime I see your picture, my anger doubles
and everytime I see your picture, my anger doubles

I told myself I'd never cry
I know, I know know why
I never even said goodbye
and now I'm asking myself why
'cause I know, I know know why
I never even said goodbye
