What Happened

We was just playin' in the Ave the other day

I never thought I'd be makin' this song

This shit's crazy but look

I don't even know where to start but

When I first met you all you talked about was Wu-Tang movement

Then I introduced you to this Cocaine Muzik

And every other day you expressed your love for Ray

And your love for Ye then we used to debate

'Bout how your partners in the industry thought I still sold yay

We were both geeked up by doin' the deal with Jay

I got my first number one and you was on the run with me

Never want to leave the country if I can't take my gun with me

You weren't with the gangster shit but yet you still hung with me

Next time I go to Disney I'ma take your son with me

First we went to London then we went to Dubai

You was off the Hen I was smokin' I got too high

Damn time flies by

It's like I knew your whole lifetime

We accomplished so much shit

We talked about so much shit

We done so much shit like

You know me I'm a stubborn motherf**ker

Like I ain't listen to nobody

I'm just movin' how I'm movin' and like

You were always just the nigga to get through to me

I don even know like how you was able to do it like

Like with the whole shit about

They were tryna get me to go for years and years

And I ain't give a f**k how my money was I just

I weren't movin' like that 'cause

All my niggas convicted felons

I couldn't get the straps across the motherf**kin' customs

I just can't move like that bro you know what I mean

Callin' me late at night like

You really need to do this for your career this made it

Be on the biggest record in Europe right now

And I'm still like

F**k it you know what I mean like I wasn't even trippin'

And you're like

Bro we gotta go man we gotta go international we gotta

I'm like

Man look bruh I ain't f**kin' with it bruh you know what I'm sayin'

I called you back that same night like

We goin' to London

We used to walk inside the office give them people hell

I knew you was loyal when your partner went to jail

You never missed a court date you stayed on the lawyer

Gonna miss you he was really for you

Use to tell me to my face when I was full of shit

I ain't tryin' to win I'll do some other shit

I respect you for that more than you'll ever know

I had issues with niggas you told me

Let it go

You helped me realize I was bigger than just a street nigga

Took your advice got security but I still keep my pistols though yeah

Took your advice got security but I still keep the pistols though

See like I remember we could go back and back and forward about

Man you get too much money to be like

Ridin' round with all these crazy ass guns and

I understand them young niggas and

I understand y'all come from a certain life

But if you wanna go to that next level like

You gotta act like it

I ain't gon' lie like that shit just go through one ear

And out the other ear

'Cause I'm just from that culture homie

Like where I just don't see nobody protectin' me like me

These young niggas with me gon' die with me but

Like I'ma die with them and this understood so

I just always felt like that's that security we our own security

You told me I'm still a superstar but that nigga crazy

You say he's amazin'

We both done f**ked up 'bout Snootie we had a plan for him

We know he had his little issue but we were prayin' for him

I remember you called me excited sayin' you had talked to Ye

I can't lie I was geeked I'm like

What he say

You was on some shit like

My guys they wanna work with you

I ain't even gonna front you had told me

All the Ye stories and shit

And we had been working together like probably

A year and a half now like

I was like

Man I don't really know if you f**k with Ye like that

You know what I'm sayin' I'm just bein' G

And you like

No for real like he wanna work with you

I'm like

Tomorrow

Nigga shit was so crazy 'cause you know I don't even like flyin'

Like I would jump on a motherf**kin' Southwest flight

Like nigga sittin' way in the back

Me I don't give a f**k nigga like

We was on a first thing smokin' nigga to L.A.

We're gonna work with Kanye

That shit was crazy

We walked into the studio and nigga was eatin' pot pie and chicken and shit

He was just a cool aired nigga like I just

Immediately screamin' and droppin' joint after joint after joint after joint

And I ain't give a f**k was it was gon' be on

If it was gon' be on anything and it was just

I always wanted to work with Ye and you knew it

It was crazy

Now I told you I want to sound with Jay and you asked me why

You didn't really feel this shit but you was down to ride

Then we went up to the office you had a different view

And you were rushin' me to sign like the shit was you crazy

Was your man and shit 'cause you always talked about him

You remember we sat down in the room with Jay

And that nigga was just chattin' some real shit to us

We were holdin' out the pose on some G shit though

We say I'm G you know what I'm sayin'

We get money too you feel me

When we left the office we were like

Damn

I mean nigga was just amazed at like

Niggas that grew up together and built an empire together

And I was really motivated by that

That day I told you that was how I wanted me

And my brothers to be and me and my niggas to be

And then we went to this little private party remember that shit

Jay got to them to pop the Ace in it

That shit spilled all on the table and shit

I remember you pulled me to the side

You were like

I've been in the game a long time

This is like the very very first time

I've felt like an artist

You were tellin' me like you felt like an artist

You were like

Nigga I'll sign the contract right now if they break that motherf**ker out

Damn if I knew talkin' to you was my last time

The other night it wouldn't have been about no CM9

I would have let you know I value your participation

I would have thanked you for your patience and your conversations

No you weren't forced to question God and you were somewhere better

But we were supposed to get rich and gon' retire together

What happened

I don't know

How can I go on

Continue to stay strong

Continue to pray hard

Keep singing your name

It was many nights like this

When I could call you

And you could pick the phone up

'Cause you was my partner

And you was there for number one records

And I can't thank you enough
