Song:
Puff Daddy "I'll be missing you"
Seems like yesterday we used to rock the show
I laced the track, you locked the flow
So far from hanging on the block for dough
Notorious, they got to know that
Life ain't always what it seem to be
Words can't express what you mean to me
Even though you're gone, we still a team
Through your family, I'll fulfill your dream
In the future, can't wait to see
If you open up the gates for me
Reminisce some time, the night they took my friend
Try to black it out, but it plays again
When it's real, feelings hard to conceal
Can't imagine all the pain
Give anything to hear half your breath
I know you still living your life, after death
I feel

Every step I take, every move I make
Every single day, every time I pray
I'll be missing you
Thinking of the days, when you went away
What a life to take, what a bond to break
I'll be missing you

I miss you Big
It's kinda hard with you not around
Know you in heaven smiling down
Watching us while we pray for you
Until the day we meet again
In my heart is where
I'll keep you friend
Memories give me the strength I need to proceed
Strength I need to believe
My thoughts Big I just can't define
Wish I could turn back the hands of time
Us in the 6, shop for new clothes and kicks
You and me taking flicks
Making hits, stages they receive you on
I still can't believe you're gone
Give anything to hear half your breath
I know you still living you're life, after death
