Chorus:
A thug changes and Love Changes and best friends become strangers

1st Verse:
Back in the day I had ways that I would deal with dilemmas
The vendettas and grudges always had me tuckin barettas
I was the cat usually dressed in black in the back of a club
ready to scat them rats and that’s a fact no love
I was the alpha male, and still am to a degree,
the only difference now is I am when I need to be
I had a lot to prove to dudes that were lookin and mugging
always thuggin to true form when it came to trigga tuggin - listen,
Im speaking bio, nonfiction, read your last benediction
At the funeral home with you in a prone positions
..But that’s the past… I changed from the fast lane,
To the shoulder, when I got older and wise
Those the innocent eyes of my children gave me revelations
Had to reevaluate my pride in situations
don’t get me wrong, im not the one to test,
But let it be known son, I could really care less

Chorus

Now in this cold cold world you were the fire that burned,
the smile I learned and every single place that I turned
when situations were elevated and I couldn’t breathe,
asphyxiated from life’s stresses when powers that be
got me feeling locked down like penitentiary thoughts
insanity plots, scheming for whatever could stop the
pain time and again you were the hug that I needed
emotionally defeated but only you seemed to beat it
with your words of affection and how you looked in my eyes,
I visualized a better life, with you as my wife,
the piece of the puzzle that I had finally found
the angel sent to be my keeper midst the sins of this town
but then the town seemed to pull you into ways of the world
I had to question the association of me and my girl
Priorities lost and now I’m back in the cold
Perfection is a fallacy, let it be told

Chorus

You were the brother from another mother all the time we said it
And anytime you had a problem I’d be there to dead it,
And anytime I had a problem you’d be there to dead it,
Forget it, we were like same person embedded
in one mind at one time partners in crime partners in wealth
through thick or thin, sickness or health
And then you moved away and left me alone,
i maintained cause we always stayed connected by phone
but then the phone calls stopped and your number was changed
I never heard back and that was just strange
I got sick thinking something might’ve taken my dog,
But then you moved back to vegas and gave me a call,
You were a whole different person, I don’t understand
What could have happened to the cat that I thought was my man
You passed me on the street as if we were strangers
as the world keeps spinnin, I guess everything changes

Chorus
