Lyrics
0:00Lost Somebody - A Tribe Called Quest
0:22Yeah Phife for your life
0:28Now
0:29Now in the time when niggas wasn't supposed to be born
0:32Best of us are left for dead in cities that looks war-torn
0:34Vietnam going wrong heroin going strong
0:37Neighbors would whoop that bad a**
0:38Just for running through their lawn
0:40Walt met Cheryl Cheryl met Walt
0:42Trinidadian love sprouting through the asphalt
0:44Love was consummated and the angels registrated
0:47Two were to be born but only one of 'em made it
0:50Inside a cloud of sorrow a silver lining and joy
0:52It's a bouncing baby boy a king's name they would employ
0:55And before he even squeaks it's decided it's Malik
0:57Now give him hope give him care
0:59Raise him while his grandma there
1:00Watch out momma if you stare
1:02Light brown eyes'll keep you there
1:04Let's progress the story just a little bit
1:05Malik I would treat you like little brother that would give you fits
1:08Sometimes overbearing though I thought it was for your benefit
1:10Despite all the spats and shits and ematically documented
1:13The one thing I appreciate you and I we never pretended
1:16Rhymes we would write it out hard times fight it out
1:18Gave grace face to face made it right
1:20And now you riding out out out out damn
1:23Have you ever loved somebody
1:27Phife dawg man
1:28Way before you
1:30Bow wow woof woof
1:31Got to dream
1:32Never thought that I would be ever writing this song
1:34Hold friends tight never know when those people are gone
1:37So so beautiful opined indisputable
1:39Heart of a largest lion trapped inside the little dude
1:42Took me quick to granny house now we eat the curry food
1:45Talking hopes dreams plans leak ice never scared
1:47Brand new pair of Nike Airs avenue of sairs
1:50Mailbox mayors all our rhymes was written there
1:52A ni**a wanna battle you know Phifey didn't care
1:55Jarobi with the beat into new a** we tear
1:58I'mma flash forward well took a trip to ATL
2:00Cooking in the kitchen making sure my ni**a eating well
2:03Wedding in Tobago you know exactly where I'm at
2:05Standing on the side of black Malik Izaak
2:07Loved somebody
2:10Way before you got to dream
2:15No more crying he's in sunshine
2:20He's alright now see his wings
2:25Have you ever loved somebody
