Lyrics

0:12Maybe you died cuz everybody ask me where you at
0:16I try to channel you in hopes that I could stare you back
0:20But its like every intersection we just missed each other
0:22You got your fans waitin tell me you ain't 6 feet under
0:27And tell me that you coming back that you just to a break
0:30Maybe I blamed you for everything that was my mistake
0:32In hindsight I loved your rawness and I loved your edge
0:37Cuz it was you who talked me down from jumpin off the ledge
0:40Your earings bamboo your long nails too
0:44Your BMW everytime you came through
0:48You was the braveheart
0:49You stole wayne heart
0:51You never switched it up
0:53You played the same part
0:55But I needed to grow
0:56And I needed to know
0:58That there were somethings inside of me that I need to show
1:01So I just deaded you
1:02Left you in all black
1:05But damn old nicki
1:06Please call back
1:07You told me you'd come when I needed you
1:14And you said it so sweetly I really knew
1:21But I'm standing here calling I can't see you
1:28But I am holding you holding you holding you to that
1:32Yo did I chase the glitz and glamour
1:37Money fame and power
1:39Cuz if so that will forever go down my lamest hour
1:43I shoulda kept you with me gettin at them nameless cowards
1:46There was no match for you couldn't defeat your prowess
1:49I had to make them changes I hope you understood
1:52You see for every bad I did a ton of good
1:56But you was underground and I was mainstream
1:58I live the life now that we would daydream
2:02My only wish is you come enjoy it with me
2:06Get on them conference calls go meet them lawyers with me
2:09The money came yea tripled and quadrupled it
2:12But I still miss us when we was on some stupid shit
2:16But its still f**k the media
2:19They ridiculed you never believed in ya
2:24They just deaded you
2:26But dear old nicki
2:30You told me you'd come when I needed you
2:36But I am holding you holding you holding you to that
2:58And yes I'm holdin you holdin you holdin you
3:01Oh yes I'm holdin you holdin you holdin you
3:07To that
Maybe you died cuz everybody ask me where you at
I try to channel you in hopes that I could stare you back
But its like every intersection we just missed each other
You got your fans waitin tell me you ain't 6 feet under
And tell me that you coming back that you just to a break
Maybe I blamed you for everything that was my mistake
In hindsight I loved your rawness and I loved your edge
Cuz it was you who talked me down from jumpin off the ledge
Your earings bamboo  your long nails too
Your BMW everytime you came through
You was the braveheart
You stole wayne heart
You never switched it up
You played the same part
But I needed to grow
And I needed to know
That there were somethings inside of me that I need to show
So I just deaded you
Left you in all black
But damn old nicki
Please call back
You told me you'd come when I needed you
And you said it so sweetly I really knew
But I'm standing here calling I can't see you
But I am holding you  holding you  holding you to that
Yo  did I chase the glitz and glamour
Money  fame and power
Cuz if so that will forever go down my lamest hour
I shoulda kept you with me gettin at them nameless cowards
There was no match for you  couldn't defeat your prowess
I had to make them changes  I hope you understood
You see for every bad  I did a ton of good
But you was underground  and I was mainstream
I live the life now  that we would daydream
My only wish is you come enjoy it with me
Get on them conference calls  go meet them lawyers with me
The money came yea  tripled and quadrupled it
But I still miss us when we was on some stupid shit
But its still f**k the media
They ridiculed you  never believed in ya
They just deaded you
But dear old nicki
You told me you'd come when I needed you
But I am holding you  holding you holding you to that
And yes I'm holdin you  holdin you  holdin you
Oh yes I'm holdin you  holdin you  holdin you
To that
