(Planet Asia) Yeah, this to all the people in my life that's restin in peace, y'knowhatI'msayin? Here to let y'all know that y'all give me inspiration to do what I do And I ain't never gon' forget you, knahmsayin? For as long as I'm alive (verse One) For all my peoples gone... from nine to five As long as I'm alive my ****** we gon', be strong Now peep the song, the streets is gone, to each his own From money spent to every song that I was featured on It's for the block and we gon' keep it goin For all my close friends gone, givin me energy to speak my poems Rest in peace to the God Al Woods Kept my self-esteem high since a child in the hood I was raised on the Westside, wildin for goods Same cats that used to kick it now be killin each other Comin from different neighborhoods and not feelin each other The way they used to loud talkin, last words is ***** I'll shoot you The streets is eighty-five, cause nowadays you might get popped in the back at the party tryin to flee to survive For all my friends that travelled to the other side You'll be forever on my mind as long as I'm alive (Chorus) (As long as I'm alive) Tell all my homies that I'm lost in the storm, I'ma keep it movin on (As long as I'm alive) You'll always have a piece of my heart Piece of my mind, and a peace of my art (As long as I'm alive) You shall forever be mourned I'm thinkin bout y'all every mornin (As long as I'm alive) I shall never forget the good times and all the places we went (Verse Two) In high school you was my closest homey, although from different crews We used to chop it up bout all the **** that we was into From girls to guns, and situations in our circle And it hurts everytime when I think about the day they merked you You left a lonely spot Broke down when I heard it like damn why they have to leave the homey shot? My fond memories are commonly remembered Good times and in my mind it's like I speak to you spiritually And to my favorite Uncle Franklin Harper You shall never be forgotten for as long as I'm alive and talkin Inside a soul darkened, due to circumstances These past years done had some friends of mine who died from cancer It's messed up never knowin your chances And Tammy I wish you was here so you could see how much we been advancin And your management is much missed, but I know you watchin Rest in peace, little Ann George and Les Watson And I'll gladly sing this song with pride Cause all y'all forever in my heart as long as I'm alive, you hear me? I'll gladly sing this song with pride Cause all y'all forever in my heart as long as I'm alive (Chorus) (samples from the movie "Juice") (Planet Asia speaking over samples) Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Your memory'll live on, with me you can trust Dust to dust and ashes to ashes You're on my mind more for sure as time passes (Verse Three) Sometimes I find myself stressin, then realize at least I'm livin So as long as I'm alive, it's for y'all I'm reppin Until I'm back to the essence, and if it wasn't for half of my peoples gone I probably wouldn't practice my profession From all the gunfights, and white chalk, funerals wakes and white cops Lockin my ****** soon as the night pops off Nowadays gotta be strong to survive But I be representin my peoples as long as I'm alive (Chorus)
