We Miss You

Lyrics

[Intro: K.C. Elam] What's up, Uncle Keith? You know I miss you Tell Biggie and 2Pac I said what's up And tell my grandfather I said what's up Aight, Dad, get that, man [Verse 1] Atlanta, Georgia, you was getting the grades Me at Lennox Mall, hustle, getting the pay You're a Morehouse man, far from the stage We hung out at Sans Souci every Wednesday It's crazy, it seems like just yesterday How quick time pass away I used to watch New Edition and Mojo used to handle it I chopped the buds, bagged it, and scrammed with it I had this gift to rhyme hard as shit You wanted to learn, 'cause you couldn't rhyme for shit Buttermilk bottom in front of Spellman We worked it out with Tony Mitchell, never dissed you You had an issue to tell your fam That you went to school, now you had to switch your plans Try to convince them, now you's a rapping man With the dude Shuga Bear from Murderpan At first, it was hard for the judge to swallow But he had no choice but to follow, it's what it was [Bridge: Guru sample, scratched by DJ Premier] "Don't ever try to underestimate Guru the Great" [Hook] Me miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you [Verse 2] Back in Boston, we rocked some shows You got better by the day, locked your flow Suga Bear and Keithy E., soon to be stars This was the first edition of the crew, Gang Starr You and me, and my brother Suave D Swore to God, we're the new Treacherous Three Dropped my brother, flipped the script with Mike D Kept it moving with the Gang Starr street legacy My addiction to hard white got me locked up After a while in the bing, guess what popped up? "Manifest" – nice video, nice dream I seen you rocking it, with your new man, Preem I wasn't hating, I was glad at the fact That you was trying to put Boston right on the map And I knew that I'd soon be free And I hoped you had a spot waiting for me, real talk [Bridge: Guru sample, scratched by DJ Premier] "Don't ever try to underestimate Guru the Great" [Hook] Me miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you [Verse 3] I remember when you embraced me like a brother Came to New York so you could show me another Level of this Hip-Hop that I dreamed about Biz Mark and Kane, still walkabout Toured the world, seen all kinds of nations Formed the crew to hold you down, Gang Starr Foundation Made money, 'cause of you, bought a crib 'cause of you The whole world know me 'cause of you And I'm sorry I wasn't there for your last day Saw your pictures, withered away I wished that I could've saved you, but God had to save you No more clowns would enslave you – real talk And every time it rain, I'ma think of you And every time the sun comes out, I think of you Alana's holding it down for little Gu' And my life to you is true, I miss you [Big Shug talking] Real talk, my man Lot of peoples trying to make money off your name and such right now But we gon' continue the legacy Me and DJ Premier And all those around us still You know what I mean It is what it is, man Big Shug A-heh! [Bridge: Guru sample, scratched by DJ Premier] "Don't ever try to underestimate Guru the Great" [Hook] Me miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you We miss you [Outro] And every time it rains, I'm thinking about you And every time the sun comes out, I'm thinking about you Everyday and night We miss you We miss you, Guru Yes, we do Everyday We miss you
