5 Steps
Dru Hill Lyrics
I don't know how much longer
You're going to be here
So I say my prayers
Every night
One for my mother
One for my father
And one for the love of my life
So if you decide to leave today
And take only
Half of yesterday
And Forget all hope for the present
Cause it just went away
[Chorus]
We were 5 steps
From eternity
We were 4 steps
4 steps past love
And 3 wishes
3 wishes from
Touching the heavens above
Another day is gone
Another night now dawn
Waiting patiently hoping you'll return
But not before long
Why did you say goodbye
I still feel your presence
In my bed at night
And what was reality once
A love True in form
Has now added pain
For a man scorn
Forced to wear the memories of pain
Around an empty heart
Now I sit in silence and begin to think
As laughter echoes through the air
I can't get you off my mind
But a whole new love
I could never bare
So now I lay
Me down to sleep
And I pray my Lord my soul to keep
And if I die, before I wake
Then I promise I'll be there for you always
[Chorus: x 4]

The group consists of lead singer Mark "SisqΓ³" Andrews (who went on to have a successful solo career), Tamir "Nokio" Ruffin and, Larry "Jazz" Anthony, and James "Woody Rock" Green.
Signing to Island Records through Haqq Islam's University Records imprint, the group released two successful albums, Dru Hill and Enter the Dru, before separating for a period from late 1999 to 2002, during which time SisqΓ³ and Woody released solo albums. While Woody's Soul Music LP was a moderate success in the gospel music industry, SisqΓ³'s debut album, Unleash the Dragon, and its hit singles, "Thong Song" and "Incomplete", were major pop successes, and established SisqΓ³ as a household name outside Dru Hill. SisqΓ³'s second album, Return of Dragon, did not sell as well.
In 2002, by then part of the Def Soul record label, the group reunited and added fifth member Rufus "Scola" Waller to the lineup for their third album, Dru World Order, whose underperformance led to the group being dropped from Def Soul. In 2009, the group signed to Kedar Entertainment Group and released their fourth album, InDRUpendence Day, the following year, with new member Tao taking the place of the again departed Woody.

@trulyspeaking WOOOOW!!!!

I question these events. There was a fire on that block years ago. A kid named Davonte ran back in to get his brother Tajon that was in a wheelchair. 5 people ended up dying in that fire. Not too sure who this "nick" person you are speaking of is/was or what "friend's" kid he was helping. All those involved in that fire were related.
