Remember when I die..
The lyrics to Lil Cuete's song 'When I Die' express his thoughts and feelings towards his loved one. The first verse highlights the fact that when he dies, he doesn't want his loved one to cry but instead hold her head up high and keep her dreams to the sky. He expresses his love for her and how he sees no lies in her eyes. The second verse is more apologetic in nature, where he expresses his deep regret for letting her down and how he wishes he didn't have to walk in his shoes. He talks about being confused because she says he is ruthless and of no use, making their relationship seem on the verge of falling apart.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Remember...when I die...Gurl don't chu cry...Jus dry your eyes...I never meant for me to say goodbye....buh Remember when I die..." This appears to be the message that Lil Cuete wants to leave with his loved one when he dies. He wants her to remember him, but not to mourn him, instead to continue living her life and keeping her dreams to the sky. The song clearly conveys the love Lil Cuete has for his partner, his regret for his past mistakes, and his desire to be remembered even after his death.
