Me And You
Silkk The Shocker Lyrics

Me and you together had plans on making the day, having cash As time passed tryin' to make it all last You know we struggle Hope we can see better days And the time different dreamers is to go our separate ways
You and I always dreamed of making a lot of money together, but it has been tough trying to make it work. We are facing struggles, and I hope things get better for both of us. However, I've realized that our plans and dreams are not aligned anymore, and we need to move in different directions.

See you was always good I was always bad You was always in school I was always to cuttin' class Cheatin' on my tests knowin' I wouldn't pass Told me slow down nigga I was movin' too fast They always told me ? I wish you well one day If you could be spent up, shot at, get me out of jail some day Yeah, I was told to be like you And at times I tried Realized the only way I can beat these streets The only way I knew to survive
You have always been the good, disciplined one, while I was the reckless one who always got in trouble. You studied hard while I skipped classes and cheated on exams. You would always tell me to slow down, but I wouldn't listen. People always said you were going to be successful one day, and I looked up to you. I tried to be like you, but I realized that the only way to survive in our neighborhood was to do what I knew best, even if it wasn't always the right thing.

I remember comin' home high and drunk Smellin' just like a alcoholic Tryin' to sneak you in They damn near caught us We be down to rock the block party's all night Even thought we clown, we be down to fight, all night Hangin' with the big homies Askin' what they hittin' fo' I remember stealin' junk food out the neighborhood liquor sto' Sittin' back reminiscing' on all the things we had Even thought it was rough, it never seemed so bad
I remember coming home after partying hard, smelling of alcohol and trying to sneak you in before anyone noticed. We used to have so much fun together, dancing all night and ready to fight anyone who dared challenge us. We would hang out with the older guys and ask them what they were up to. I also remember stealing junk food from the liquor store, and looking back, even though we had to deal with tough situations, it never felt as bad as it seemed.

Our destiny, we can't shape I know we made mistakes Even thought i wonder why He took you I can't question fate I guess it was written
We can't control our fate, and I recognize that we have made many mistakes along the way. Sometimes I question why you were taken away, but I also accept that this was meant to happen, and it was written in our destiny.

But check it out You still hear 'cause you gon' live through me, see, and Silkk
You may no longer be here with us, but your memory will always live on through me, your family, and our shared experiences.

Me and you I always thought we'd be together I shoulda' known nuttin' last forever And see I, destiny, we can't shape it Even thought I wonder why we die I can't question fate Me and you I always thought we'd be together I shoulda' known nuttin' last forever And somehow I always thought you'd be there Get a deg on the mark, it's cold, but it's fair
I used to think we would always be together, but I now realize that nothing lasts forever. Our destiny is beyond our control, and although I can't help but wonder why we are subjected to death, I understand that questioning fate is futile. Despite these thoughts, I will always cherish the times we spent together and will never forget you. It is a hard truth, but it is how things are.

See man, right now I just gotta watch my step No matter how many homies I lose I can't get used to death I remember us 5, runnin' wild Just tryin' to get paid It wouldn't seem like a jail Put some rose on Dante's grave (No reason you gon' die) Gimme for thinkin' that You were my brother I'd pay millions to know I was safe A million to bring ya back y'all my family, as well as my friends And if I had to bring ya back that mean I havta lose ya again Your memory's gonna live on even though ya' gon' I'm sittin hear contemplating where it all went wrong
I am cautious about my future and the longevity of my life because I have lost too many friends to death. I remember when the five of us used to hustle together and find ways to make money. Even though some of the things we did may have landed us in jail. Rest in peace to our friend Dante. It's not fair that you died, and sometimes I think I should have done more to protect you. You were my brother, and I would pay anything to ensure your safety, even a million dollars to bring you back. But if I brought you back, I would inevitably lose you again. Your memory will live on through me, and sometimes I think about where we went wrong and what I could have done differently.
