Send a shout, I propose a toast

Look how we arose, we gettin' grown

I tell my bro (Bro-bro), hold your head

I get you hope, I get you hope

But I can't bring you back, no

Set across the Atlantic, this time with no shackles

Did we betray our families?

Beg forgiveness from ancestors, no family to access

Four kids in the bedroom, two boys on the mattress
Tobi remembers his childhood and the struggles he faced growing up.

I'm screamin' R-I-P Lil' P (Lil' P)

Yeah, from my living room seat
Tobi is mourning from the comfort of his own home.

Say hi to big bro for me

OD, hurricane TOBi
