[G#] Do you [F#] remember when I bought the 75 [Fm] Caprice glass?
How I came back to [C#] the yacht, got the pull and [F#] 800 gas?
Shout!
We took it to my pop shop [G#] and sanded it down.
Got it sprayed apple green, we [F#] 16 through the 10.
That was when the click down and [Fm] dirty y'all went to strut.
And that move to [F#] flamboyant made them buy nine stock.
We were dipping so hard we had [Fm] the wheel coming off the ground.
Trying to peel [D#m] every notch and ten while attempting to keep the [Fm] yacht locked down.
Any scraps [G#] we ran across we hopped out [F] and got down.
Drinking [D#m] 40's, smoking Bama, earning [G#] stripes was our life.
Buying any stuff we could, what [F#] good was a knife?
We [D#m] was trying to take them all out the [Fm] game and at the same [G#] time have the hoes calling our [F#] name.
We were naive and young, maybe [G#] even dumb.
But [Fm] there's nothing like the feeling when the respect [F#] comes.
Cause many recognize we got down to business.
[G] And very capable of leaving enemies weak.
[F#] We was kids, showing up to school the next [G#] day.
Like nothing happened, it's all part of life in the [F#] Bay.
Hey, I guess our fathers bred some killers.
[Fm] But I'm still here in Yogo [C#] and I don't feel a [F#]
motherfucking thing of that.

[F#]
It's [D#m] me, Lil' Lose, [G#] Shadow, Louie Lou, [F#] Lil' Birdie, this motherfucker too.
[C#] This is dedicated [G] to you, homie.
Blackbird!
[G#] Do you [F#] remember when I bought the 75 [Fm] Caprice glass?
How I came back to [C#] the yacht, got the pull and [F#] 800 gas?
Shout!
We took it to my pop shop [G#] and sanded it down.
Got it sprayed apple green, we [F#] 16 through the 10.
That was when the click down and [Fm] dirty y'all went to strut.
And that move to [F#] flamboyant made them buy nine stock.
We were dipping so hard we had [Fm] the wheel coming off the ground.
Trying to peel [D#m] every notch and ten while attempting to keep the [Fm] yacht locked down.
Any scraps [G#] we ran across we hopped out [F] and got down.
Drinking [D#m] 40's, smoking Bama, earning [G#] stripes was our life.
Buying any stuff we could, what [F#] good was a knife?
We [D#m] was trying to take them all out the [Fm] game and at the same [G#] time have the hoes calling our [F#] name.
We were naive and young, maybe [G#] even dumb.
But [Fm] there's nothing like the feeling when the respect [F#] comes.
Cause many recognize we got down to business.
[G] And very capable of leaving enemies weak.
[F#] We was kids, showing up to school the next [G#] day.
Like nothing happened, it's all part of life in the [F#] Bay.
Hey, I guess our fathers bred some killers.
[Fm] But I'm still here in Yogo [C#] and I don't feel a [F#]
motherfucking thing of that.
I wanna bring it [Fm] back.
Blackbird!
I wish I could bring it [D#m] back.

[F#] This is dedicated to my homie that never made [Fm] it.
I reminisce and miss you even more when I'm [F#] faded.
You were always hated and [Fm] misunderstood.
Just a damn motherfucker that was repping his [F#] hood.
I wish you could come back like you did that one [Fm] time.
When you walked in my [C#] room it nearly blew my [F#] mind.
As I rewind and think about that love you [Fm] showed.
Especially when you let me know.
With heart [D#m] I let you go.
I know for sure you're in a better place.
[Fm] Resting in [G#] peace with that smuggle off your face.
Ain't [F#] nothing gonna replace the times we all had.
[G#] Kicking it in the alley drinking liquor, smoking [F#] bamboo sacks.
It really don't matter that.
But what you [Fm] did, I got your back to this [G#] day.
I give a fuck what [F#] they say to my love.
Hooray!
I know we's up there [Fm] hearing this.
I bet you're in the studio next to me [F#] feeling this.
I wish I could get rid of this.
Feeling that I [Fm] got when I smashed you in the yacht.
With your image in my [D#m] notch and my back.
I will not but forever be [G#] bound.
Giving love to my homie pouring liquor on the [F#] ground.
Always like a big brother protecting me in the [Fm] streets.
A homie like no other [C#] was always real when he [F#] speak.
Soon it'll be time for me.
So I'll see you later.
[Fm] God bless, rest in peace man and fuck regret.

Amongst many homeboys who now rest [F#] above.
I'm for sure of what I [D#] know.
My folks got murdered by the [Fm] cold cold.
They tiptoe to unload exposed to cover up in [F#] cold cold.
Tell me so don't doubt me cause up in my town there ain't no [G#] cushion.
Flat and bushes oppose.
A cookie do see me creeping up out of the [F#] bushes.
Look at the pain imposed.
We lost Big Lose.
I was gone a while but [Fm] that hit home.
Never [C#] thought it'd get so shady.
Lost the babies and now [F#] Raymond's gone.
What remains are all but memories, recollections and [Fm] reflections.
I can recall all of us at H's on our gauges strapped with [D#m] Krav-Ox ammunition.
Smith and Wesson's love was too expensive cause we didn't [Fm] have scratch but [G#] we had each other's back.
Now I'm like damn man what [D#m] happened to that?
I miss the times when we would ride top top outside before [G] Lone Star.
I cried that night at the park but in my [F#] heart and mind he's still alive.
So can it ride?
It's Blackbird.
Could've [A#] never been no coward.
Putting in fat work on you rivals.
Keeping the title till it's [F#] final hour.
And now nothing's the same.
Way to go Becky.
Race the [Fm] game.
Change his fate for things that came insane.
Living up in the [F] strange and I remain to be that same OG.
You'll always see up in [G] these streets with heat [A#] beneath the seat.
OG's on the creep.
No peace.
Marking [F#] February.
Remember the slender clever never tender.
No pretender.
[G#m] No surrender.
Northern member calling him Blackbird.
Let's go [F]
backwards.
Reminisce the glitwist thick but fewer G's though.
You were [G#] riding the hillish.
I rode bitches.
Now fucking [F#] BNC.
Hoses free all that the high you would and now we hitting [Fm] switches.
I miss you and we're with you so to you this is a [D#m] tribute.

[F#] Ass sweat hit my forehead feel it trickle through my skin.
[Fm] Holding in [C#] my ghetto tears.
Blackbird.
Listen.
Mumbai [F#] getting drunk at ages when BNC was around.
[Fm] The prices [C] on that you know caused havoc in town.
[F#] But then when I did it you felt like we split it.
[Fm] Cause I was [C#] lost in that line.
And rarely would kick [F#] my bag.
I was gone in that fast paced one [Fm] track mind.
But if needed I would ride at a drop [D#m] of a dime.
When that sucker pulled his strap I snatched his warmth [Fm] out his hand.
[G#] You shook like a pit and put hands [F] on the man.
Now that I'm thinking.
It's good that [G#] you did it.
Cause as paper was showing.
[F#] That faggot was snitching.
I'm grown [D#m] now homie no more foolish [Fm] behavior.
[C#] I'm legit laced up with the sixth sense [F#] of a player.
I'm taking care of my daughter.
Cause that girl need [Fm] a father.
All that bullshit for folk.
This nigga [F#] don't bother.
Still I'm more than Kelly Briggs.
On a bud [Fm] to the [C#] head.
Trying to get a head who give a finger [F#] to the feds.
Can a goo get to heaven?
Have mercy [G#] on us.
Have compassion for the bond [F#] amongst friends.
Rest in peace playboy.
[Fm] We all love you homie.
