[length: 03:53]
[00:13.92]Maybe you died ’cause everybody ask me where you at
[00:17.49]I try to channel you in hopes that I could steer you back
[00:20.98]But it’s like every intersection we just missed each other
[00:24.30]You got your fans waiting tell me you ain’t 6 feet under
[00:27.70]And tell me that you’re coming back and you just took a break
[00:31.16]Maybe I blamed you for everything that was my mistake
[00:34.63]In hindsight I loved your rawness and I loved your edge
[00:38.06]’Cause it was you who talked me down from jumping off the ledge
[00:41.42]Your earrings bamboo, your long nails too
[00:44.75]Your BMW every time you came through
[00:48.35]You was the brave heart
[00:50.28]You stole Wayne heart
[00:51.97]You never switched it up
[00:53.66]You played the same part
[00:55.27]But I needed to grow
[00:57.06]And I needed to know
[00:58.72]Were there some things inside of me that I needed to show?
[01:01.81]So I just deaded you
[01:03.75]Left you in all black
[01:05.44]But dear old Nicki
[01:07.38]Please call back
[01:08.75]You told me you’d come when I needed you
[01:14.79]And you said it so sweetly I believed you
[01:21.42]But I’m standing here calling I can’t see you
[01:28.38]But I am holding you, holding you, holding you to that
[01:34.83]Yo, did I chase the glitz and glamour
[01:38.68]Money, fame and power
[01:40.05]’Cause if so that will forever go down my lamest hour
[01:43.23]I should’ve kept you with me getting at them nameless cowards
[01:46.67]There was no match for you, couldn’t defeat your powers
[01:50.07]I had to make them changes, I hope you understood
[01:53.35]You see for every bad, I did a ton of good
[01:56.86]But you was underground, and I was mainstream
[02:00.36]I live the life now, that we would daydream
[02:03.75]My only wish is you come enjoy it with me
[02:07.56]Get on them conference calls, go meet the lawyers with me
[02:10.62]The money came, yeah, tripled and quadrupled it
[02:14.09]But I still miss us when we was just on some stupid shit
[02:17.43]And it’s still fuck the media
[02:19.96]They ridiculed you, never believed in you
[02:23.65]They just deaded you
[02:26.58]Left you in all black
[02:27.94]But dear old Nicki
[02:29.72]Please call back
[02:31.14]You told me you’d come when I needed you
[02:37.00]And you said it so sweetly I believed you
[02:44.08]But I’m standing here calling I can’t see you
[02:50.77]But I am holding you, holding you, holding you to that
[02:56.42]And yes I’m holding you, holding you, holding you
[03:01.93]And, yes I’m holding you, holding you, holding you
[03:04.82]And yes I’m holding you, holding you, holding you
[03:08.21]To that
[03:11.59]And yes I’m holding you, holding you, holding you
[03:14.81]And, yes I’m holding you, holding you, holding you
[03:18.23]And yes I’m holding you, holding you, holding you
[03:21.67]To that
