Lyrics
[Intro:]
It's a tough one right here
A real tough one
For everybody that lost somebody
Ya know
Chorus:
What will I do baby, now that you're gone
You're gone
What will I do baby, not that you're gone (gone)
You're gone (gone)
[Southstar talking over chorus]
What am I gonna do?
You know I miss you
You know I love you ma
[Smilez (southstar)]
Dear mom, I know you're prowd your sons doing good (yeah)
But I return it all for just one hug ( I would)
Your oldest son and daughter they doing good
We all sticking together like we should (family)
You introduced me to the lord when I had no kids
Mad at the world like life ain't fair
I remember you said only the lord I should fear (i do)
And with that my stormy weather would be clear
Lord how could you take somethin' so precious
Against our prayers,cares and strong wishes (how could you)
I know now ma you livin' through your kids
And if I look at my heart there you is
I can't believe that you're gone you was my best friend
My mother my father everything that I am (word)
I love you, mom you's my guardian angel
I can't wait to see your pretty face real soon (rest in peace)
Chorus
[Southstar]
1999, I lost my son
That day I thought I lost my mind
Victim of a still birth, man it still hurt
Until this day memories still lurk (yeah)
I think to myself 'bout what could it been (uh-huh)
It makes me realize that life is thin
And I promise that you'll always live on
Especially, with your name tattooed on my arm
And breaks, dog I can't believe that you're gone
Can't believe I gotta mention your name on this song (man)
Seems like yesterday we was jokin' around
Always had a smile on your face, never a frown (yeah)
You told me, "star keep holdin' it down"
You got too much talent to be quittin' it now
So, cause of you I stayed in this game (that's right)
I'ma make sure no one forgets your name (rest in peace breaks)
Chorus
[Southstar]
I still don't know how I got by (uh)
All of these hard times I took it and strive
Turn to the pad grabbed me a pen (uh-huh)
And said that "i would enjoy my life to the end (that's right)
And no matter what, I keep my head up
Persue my dreams and never get fed up
So, when I hear this put up my fist (yeah)
To let ya know that you'll always be miss (oh)
[Smilez]
It took so long to write these thoughts
It's so dang hard to lose a love
I'm gon' stay strong and pray to the lord
Cause everything he does is for a cause (yeah)
Adam ikenser, that was my dog (my nigga)
I won't forget those wild times in football
You won't be forgotten man, that's for sure
Pour out a little liquor for all of ya
[Chorus 2x]
[Outro:]
[Southstar and (smilez) talking in background of chorus]
Yeah, dedicate this one to my son malik
Rest in peace I see you baby
(Yeah, dedicate this one to my mother gloria

To my dog breaks I know you're watchin' my back
I always watch yours, you heard yeah
(My man adam ikenser my dog, we all miss you
Man all your boys miss you know that man, uh)
