Chorus:
This is a dedication
To those who moved on
Because the world couldn’t hold ‘em, they soul was too strong.
This is for fallen soldiers,
This is for fallen angels,
This is for hustlers in Heaven still workin’ all the angles.
This is a dedication
To those who moved on
Because the world couldn’t hold ‘em, they soul was too strong.
Remember the time,
Remember the place,
Remember the day
I first saw your face.
Verse:
This for my great uncle. He gave me good advice.
Came back to life once—I guess he couldn’t twice.
Sat at his funeral silent and didn’t say nothin’…
I had to laugh to keep from cryin’, I ain’t frontin’.
This for my wife’s pops. Even when life stops,
She don’t forget it, kept his necklace in a white box…
And every day when I see it,
I tell him “Thank you” for leavin’ his daughter
Now I got a reason for breathin’.
This for my grandfathers. My grandma Esther, too.
My grandma Claire, still here, we remember you.
This is for hard times. This is for better days.
This for my folks who decided to go they separate ways.
This for my pop’s struggle. This for my mom’s hustle.
Single mother, plus she was in school? That’s a strong hustle.
You had to pawn your watch? Put up your name buckle?
Welcome to Broakland…I grew up in the same jungle.
I play the Ojays, backstabbers always
Try to get over but, yo’, I’ma show ‘em the doorway.
That’s how they do you in the streets, I guess.
I can’t sleep, but it’s killin’ me—I need my rest!
My little cousin ‘bout to go to jail…who can afford the bail?
Judge let the case go forward, told him it’s no appeal.
That’s how it is—it’ll always be fucked.
We ended up in Broakland, where I’ll always be stuck,
But…
Chorus 2:
This is a dedication
To those who moved on
Because the world couldn’t hold ‘em, they soul was too strong.
This is for hustlers in Heaven still workin’ all the angles.
This is for fallen soldiers,
This is for fallen angels.
This is a dedication
To those who moved on
Because the world couldn’t hold ‘em, they soul was too strong.
Remember the time,
Remember the place,
Remember the day
I first saw your face.

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic

I think this is the most Cunninlynguists’ underrated project and glad to have this as a vinyl. Cunninlynguists are probably the most unique, exciting group in hip hop history.. cheers from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 BLQLYTE

Richie is one of the best, with a classic yet original voice, flow, delivery, themes/concepts, makes his own beats and they are fire. What more can I say, I’ve been waiting for this for years, and Richie is the beat MC/Producer to come out of the Sco, a world-class artist. Phillipdrummond of Today's Future Sound
