[00:26.22]At my brother's Janazah
[00:28.71]Tears stained sunglassses
[00:31.14]A Salat with no bows
[00:33.48]Pallbearer carry you to the car now
[00:36.54]Chilly day Mosque on 96 and 3rd
[00:39.78]New York City way me and Jay never left my side
[00:45.12]Rest like that picture with your pride
[00:47.40]Who look just like
[00:49.92]Now the city looks less bright
[00:53.52]Brooklyn looking less special
[00:55.08]Don't carry the same weight
[00:56.79]As when you were on this level
[00:59.04]You：work in progress from 40 projects God bless
[01:06.12]An inspiration and a king
[01:08.07]They won't know what I mean but this one 'bout to spring
[01:11.76]Protect it with every feather on the wings
[01:14.37]So even when it hurts you'll never feel a thing
[01:16.50]Said it's a cold cold war
[01:19.92]Ain't nobody wins like the government
[01:23.04]In the U S S R
[01:25.89]Cause this is all for shares
[01:27.84]Nobody cares
[01:29.55]Who you think you are
[01:32.46]And you can fight it but there's no defense
[01:35.94]For what things are
[01:40.62]Baby grab a jacket
[01:42.33]It's a cold cold
[01:43.29]Let me clarify the chorus
[01:45.00]And what my cold war is
[01:47.67]Cause the complexity is enormous
[01:50.88]Using one of my greatest losses with eyes like faucets
[01:54.60]To reinforce every single word that I talk with
[01:58.08]Something about losing things human beings
[02:00.45]That reduces things to their most elementary
[02:04.41]Find yourself where you never meant to be
[02:07.89]With the energy of memories
[02:10.41]That's the soul force of what's behind killing me
[02:14.37]Finding pleasure in the pains
[02:16.59]Like finding desert in the rain
[02:19.53]Twisted：how this world can drive you masochistic
[02:22.14]Question if I'm over it
[02:23.94]Or if I'm numb because I'm closureless
[02:26.28]Or my closure's that we all gotta go and s**t
[02:29.25]Rendered emotionless but moving at the speed of running over it
[02:32.88]Still happy that I opened it
[02:33.66]Said it's a cold cold war
[02:36.63]Ain't nobody wins like the government
[02:39.84]In the U S S R
[02:42.90]Cause this is all for shares
[02:44.64]Nobody cares
[02:46.35]Who you think you are
[02:49.26]And you can fight it but there's no defense
[02:52.74]For what things are
[02:57.48]Baby grab a jacket
[02:59.13]It's a cold cold
[03:00.06]In the studio writing these words
[03:01.92]One after another
[03:03.18]In memorial of my brother
[03:04.92]As you listen to the album with
[03:06.69]Nothing on the cover
[03:08.07]I imagine that he hovers
[03:09.75]In the back of his chair
[03:11.16]Floating right there in the air
[03:12.63]Nodding his head to the music I slightly lose it
[03:16.77]Ask why do I put myself through this
[03:19.86]Crack a smile look up at the file
[03:22.92]The waveforms on the screen of me tryna tell you what I mean
[03:26.64]But I feel that it's all lost
[03:28.62]Or maybe that it's all gotta cross
[03:31.56]Happy with his dedicated song
[03:33.57]But now he's all gone
[03:35.34]But he was never there cause
[03:37.23]He was everywhere nowhere and down here
[03:40.29]Maybe on that judgement day rise up
[03:43.23]We'll both open our eyes up climb up
[03:46.74]Hoping God forgives us for our tendencies
[03:49.17]Wipes away our cool young histories
[03:50.55]Said it's a cold cold war
[03:53.43]Ain't nobody wins like the government
[03:56.64]In the U S S R
[03:59.70]Cause this is all for shares
[04:01.44]Nobody cares
[04:03.12]Who you think you are
[04:06.06]And you can fight it
[04:07.83]But there's no defense
[04:09.54]For what things are
[04:14.22]Baby grab a jacket
[04:15.93]It's a cold cold
[04:19.58]Ride around you know what I'm saying
[04:22.05]All over the world right I mean everywhere
[04:27.24]I mean we just disappear and just come back
[04:30.57]I feel like we can just put him anywhere
[04:33.39]He'd find his way back home y'know'm saying
[04:38.58]Another random thing's that consequence to me
[04:41.55]But maybe to you not much
[04:46.35]But with that said the reason behind me
[04:53.58]Why I do what I does love
[05:02.49]Just riding around bumping that uh
[05:04.83]Either Jay or Nas or me
[05:10.23]I used to tell him like yeah you alright
[05:15.93]But you ain't f**king with my man
[05:19.20]It was always like that so
[05:27.78]Drop a little for you let it bump
[05:33.39]This that Esco music it's that Esco music
[05:45.84]Bumping with my Esco music that raw
[05:53.46]See you on the other side As Salamu Alaykum
