Lyrics

Yeah

Introduction with affirmations, setting the tone.

Yeah

-

In 1992, right out of the blue

Reflecting on a divine plan in 1992, highlighting unexpected success and growth from humble beginnings.

God made a plan, a dream that he renewed

-

But shit, who woulda knew, out the mud, you'd bloom?

-

The dimmest little light turned the brightest in the room

-

I remember times when we thought we seen your doom

Recalling challenging times, loss, and the resilience to overcome obstacles.

Lost ones you loved too soon, through life or through a tomb

-

I remember you and Leano plot inside the room

Remembering past struggles, acknowledging the difficulties, and emphasizing personal growth from scars.

Up and hang a 40, y'all think big as the moon

-

You and your boys were smokin' zing before this shit was cool

-

And no, it wasn't easy, you took them scars and grew

-

Now it's hard to name a place here you haven't flew

Expressing the current success, travel, and a surprise reunion with a friend named Frank.

11 years old at Frank's crib before he moved

-

Thought you won't see him no more, he popped up like, "Ooh"

-

Stole his mama's whip, then rolled back through the hood

Nostalgia about past adventures, mentioning stealing a car and missing a friend named Benji.

That make you miss Benji, gotta know to understood

-

He gave your name, Stizz, he'd be here if he could

-

Sometimes you feel the words and can't figure where they're from

Reflecting on the impact of words, possibly referring to shared experiences and messages of love.

Messages from us, sent to you with love

-

Sometimes you feel the words and can't figure where they're from

-

Messages from us, sent to you with love

-

I remember when you broke into that new crib down the block

Recounting a past incident breaking into a new house, emphasizing lessons learned and personal growth.

Dumbass little kid, lucky you ain't get caught

-

Funny how your head hard and riddled with knots

-

Lessons that you learned will forever be taught

-

Sticky grew up next to you since we could remember

Highlighting strong friendships and the power of unity to overcome financial struggles.

He got your back, you got his back, so with y'all it's whatever

-

You ain't have it then, heard the money make it better

-

It's just you and your fam, y'all put that bread together

-

Somehow separated when the days felt like Hell

Narrating a separation, a friend's jail time, and encouraging focus and determination for a better future.

Next time you seen him, he just got out of jail

-

'Round the same time you was out makin' a sale

-

We know y'all good kids, but tell me where you failed

-

Keep your mind focused, though, the real ones will prevail

-

You ain't done livin', so we ain't finish this tale

-

Yeah, sometimes you feel the words and can't figure where they're from

Reiteration of the impact of words and messages filled with love, emphasizing ongoing support and the unfinished journey.

Messages from us, sent to you with love

-

Sometimes you feel the words and can't figure where they're from

-

Messages from us, sent to you with love
