Lyrics

Wonder when my time come will the world miss me

Contemplating the impact and remembrance upon death.

Too young when Pac died, but I'll remember Nipsey's

Expressing youth during Tupac's death but remembering Nipsey Hussle's influence.

Came from the same streets where cops used to frisk me

Origins in a neighborhood where police used to frisk, reflecting on past struggles.

Didn't get the chance to tell you how much you uplift me

Regret for not expressing gratitude to the deceased for inspiration.

You was the young HOV showing us the Blueprint

Acknowledging the influence of Nipsey Hussle as a mentor figure, likening him to Jay-Z.

How to come up even if you just had two cents

Learning to succeed with minimal resources.

Bumping Crenshaw thru the streets of California

Recalling cruising through California streets listening to Nipsey Hussle's "Crenshaw."

Still can't believe you gone damn homie know I mourn ya

Expressing disbelief and mourning the loss of Nipsey Hussle.

All money in own yo own shit be the owner

Encouraging ownership and independence in financial matters.

Take that money go invest buy some cribs buy the corner

Advocating investing money in real estate.

Give back to the hood reinvest boss up right

Encouraging giving back to the community and personal growth despite potential risks.

Even tho you know one day it might cost yo life

Acknowledging the potential dangers in pursuing one's goals.

I used to hit that Marathon store right on Slauson

Visiting Nipsey Hussle's Marathon store on Slauson Street for inspiration.

Like damn I'm inspired, man can't believe we lost him

Expressing inspiration and disbelief at the loss of Nipsey Hussle.
