[Intro]
"Life isn't about having fun and living in the moment, its about leaving
A legacy so you can never be forgotten." - Lil wayne
[Hook]
Yeah, long live the best, i know he better than the rest, Jay Z was the first
Lil wayne was up next/ now what you're bout to hear is a tale of glory and heart/
Know i'm my own mentor now let the story start
[Verse 1]
I remember going to English cla** just thinking, about lil Wayne like can
He be the creator of figurative language/ most people listen to how well they
Our singing but i was paying attention to what they was saying/
In the car or at home i was blazing that sh** he was creating/
Had my friends and youtubers hating on my n***a while he slaying/
That Drought 3 and No Ceiling Mixtapes was amazing/
All those clever punchlines and wordplay had me craving in and taking in/
Even jamming the Carter 5 where it end/
I'm tired of waiting, drop something again/
But then, he drop that Rebirth and I am not a human being 2 and i hated that sh**
I'm one of your biggest fan thought to myself why this n***a made this sh**/
Damn! at first i gave this n***a the crown, now it look like i let lil Wayne down
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
From 1998 to 2008 when he got on the scene/
I seen white cup wayne was on that syrup and lean/
My n***a wearing baggy cloths white t look it clean/
Then, 2009 and present i couldn't help it but i kept thinking why
This n***a wearing skinny jeans/
I mean, you from Hollygrove it was in yo genes to look mean/
I tried to act like i didn't believe my n***a would change/
I thought he would stay the same, its a shame/
sh** was kinda strange, i guess that comes with the fame/
Now they got me believing in the RIP Wayne/
Plus, he getting caught up with Birdman/
In some lawsuit i don't understand/ how can, you man, fight against yo clan/
In Go DJ you said you his trash man, but now ya'll
Arguing about album release delay plans/
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
This is for the n***a that said he the best rapper alive/
Then arrive, i had to think and contrive/
How can i drive this sh** back to life, it would only take a little thrive/
I can't see my favorite rapper music go down like a dive/
How can it be revive Dwayne gotta survive/
I know i sound like i found him before he went down in the ground/
But Kendrick Lamar, Drake, and J. Cole got the crown/ I look like a clown
I just can't believe I Let Lil Wayne Down
