L-PRO - After The End lyrics

[Verse 1] Time been running out the clock hath runneth down I'm done fighting to be free the inner being found And trying to be me, creating unique sounds R.I.P the MC who used to rock the crowds And when he was alive, he always kept it live He put himself aside, live or die, bust or ride Don't even try to wonder why They called him Father L because he was that type of guy He'll always love his girl, he wanted to see the world He paid attention to detail, complete and thorough The poetry and prose like Henry David Thoreau That's how he viewed his flows, that's how he chose his words He always kept it real, I keeped it strong like steel Sometimes he realized it hurt how others feel A chef in the kitchen, he good at making meals And when it came to spitting he didn't want a deal [Hook] That was Pro, yo he had big dreams but didn't pretend He was a son, a brother, lover and a friend He was a man amongst men, reminisce and Celebrate his life now that it's after the end Now that its after the end, reminisce Celebrate now it's after the end [Verse 2] He hoped you call his name when he's long gone And make the hip hop hall of fame with one his songs He wasn't into playing games, kept that minimal Tame, didn't need a cage like wild animals He always liked good things, appreciated beauty He tried to do the right thing, that was his call of duty Plus he had big dreams but wanted to do them duly With prudent movements, avoided traps like b**by A family man, and he really loved his grams He had high demands, sometimes he'd repremand Then generously approach with open hands He wasn't afraid to speak up or take a stand And if you didn't know, he'd help you understand And all he wanted was a home and a plot of land To travel across the globe walking on the sand He was Pro, L-Productions, Head Of Command [Hook] That was Pro, yo he had big dreams but didn't pretend He was a son, a brother, lover and a friend He was a man amongst men, reminisce and Celebrate his life now that it's after the end Now that its after the end, reminisce Celebrate now it's after the end [Verse 3] Sometimes they called him Pro, sometimes they called him L Appreciated solitude all by himself And as a ghost he hoped his soul wouldn't go to Hell He never needed to be famous wanted known well And if you shared a secret, he would never tell A lion with loyalty like no one else Brought good ideas, worked real hard, tried to earn his belt Would never wish his worst rivals have to go to jail And when he said goodbye, he ended it with peace He was hard-headed when it came to enemies Could hold a grudge for eternity Loved opportunities to instruct and teach The food critic knew the right places to eat Each and every blue moon he'd make a new beat And he believed in honor plus he wished to succeed That's who he used to be He never made a promise that he wouldn't keep That's Pro [Hook] That was Pro, yo he had big dreams but didn't pretend He was a son, a brother, lover and a friend He was a man amongst men, reminisce and Celebrate his life now that it's after the end Now that its after the end, reminisce Celebrate now it's after the end Ain't no more...
