We Miss You - Big Shug

What’s up Uncle Keith?

You know I miss you

Tell Biggie and 2Pac I said what’s up

And tell my grandfather I said what’s up

Aight, Dad, get that, man

Atlanta, Georgia, you was getting the grades

Me and Lennox hustle, getting my pay

You’re a Morehouse man, far from the stage

We hung out at every Wednesday

It’s crazy, it seems like just yesterday

How quick time pass away

I used to watch New Edition and Mojo used to handle it

I chopped the buds, bagged it and scrammed with it

I had this gift to rhyme hard as shit

You wanted to learn cause you couldn’t rhyme for shit

Buttermilk bottom in front of Spellman

We worked it out with Tony Mitchell, never dissed you

You had an issue to tell your fam

That you went to school, now you had to switch your plans

Try to convince them now you’s a rapping man

With the dude Suga Bear from Murderpan

At first, it was hard for the judge to swallow

But he had no choice but to follow, it’s what it was

«Don't ever try to underestimate Guru the Great»

Me miss you

We miss you

We miss you

We miss you

We miss you

We miss you

We miss you

Back in Boston, we rocked some shows

You got better by the days, liked your flows

Suga Bear and Keithy E., soon to be stars

This was the first edition of the crew, Gang Starr

You and me, and my brother Swave D

Swore to God, we’re the new Treacherous Three

Dropped my brother, flipped the script with Mike D

Kept it moving with the Gang Starr street legacy

My addiction to hard white got me locked up

After the while in the bing, guess what popped up

Manifest, nice video, nice dream

I seen you rocking it with your new man Preem

I wasn’t hating, I was glad at the fact

That you was trying to put Boston right on the map

And I knew that I’ll soon be free

And I hope you had a spot waiting for me, real talk

I remember when you embraced me like a brother

Came to New York so you could show me another

Level of this hip-hop that I dreamed about

Biz Markie, Kane, still walked about

Toured the world, seen all kinds of nations

Formed the crew to hold you down, Gang Starr Foundation

Made money cause of you, bought a crib cause of you

The whole world know me cause of you

And I’m sorry I wasn’t there for your last day

Saw your pictures withered away

I wished that I could’ve save you, but God had to save you

No more clowns would enslave you, real talk

And every time it rain, I’ma think of you

And every time the sun comes out, I’ll think of you

Alana’s holding it down for little Gu

And my life to you is true, I miss you

Real talk my man

Lot of people trying to make money off your name and such right now

But we gon' continue the legacy

Me and DJ Premier

And all those around us still

You know what I mean

It is what it is, man

Big Shug

Aha

And every time it rains, I’m thinking about you

And every time the sun comes out, I’ll think about you

Everyday and night

We miss you

We miss you

Guru

Yes we do

Everyday

We miss you
