Uh
This go out to my dog Kato
Rest in piece, baby
He's the kingpin

Dogs that I call my friends
Prayin' for all my friends
Things I do for my friends
We miss you, a'yo Kato

Started off, two dogs with the same goals (uh)
Nothing but two dogs walkin' the same road (uh)
Two different cultures, but had the same heart (yeah)
Enjoyed seeing the light, but lived in the dark
Fifth album, bumped heads in the parking lot (aight)
Was a quiet brother, didn't like to bark a lot
Came direct (uh), when he came, gained respect
So I gave respect, (uh) we shared the same respect
To name regret, in our own circles (what)

Two brothers with good hearts, but if you start
Two brothers that'll hurt you (yeah)
Know how that dirt do, hittin' four corners
(Arf, arf, arf, arf) right back up on us
God tried to warn us, but sometimes we don't see
When I first heard I'm like "This can't be
Y'all niggas is buggin'
Got the wrong information or something
Please tell me these niggas is frontin'"
God, no

Dogs that I call my friends
Prayin' for all my friends
Things I do for my friends
We miss you, a'yo Kato
Dogs that I call my friends
Prayin' for all my friends
Things I do for my friends
We miss you, a'yo Kato

A'yo K', let me kick it with you for a minute
There was things left unsaid, dog, we wasn't finished
Never got to say thank you for being a friend
Dogs for life, and you rode to the end
Held dog down, didn't let a day go by
Every time dog came the the Chi' (what)
I was good, trips out to Phoenix, with the scrambler squad
Now I come back to Phoenix and like, damn, it's hard
To accept the fact, that you won't be coming back
But I hope you coming back, 'cause I won't accept the fact
When you came to New York, you had to come to the crib
And vice-versa, (yeah), that's just how we did
Remote control cars, (what), we would race all day
It was adventure, we would chase all day (yeah)
So I'm not gonna say goodbye my nigga
Instead I would rather
Focus on the time we spent together, that's what matters

Dogs that I call my friends
Prayin' for all my friends
Things I do for my friends
We miss you, a'yo Kato
Dogs that I call my friends
Prayin' for all my friends
Things I do for my friends
We miss you, a'yo Kato

I need you to save me a spot, next to you and the Lord (aight)
I don't know when I'm coming, but keep checking the door (aight)
But while I'm here, knock on wood
I'll make sure that your kids remember who their father was
And Val is good, (aight) understood how real niggas move
We don't talk, but ya gonna always have family in New York
Believe that (yeah), where you at, you can see that
We dogs for life and to death and I mean that

Dogs that I call my friends
Prayin' for all my friends
Things I do for my friends
We miss you, a'yo Kato
Dogs that I call my friends
Prayin' for all my friends
Things I do for my friends
We miss you, a'yo Kato

Yo, Where The Hood At is banging right now, man
That was your favourite joint, ya'mean?
(We miss you, Kato)
It's going just like we thought it would, baby
(We miss you, Kato)
Aight
(We miss you, Kato)
I'll always love you K'
