Shafray

I'ma name this song after my sister who got killed in front of her kids in 2020 I'm Carlos Shafray. I love you for life, lil bro This song for all the solid ones in the ground I be tryna make you smile, I know you lookin' down We gon' celebrate for you, we finna act a clown Might shed a few tears for the memory When them niggas killed my sister, boy, I couldn't breathe Loose from your mama, kids a devastating thief Feel like the land always unfurled when I plant my seed Gotta beat up for them chillin', baby, yes, indeed Even if I gotta work a job for what they need I was certain to you when it happened, I couldn't even breathe We had to got off the phone while you had to leave Third time in my whole life I had to hit my knees I love how you be comin' to me in my dreams Supposed to be here to see your lil brother do his thing Promise when I leave this prison, I'm gon' rap and sing I ain't givin' up, baby, that shit not in our genes Gotta pull up to your grave in that Bentley B You been fly as hell, but it wasn't time to spread your wings Mama still runnin' on the streets, I'm tryna get her clean Promise if she let me, I'm gon' treat her like a queen We would be one happy family if it was up to me Picture just the three of us, smilin' and dancin' Far away from no trenches, don't go down in Miami Promise I'ma hold you down, let me stand there Gotta make sure that your kids take their hats to college Forever my big sister, never forgotten Well, I know you just an angel watchin' over me And I promise you to never go back to the street I'ma be your daughter hero just like Hercules We can take over the world as long as she believe When I buy this mansion, she gon' have a set of keys Why did God take your life? I don't understand it You were supposed to be next to me when I hit the Grammys This is really how I feel, the mic's all down I was stuck inside the cell, but you ain't in the ground And I'm sorry for all the times that you felt all alone I'ma fix whatever broke soon as I make it home You got my word that you won't let life pass a nigga by Cardi, you're a seed on my face, expensive till I cry Hopin' you can hear this song all the way in heaven Baby girl, about your auntie Hopin' you can hear this song all the way in heaven Baby girl, about your auntie, I'm forever steppin' Oh, Shafray, I just wish that you could see me now Done made a whole lot of changes, but still ain't backin' down Every time I write a song, I make em' take a bow I just can't wait till they put me in front of a crowd Women gon' give me hugs, the men gon' give me pounds I'ma make em' scream, rest in peace, Shafray Know a nigga got your name all in his face I'ma have you on my mind every step of the way I'ma have you on my mind every breath that I take Finally say goodbye, ain't never too late
