DL by Markel You shined like the sun on a sunny day There is no one who could fill your place. You keep the streets alive, Even when it was dead outside. You were a man that held his pride. I remember the days we were straight trappin. And when we went in the house, We went straight to snackin. The night I heard that thing clappin, The same night the sky spoke to me and told me what happened. I didn’t know what the hell happened. We will always remember you for everything you did. Now all I got to say is Rest in Peace kid…
