rest in peace to your MOM! she's up there with her mom, dad and rest of the family thats passed on! building you a spot a mind can't even dream up while on Earth!
Definitely since 1998 to 2008. I just wished he didn’t dumb down his music after 2008. Wayne really was that only nigga holding Hip Hop down other than State Property, Dipset, and G-Unit 💯
It is gut wrenching to think that this form of Lil Wayne is forever gone. What a masterpiece! A instrumental that takes hold of you. A sound that embodies an era. Listening to this is like a snap shot in time. A time in which this man flooded the streets with mixtapes one after another relentlessly. His Mixtape run will forever be unrivaled. He gave us so much meaningful music. As if it were bible verses to his disciples, his people, his city. Lyrics that paint a picture. You can close your eyes and what he is saying comes to life. This may very well be his greatest work. Brilliant is an understatement. This is deep. This is what the game is missing. Thank you forever Weezy!
@@o.hernandez784 hahaha hell nah they’re not gonna say the same thing for migos, they might say something similar, but nothing close to same, the lyrics, flow, and emotions are different. The time was different. Boys were still trying to be men back then. Now it’s different
@@dharshandm7488 He's referencing literally the entire topic of the 2nd verse about how if he gets killed he hopes it doesn't affect his daughter but he makes sure he stays numb (twisted) so that if/when he gets killed he won't feel it.
“Don’t cry for me I gave the best I could give! I can only do me so that’s what I did. And I cherish every breath of my kid, and I don’t wanna go before she grow, that ain’t cool.. but in this game of life I don’t make the rules! Shit, so that’s why I get twisted, so I can’t feel it when it hits me, and my moms don’t need that on her, but I see death around the corner. And if he, so happens to make his way around the block you gotta answer the door when he knock, believe’ that!” 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
2019 this is definitely around when the first Carter came out LIL WAYNE changed my life. I was so lost he helped me through homeless times..he helped me when my dad took his life...he helped me get through pain. Being a addict I feel alot for anyone who has been through shit..Wayne is for sure hands down my favorite rapper💪
You can tell during that time or just even back then he felt like his time was coming. People forget Wayne was really in the field out in New Orleans . He had a lot goin on. I’m sure he’s blessed to have made it this far. Just hope he’s doing okay. I miss the old Wayne. These songs will always b close to me. 💙🙏🏽
this song is so sad :( it kinda makes you realise how precious life is and how you shouldn't just take it for granted because anything could happen at any moment :(
Though Waynes rhymes have been lacking lately, he definitely is more than a legend for what he has done in the past. Changed the game, and helped many though tough times.
@@edwardlynch6550 That comment looks like it was made in the im not a human being 2 era Wayne’s my favorite rapper but I can’t deny that album was bad Recorded when he was going thru epilepsy and lyrically he’s better than ever since D6 reloaded just needs to make better structured songs now.
@@edwardlynch6550 It’s much better than Eminem’s Fack I’ll give it that And I still like no worries, rich as fuck, trigger finger from there forgot the rest of the album.
This song popped up on my timeline, new and soul piercing only for me to search and realize it's been over 16 years old. Wayne was ahead of time when he made this masterpiece. An undisputed 🐐
+Dylan Joe nah he didnt fall off, but he loss a lot of core fans when he stopped goin deep, went straight mainstream & started solely rappin about pussy in clever ways, EVERY SONG lol
This song had me crying when I was 18. Pops just passed away I was on Xanax heavy missing my dad... that’s why I got twisted, so I couldn’t feel it when it hits me... man... RIP DAD LOVE YOU!
Sadly this didn’t and I hated that! Cause this song should’ve been on at least Carter 3 and “Something You Forgot” as well! Those are in my top 5 songs by Wayne
That 2nd verse is peak Wayne Yea and every time I see the sunshine I drop down and give thanks at least one time Feeling like I’m living on the frontline I’m feeling like every second is crunch time I’ve had breakfast…will I make it to lunchtime? And I aint joking so don’t be looking for punchlines Will I be the next victim of a gun crime? I don’t know the answer that’s why I brung mine Riding by myself late at night Pistol on my lap at every single red light I made my bed right so when I do I should sleep tight and peace I rep
So tired of everyone saying wheres Lil Wayne at? He never left he is still telling great stories about real he is living, he just lives the life now no more gang stuff and he already read those books so hes writing new chapters.
Pre-Carter 3 was Wayne's best days musically....everything from 2002 to 2008 was fire....he was on the rise then....Wayne was poppin in the late 90s, but when the Hot Boys broke up, he had to start from scratch....all the Squad Up mixtapes, Carter 1-2, early Drought's and Dedications were just fire.
Just a reminder wayne was the biggest motivation for 98% of your rappers over the age of 25 (basically the only decent ones left). Sure the oldheads of that time hated him for selling out to get radio plays but at the end of the day this man paved the way. It may be an unpopular opinion but as far as rap goes hes my GOAT
“And every time I see the sunshine ☀️ I drop down an give thanks at least one time Feeling like am living on the frontline Feeling like every second is crunch time I’ve had breakfast, will I make it to lunch time?? And I ain’t joking so don’t be looking for punchlines Will I be the next victim of a gun crime? I don’t know the answer that’s why I brung mine”🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Don’t cry for me I gave the best I could give... My brother died in a car crash this year and all I can think about how great he was and how much he loved his son. From here on out I’m doing it TheWillWay. Gone but never forgotten. #MyBrothersKeeper
It’s insane. Multiple albums before 2000, then the Sqad Up mixtapes , then the Carter albums…and then the mixtapes with Drama..etc etc no ceilings etc etc this man wrote a millions punchlines fr , shoot with no pen just punching in and out collecting his thoughts in between
I think we haven't been fair to this man for god sake he changed the game... And time's goes by things changed yal can't expect him to be the same same Wayne from when we grew up on him back in the day. I will forever be a Wayne fan, you can bring you em, nas, jay, biggie only person I hold above Wayne is Pac and I am not even a bigger fan of Pac coz I grew up on Wayne.. Give the legend his flowers while he can still smell them.... 2020 baby
Man after Katrina I used to ride down Basin to Canal make dat left ride to St. Charles with 2 blunts all the day down make a U at da end then ride back down blasting some Wayne! This was one of my favorites
I still don’t think Lil Wayne gets the credit he deserves. Countless hits, features, and records. And somehow Young thug was named 21st century most influential artist. The disrespect is real
Yeah I think cause people just know the mainstream songs like lollipop, amilli, fireman, mrs.officer and stuff like that don’t get me wrong those songs are great now their kinda overplayed but at the time they were definitely great but true Wayne fans know his stuff was WAYYYY deeper and thoughtful than just that. I think that’s why he never gets the props he deserves, he’s in my personal top 10 MC’s
Rildwan Ali You have a small world view, the most successful people ever are part of a major crime syndicate. They sell drugs, people, even souls to the lowest bidder wholesale. The streets gangs only mirror the larger world were drug dealing murder and gangs go hand in hand. The U.S.A depends on drugs to fuel it's economy. The salaries of local police, detectives, ATF,DEA,FBI, prosecutors, public defenders, defense lawyers, courtroom interpretors,bailiffs, county deputies, wardens. Then the industry prison has cheap prison labor or the housing of inmates which the government gives them ship money for each inmate then these private companies profit of selling them different things at highly inflated prices. Theses a big picture, of course governments deal in drugs and always have.I live in a state they say has a rep of being corrupt but it's no more corrupt than what goes on in D.C. they just choose who they hang out to dry.
I just turned 30 this year this year. I’m thinking about all my friends who slowly drifted apart over the years. Man back in the day you couldn’t tell us nothing.
dude ... its really sad, to listten to someone songs, and dont recognize his soul anymore in his words ... thats how i feel when i listen to new lil waynes sounds ... hope u can wake up and still save ur soul man ... Light & Peace to ur path ...
watamote lover 4 life I wanna think the same thing but in his d6 mixtapes he has an upside down cross, and in d6 reloaded he has it right side up so now I'm confused.
You're all looking too deep. Wayne is a baptized Roman Catholic, he believes in God. None of us know his, or anybody else's soul. We know Lil Wayne, the entertainer...not the real person. Ppl sound dumb af thinking his lyrics are a code to his soul, if he's good/evil, if he sold his soul, etc., etc. Dumb shit lol. U ppl need to worry about ur own relationship with God.
