letra de poppa was a playa - artifact

[intro]
yeah…
listen up
this right here is dedicated…
to a real man, a true player..
know what i’m sayin’??…

[verse 1]
poppa was a playa
an idol, a role model, but you went a different way though..
a saviour, n0body could do it better, no one greater
now we sitting here every morning, singing prayers
and i’m just sitting here talking to these walls and reminiscing
i’m only wishing, wish i could just take it back to the beginning
rewind time back to the past.. and laugh, man it’s funny how accidents just happen so fast
wish i’d read that letter, man i wish i’d known ya better
hope you can read this
i’m just fed up with the way life works and how f-cked up destiny is
i’ve always been on the run, don’t need to say it more than once
but it’s been a h-ll of a week, a h-ll of a month, the pain i feel i can tell no one
i guess it’s true what they say death’s such a f-cking boulder
wish all the pain would just get over, pops is hurting and mom broke her shoulder
as i grow older, it only gets harder to hold her
harder to keep my composure
harder to be the soldier
i wonder if it’s all just fate
when i was little and about to leave the room he said “wait”
looked me in the eyes and said, “yeah this man right here is gonna be something great”
pushed out all the hate
and while everyone else is just tryin’ to pick up the pieces
man, how could you touch so many f-ckin’ lives and just leave us?
that’s not where it all stops
305 was like my second home
when grandma was always on the phone
poppa used to be the rollin’ stone
and as i’m sitting here writing these lyrics and looking at these pictures
lately, i’ve been having nightmares and seeing figures
it’s been hard to move on and see it all through
harder to get over you (too)
see you in a better place, it’s been difficult without you..

yeah..

[chorus]
poppa was a playa
in my dreams you’re still alive and
in my eyes you’ll never die

poppa was a playa
you made me feel like i belong and
and it’s for you that i write this song

poppa was a playa
you should know you’re not alone and
in my heart you’ve got a home

poppa was a playa
i know you’re in a better place
but there’s nothing i wouldn’t give to see your face
yeah..

[verse 2]
it hurts
it’s like my life’s stuck in reverse
i got no f-cking words, as my world just twists and twirls, it only gets worse, it was only a week ago when i saw you all alive and well
it’s like a h-ll, who would’ve seen it coming, no one would try to tell
now i see things clearly and the crystal water running, it’s like you got saved by the bell;
and at your funeral you got a fleet of cars lined up outside your home
reach for the stars, it’s true what they say, players never ride alone
and i try to recollect, try to make some sense of this beautiful mess
and i reflect, you was heaven-sent, no one could ever forget
what kind of playa you was, your legacy, your love, your respect;
and i regret
out of sight out of mind
man it feels like i’m always late, always running outta time
should’ve talked to you more instead of learning how to rhyme
but know it’s a fact that you’ll be remembered down the line
it gets funnier every time i talk about it but now it’s your life that i’m celebrating
instead of waiting, you made me believe- now that i’ve made my way in, this world’s mine for the taking
n0body could fill your shoes
your funeral’s got everyone out here in santacruz
your influence has spread far and wide
you was always by my side
death’s a gamble but all cards aside
we’ll celebrate your life and legacy with all marks that guide
now as the emotion grows, i ain’t even supposed to know
how this song gotta come to a close, h-ll not even a soldier knows
life’s a f-cking b-tch but i gotta choke its blows
you can hear the pain in my flows, i feel like i’ve been staying in the lows
for too long
but now that i’ve moved on, i’m back to writing my lyrical novel again
with a pen in my hand, knowing that you could’ve been my best friend
i apologise for the ignorance i wish i’d just been there
i wake up in the morning with this sensational pain
it goes straight to the brain then my day is invaded with rain
engraved in my veins is your name, this ain’t gonna change

yeah..
that’s godd-mn right
poppa was a playa yo…

[chorus]
poppa was a playa
in my dreams you’re still alive and
in my eyes you’ll never die

poppa was a playa
you made me feel like i belong and
and it’s for you that i write this song

poppa was a playa
you should know you’re not alone and
in my heart you’ve got a home

poppa was a playa
i know you’re in a better place
but there’s nothing i wouldn’t give to see your face
yeah..
