[Nas]

Photographs of lost memories,

On the block with shit and Hennessey,

Pictures of us in mock neck shirts,

Valentine nail 'n brown bags

Brothers like to brag bout their cousins

That are locked in the system,

we all for victims, we all called Christians

The Islamic faith, restore all our faith

Barb wire torn, all brick wall but we all can't escape

[mcghetto94]

[Verse 3: Quan]

And can we please have a moment to mourn?

For Pac, Biggie and Pun 'cause through us they live on

Jam Master Jay, Freaky Ty and Alliyah

Big L and Left Eye, when we die we wish to see ya...

[mcghetto94]

For soldiers and troops away with helmets and boots

And families back home who pray they make it home safe

Hopin' that they don't get hit with a stray or missiles

This is just a moment to let you all know that we miss you

Mommy I'm still here, wishin' I was there with you

Let's take 'em home

[mcghetto94]

For Will, Bokeem, Bar, Pappy -- my niggaz

Here's another Warrior Song from Nasty and Quan

It's to him I pass the baton to carry this on

Street's Disciple, salute to those who's gone with bullets

And I promise through rhymin' Quan gon' rep his life to the fullest

And can we please have a moment of truth?

[mcghetto94]

[Verse 2: Nas]

Yeah, and can we have another moment of silence?

For brothers who died from black-on-black violence

From here to the Dark Continent were rebels sell diamonds

To clients allover the world, got little Black girls dyin'

And can we please pour some more liquors?

[mcghetto94]

[Chorus: Quan sings]

As days goes and nights fall

For the rest of our life we'll miss y'all.

And even though life must go on, we'll still mourn.

While wishin' y'all were home

[mcghetto94]

Trapped in the game, not knowin' how to stop and get by

To live it alive, so instead they live it to die

Can we please have a moment of peace?

For every G that fell for his flag in the streets

Bloodin' and thuggin', folkin' and lokin'

Crypin' and creepin', Latin and kingin'

Or just for poor righteous teachin'

[mcghetto94]

[Verse 1: Quan] Can we please have a moment of silence? That's for my niggaz doin' years in confinement And for my soldiers who passed over, no longer living That couldn't run whenever the reaper came to get 'em Can we please pour out some liquor? Symobolizin', let's take in time to consider that Though our thugs ain't here, the love is here And we gon' rep 'til slugs kill us here This for my dawgs stuck in the struggle tryin' to gain Smokin' trauma, sniffin' Ra while sellin' cocaine
