Stan Lyrics - The People's Rapper - Jon Connor

My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got outta bed at all 

The morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all 

And even if I could it'll all be gray but your picture on my wall 

It reminds me, that it's not so bad, it's not so bad 

Dear Chris, I hope these words reach you 

My only regret is that I never get to meet you 

I used to scream the words to juicy 'til my voice were hoarse 

Now my mama smiles when she sees my face in the source 

I think to myself, Is this what you envisioned? 

And how different would the game be if you were still living 

Fat, black, ugly as ever but we ain't give a shit 

True lyricist and now we caught up in these images 

In ignorance we act like we can't remember when you was on the radio 

Killing shit, just spitting the realest shit 

Between you and I sometimes all I do is cry 

Cause you was the only one who was ready for you to die 

And we say you was the greatest cause we know you spit your soul 

And today you can't blow unless you doing what you're told 

And I'm just letting you know how much your legacy meant to me 

And just know that lyrically you will always live through me

Yeah, dear Pac it's like I'm the only one fighting 

One of the last who still gives a shit of what he's writing 

I hate when people talk about you and all they got was Thugging 

Cause 'keep ya head up' was what taught me how to treat a woman 

And all the controversy is what folks like to remember 

But my nigger had a sister, who had the same story as Brenda 

And see you knew her pain that was the only thing that mattered 

Just why don't you go and ask her if 2Pac was just a rapper 

But you, you had a message and we felt it 

And you knew the story of the struggle and you wasn't scared to tell it 

You told that if you don't change the world then your words will plant the seeds 

You know 'bout where I'm from I got you and Breed on repeat 

You showed me the sky's the limit from a rapper to an actor 

From the background dancer to a screen with Janet jackson 

You showed me as a writer that my job is to inspire 

Always reach for the stars but you told me to reach higher, for real

Dear Breed, I was only 20 when I met you 

I'm just glad that I got to tell you how much I respect you 

You was our beginning, you gave us our sound 

"Ain't No Future In Yo Frontin" gave us reason to be proud 

Instead of being a city under a dark cloud 

You gave us a reason to say Flint and say it loud 

The first rapper I ever knew as a child it made me smile 

And as a grown man I still get that same feeling now 

I never listen to the haters, never listen to the comments 

Cause I promise that my remake was a tribute paying hommage 

And I don't want no sympathy ain't do it for publicity 

I guess it was just in me to do it for your memory 

Never tought that I get backlashed for that song 

Cause how could such good intentions get taken so wrong? 

But when Erica came and hug me with tears in her eyes 

I knew that what I did was right and felt your tears from the sky, love
