How come lyrics
by D12
So I changed, huh?
You got a phone, pick it up, call me
How come we don't even talk no more?
And you don't even call no more
We don't barely keep in touch at all
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin' now
After all the years we been down
Ain't no way no how, this bullshit can't be true
We family and ain't a damn thing changed, unless it's you
So young, so full of life in vibrant
Side by side wherever you was ridin' I went
So close, almost on some Bonnie and Clyde shit
When Ronnie died you were's right by my side with a sholder to cry on
Tissue to wipe my eyes, and a bucket to catch every tear I cried inside it
You even had the same type of childhood I did
Sometimes I just wanna know why is it that you surcame to yours
And mine I survived it, you ran the streets, I 9 to 5'd it
We grew up, grew apart, as time went by us
Then I blew up to both yours and mine surprises
Now I feel the vibe I just can't describe it
As much as your pride tries to hide it
You're cold, your touch it's like ice
In your eyes is the look of resenment
I can sense it and I don't like it
How come we don't even talk no more?
And you don't even call no more
We don't barely keep in touch at all
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin' now
After all the years we been down
Ain't no way no how, this bullshit can't be true
We family and ain't a damn thing changed, unless it's you
It was my dream at first to be on spittin' a verse
On my own album with a deal but shit got burst
So I came out I woulda killed a nigga first
Before I let him disrespect me and check me over some worste
Some bitch that I wasn't with I would hit her then quit
But you would pull a talk with her and tell her she was the shit
I told you don't get involved in it, you was smokin' the chron with her
Comin' out of the bar with her stumblin' half drunk
Like y'all was husband and wife or somethin'
But me catchin' you fuckin' other niggers musta hurt you pride or somethin'
'Cause you won't fuck at the mouth with people like you wanted with me
When all I tried to do was show you that your bitch was shifty
And ever since the fans and all the shit that I produced
You actin' like I ain't you man and lyin' like she can't be loose
But I am really your friend, I'm just trying to tell you the truth
But don't hate the game or the player 'cause the one that is changing is you!
How come we don't even talk no more?
And you don't even call no more
We don't barely keep in touch at all
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grape vine we even beefin' now
After all the years we been down
Ain't no way no how, this bullshit can't be true
We family and ain't a damn thing changed, unless it's you
You're only at the top 'cause my homie had to stop
Now we actin' like I gotta live only for the block
And homies in the hood only she be on the tube
Only gossip on the porch get to speakin' on who
Fools I used to rap with all expect magic
Like my finger get to snappin' and "Poof, it just happen
But proof is just actin' out the party was stoned
Shady made it so my baby's ain't starvin' at home
See the devil in you grin' since the ghetto we been friends
Whenever real intelligence thats forever till the end
I be the hatred in your eyes and the satan in your lives
And wastin' my times with these snakes in disguise
(How come) When you talk it's with bitter is fight
And (How come) it's my fault for what you did with your life
And everytime I go to hear you and play you look away
We barely embrace, you can't even look me in my face
(How come) When we started datin' I was almost 9
Now I'm 35, missin' that big behind
Now all I do is drive, thinkin' 'bout our lives
Come home every night dodging butcher knives
And I ain't gonna lie, I like the attention
Stick one of the wives sayin' I'm out fishin'
Let's put it all behind, let's settle our difference
You ready to talk, I'm ready to listen
Back in the days I was fiendin for fame
It's a shame rappin's just like coochie you kick game until you bang
And every wakin morning I'm doing the same thang
Just hanging and brainstorming and tryin to make a name
You blessin' the game that's when everyone around you holds perception of change
And you accept it because you made it
But when your lungs faded you're treated like a scoundrel
So obviously your homies never gave a damn about you
I paid my dues twice and I ain't lying
See that's first in the hood and the other after I signed
No time for bein' kind when your enemies shown
I walk alone while y'all try anything to get on
How come we don't even talk no more
And you don't even call no more
We don't barely keep in touch at all
And I don't even feel the same love when we hug no more
And I heard it through the grapevine we ain't even beefin' now
After all the years we've been down, ain't no way no how
This bullshit cant be true
We family, ain't a damn thing changed unless it's you!
