Long Drive

Got a call the other night, it was from my homie We haven't spoke in quite some time, but he called me and said he's lonely Kinda far my brother? Can you hang on until the morning He said yes and so I got inside my car as it started pouring We haven't spoken in a year and he called me drunk up off them 40s Why would I have thought he went to sleep and started snoring As I kept on driving, the rain kept on pouring Reminiscing bout them days we was outside until the morning Smoking clouds of sticky haze, just youngins we was out here doing it Now I'm swerving through this maze, try not to crash while I pursue him I don't know why I didn't stay on call, I'm sure he's losing it I can hear the pain inside his voice, he's drug abusing I call him back and call him back, he ain't answering useless Now I'm speeding fast, cause I really don't wanna lose him I can tell by how he's sounding, he's been heavy drug abusing I swear if he got back on black, I'm gon' fucking lose it Hold on, that makes too much sense, we ain't spoke in bout a year Last time he got hooked on fent, he vanished, type disappeared Said he didn't wanna disappoint me, it's been tough to hear I've been told I love too hard, it puts people in states of fear But I swear if he don't answer, I'ma burst out into tears It's crazy to think the last time we had spoke, I ain't wanna see him I get it now, he had called not for us to make amends But instead because he's dying and wants me to hold his hand Cause ain't nobody been there for him, all he had was me Now I'm crying in his car, God please don't let it be He done been through so much pain, please just leave him be I'm bout to crash this car man, I can't even fucking see About an hour away, my stomach is tied to knots I've been crying for some 40 miles, can't believe I hung up It was so obvious what this was, my brother's gon' take his life I'm pulling up now, there's not a light on inside He left the door unlocked, it's like he knew when I'd arrive I can't seem to find him, it seems like nobody's inside I call out to him, but I'm not getting a reply My brother, my brother are you alive My heart beats skipping, but I can't waste any time I call his phone, it had led me to his demise There he was, in the bathroom turned on his side His body was cold as ice
