[Verse 1] 
They ask me am I ok 
they ask me if I'm happy 
are they asking me that because of the [bad word] that's been thrown at me 
or am I just a little snappy 
and they genuinely care 
Doody, most of my life its just been me and you there 
and I continuosly stare at pictures of you 
I never got to say I love you as much as I wanted to but I do 
yeah I say it now and you can't hear me 
what the [bad word] good does that do me now 
but somehow I know you're near me in presence 
oh I went and drop some presents off to ease it to them 
two little beautiful boys of yours to try to ease their minds a little 
and dawg you'll never believe this 
but Sharonda actually talks to me now 
Jesus and everyone else is just tryna pick up the pieces 
man how you touch so many [bad word] lives and just leave us 
they say grievance has a way of affecting everyone different 
if it's [bad word]  how the [bad word] am I supposed to get over you 
Difficult as it sounds... 

[Verse 2] 
Doody, that's what we call each other 
I don't know where it came from but it just stuck with us 
we was always brothers 
never thought about each others' skin colours 
til one day we was walking up the block in the summer 
it was like 90 degrees, I was catching a sun burn 
tryna walk under the trees 
just to give me [bad word] 
I'm moaning I just wanna get home 
when I look over and your shirt is off 
I'm like you gonna fry and like 
"No I wont, I'm black stupid 
and black people they got melatonin 
in their skin, we don't burn" 
meanwhile, my face is glowing and I felt 
like I'm on fire 
and the entire time you're just laughing at me 
and snapping at me with your shirt, [bad word] 
and I still have to get you back for that [bad word] 
and by the way them playboy rings 
my mother stole from you 
well Nate finally got em back 
 [bad word] it must have been at least 16 years ago 
well I put em in your cask-ahhh 
moving past it, it still ain't registered yet 
but you can bet your legacy they'll never forget 
the motor city motown 
hip hop vet, hip hop shop, dreads 
it don't stop there 
Yeah, as difficult as it sounds... 

[Verse 3] 
And this may sound a little strange but I'mma tell it 
I found that jacket that you left at my wedding 
and I picked it up to smell it 
I wrapped it up in plastic until I put it in glass 
and hang it up in the hallway so I can always look at it 
and as for all of me and D12 we feel like [bad word] rap 
it feels like our General just [bad word] died in our lap 
we shut off all our pages, 
all our cell numbers has changed 
our two-ways are in the trash 
so some cats will have to find a new way 
and I know that it feels like the dreams will die with you today 
but the [bad word] is there all still here and you ain't 
Purple Gang, you gotta keep pressing on 
don't ever give up the dream dawg 
I got love for you all 
and Doody, it's [bad word] you bought people together who never 
woulda been in the same room if it wasn't for you 
you were the peacemaker Doody 
I know sometimes you were moody 
but you hated confrontation 
and [bad word] hated the feuding 
but you were down for yours whenever it came to scrapping 
if it had to happen, it had to happen 
believe me, I know you're the one who taught me to 
throw them balls back on Dresden 
from making cars to paintballing 
getting arrested 
to sitting across from each other in cells laughing and jesting 
they tried to hit us for 5 years for that, no question 
I guess them hookers and bums that we shot up 
didn't show up for court 
so we got off on a technicality, left sweating 
me, you and what's his face 
I forgot his [bad word] name 
shame he even came to your funeral 
he betrayed our team 
and if I see him again I'ma punch him in the [bad word] face 
and that's on Ha
