I lost a very valuable person in my life and after not hearing this song for over 15 years it hit me like I just hear it. To those who take good people for granted and still have them in your life, reevaluate yourself and put your ego aside. Ultimately, you’ll end up like some of us wondering how could we ever be so selfish and stupid. Good luck to everyone out there.
Amen brother. Same situation but it's been much less time. How I could've been so acutely aware of a persons significance to me and still fumbled it, I still can't understand. Maybe in the next life.
Big facts 💯 don't be afraid even if it's your old man and he's tough old school tell them you love them more often cause when there gone you can only look to the sky n say it n regret the times u didn't say it just because it was awkward lol ❤ miss ya old man love you ❤
Eminems song to his mom that actually thanked her. It came out around 2013.-14 forgot what it's called. It helped me get through while my mom was in a coma.
Anybody know a song from the years that this song was made that has a really sad electric guitar solo somewhere near the end? I've listened to it on a cd when I was young in maybe 2009 or 2010 and I can't remember who it is by or what the name is... I know it sounded like young jeezy
He really loved Nivea and it didn't work out, but boy did he leave it all on this song. Its 2021 and this is one of Wayne's greatest unreleased tracks ever. The beat the flow the lyrics the passion. God this song is soo damn good!!! #Timeless
This is a certified classic. Wayne in his prime would body most rappers. He’s among the greatest for underground bangers like this one. Sadly, most people aren’t aware of this version of him…
literally, my favorite song by Wayne. this song hes at his FULL lyrical potential, so synchronized through heart mind body and soul. up there with Pac, Nas, etc.. wayne didnt really do this much but this is my ish..
I listened this song in my childhood 12 years ago. I never found it again. Now I'm here and have tears in my eyes, because the half of my life is flying tooooo fast. 🥺 Now I am 22 Years old.
@@DC4L1991: Thx for your advice. Sadly my work/ life balance is not good in the moment, but I try to change that really soon. I wish you the best mate. 🤝
I’ve been trying to remember the name of this song for months. It finally clicked just 5 minutes ago. This needs to be on iTunes or Spotify or something dayyyyyummmmm!
The passion in this sample makes my heart race. He really nailed it with this sample. ❤🔥 Although this was released over a decade ago I still love it like the first time I ever heard it.
until the end of all time, Waynes greatest contribution to Hip Hop... I bow, listening from South Africa, broken and healed by the words to this song..
"What she mean to me is what I mean to rap" I felt that on another level. I was a teen when this song came out and looking back, Wayne meant a lot in the rap game but unfortunately his music is not the same.
“I hope that n*gga know he got a queen, & all I can do is dream, damn” felt that on a whole different level in 2020 than I did as a kid listening to this.. 🐐
How in the holy moly motherfucker did I miss this fucking song. I’m almost 30 and I’ve sworn up and down I GOT ALL THE MIXTAPES from limewire back in the day. I guess not shit, the GOAT snapped 💥💥💥
hes the goat man. i was like 17 when this came out, but i went through my first break up. I truly believe everyone needs to have their heart broken once to make them a better person. my hs sweet heart, i legit screwed that up, this song got me thru it and made me a better person, now im 33. got a girl that loves me and life is good, but this song man. brings back the pain, but mostly smiles to my face. just because i was able to experience PEAK wayne ( 2004-2009) il never forget il tell my kids about him man. freaking goat..

*LYRICS*
I've been lonely, I've been waiting for you
I'm pretending, and that's all I can do (that's all I can do mama)
The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your heart (I hope you hear me)
*VERSE 1*
Pain, since I've lost you, I'm lost too
Nigga feelin' like he at the bottom like a horse shoe
Sorry for the trouble that I put you and your heart through
God knows that I'd do anything for a part two, or to
Be prayin' for the day you come back to me
Sayin' that you forgive me, give me another chance
I'm needin' it like a kidney, I don't wanna advance
Give me back her hands, give me back her touch
I don't ask for much, but I fucked up
I know I fucked up, I admit I fucked up
But everybody fuck up, now this other nigga lucked up
Tell him me and my clique don't give a fuck
Cause um, we from New Orleans, she was from Georgia
She was my down chick, I was her soldier
I was her gangsta, she was my shoulder
You were the pistol to my holster... BANG!
*HOOK*
You've been hiding, never letting it show
Always trying, to keep it under control (I see you hidin' it mama)
You got it down, and you're well on your way to the top (keep doin' your thing)
But there is something that you forgot.
*VERSE 2*
You forgot about the house, you forgot about the ring
I remember everything, I just wanna hear you sing
I remember the love, right after the fights
You can't tell me you don't remember those nights
And if I would cry, then you would cry twice
To me you are the brightest star under sunlight
See take away my title, take away my stripes
You give me back my girl and you give me back my life
Give me back my girl and you give me back my life
See this is just a nightmare, so I blink twice
Open up my eyes hopin' she'd be in my sight
I remember the time, I wish I could bring it back
What she mean to me, is what I mean to rap (what I mean to rap)
*HOOK*
You've been hiding, (y'know) never letting it show
Always trying (I see you hidin' it mama)
To keep it under control (but I know you know)
You got it down (I know you do)
And you're well on your way to the top.
(but I wish you and yours nothin' but happiness shawty)
*VERSE 3*
But I hope you haven't forgot about me
Up in the livin' room watchin' Sports Center
You were cookin' dinner, I was such a sinner
But the Lord is a forgiver, you know they say if you pray
Then you can get your blessings ordered and delivered
And your boyfriend is not like me
Ma, you even went and got a teardrop like me
I remember we would sit at home all day
You called me "butta," I called you "bae"
My momma asked about you, my partners did too
I know your daughter will be so amazin' like you
And I know you probably wish you never met me
And I just wish you never forget me, and let me say
Please don't worry 'bout the women I have been with
No engagement can amount to your friendship
And I hope that nigga know he got a queen
And all I can do is dream, damn.
*HOOK*
I've been lonely, I've been waiting for you
I'm pretending, and that's all I can do
The love I'm sending ain't making it through to your heart.
Damn,great song
Classic on the low

when actually raps, like no autotune , no effect just straight rap.
there are very few who can see him on that level
One of my top 10 wayne songs. Mixtape wayne just hit different. Still here in 2024.
how could they forget about tracks like these....timeless classic straight raw emotion from wayne
Kay Jay that’s what I’m sayin
Omg omg he needs to release all this stuff on the streaming services mannnnn absolute classics
He sounds so passionate in this. God do I miss this wayne
damn this song is amazing. I miss the old wayne.
worst part is that none of his new songs are on spotify
Coming back as an adult that’s able to understand the lyrics, all his old songs hit a lot different. Man’s music is timeless
2024, and I’m still bangin this
literally, my favorite song by Wayne.

I remember listening to this years ago. This is my favourite song by him. The writing was great. No cursing etc, just poetry.
He says fuck thru out the track
Accidentally downloaded it back in 2008 into my Nokia 7650 phone. Listened to this the on my way to school during 2nd year college. Nostalgia
I listened this song in my childhood 12 years ago. I never found it again. Now I'm here and have tears in my eyes, because the half of my life is flying tooooo fast. 🥺
