rest in peace - t. karras lyrics

[verse 1]
everyday, another person dies
and i can’t help but to look and cry
more and more they’re dropping off and i want them to live
i know nothing lasts forever but why you gotta get rid…
of the all time greats, the one that could of been stars
even the school shootings have gone too far
it’s made life into something that has no value
so tell me what the h-ll am i supposed to do
i see life as a commodity, a thing to hold dear
it’s a shame that apathy has spread to my peers
i see a bunch of mourning for the dearly departed
only for life to go on as if it were nothin’
i’m tired of seeing death everywhere that i go
we’ve lost a lot of talent, we’ve lost a lot of flows
i just hope that there isn’t another life lost
cause all of this death has got to stop

[chorus]

and they’re still dying, and they’re still dying

[verse 2]
i see a lot of stars murdered on the street
some take a lot of drugs and then od
everybody being forced into misery
being told to k!ll themselves, just let them be
it’s sad when people are happy for death
as if there aren’t people crying in their beds
for the loss of someone they cherish dearly
everything has an impact, do you hear me
there’s no p-ssing on, when you’re dead, you’re gone
and all you’ve got left is the memory of days forgone
but you can’t live in the past, you got to move on
for there’s no bringing it back, what’s done is done
so why is it hard for me to accept death
cause once i die, there’ll be nothing left
life will stop for me but it’ll keep going
i just have to hope that they won’t forget me

[verse 3]
in 2018, we’re dropping like flies
i never thought i’d realize…
that this might be the end, it hasn’t gotten better
as the bodies pile on, the tears get wetter
i thought 2016 was the last year we’d see death
but i was wrong and i wonder, what will be left
will we be doomed to live in a messed up world
destruction, famine, and death like none foretold
i don’t want to see that happen, not in my lifetime
so i gotta stay persistent with that state of mind
this world is small, there’s only so many graves
the world’s gotta change, so we can live another day
still i gotta give respects to those who have p-ssed on
they provided the foundation which has remained strong
and i’m hoping someday i can give thy honor
the genre of hip-hop has made me stronger

[outro]
guru of gang starr
rest in peace
old dirty b’
rest in peace
big l
rest in peace
heavy d
rest in peace
