Songtexte: Too Phat. If I Die Tonight.

Verse 1

If I die tonight

What would I do

On my last day

I know I'd wake early

In the morn' for crack

Of dawn's last pray

Then prolly go for breakfast

Like I used to do

Fried kuey teow FAM

And roti canai at Raju's

With my boo

And friends from way back

Neighborhood homies

Extended fam

They only know me

As that same cat

With that shaved head

Rocking Cross Colors

Sneaks to school

Writin' rhymes at the back of class

Playing tricks on fools

Then I'd come back to the crib

Tidy up a bit

Y'all know my room's messy

Though classy

Start arrange my ish

Line up my shoes one by one

Start with Jordans

And end with them Air Force Ones

Put a Post-it on the tongue

Of each one

With the name of each dun

I think I know my homies

And who would want which one

Get on the phone

And holla' at everybody

It's nearly noon

Gots to have lunch

With the family

Then spend the last day

I don't know

Try do a million other things

Hoping somehow

Time will slow

I guess what

I'm trying to say is

Take everyday

Like it was your last

Work towards your dreams

Before you pass

And have a blast

While you at it

'Cause we don't know

When we go go

So make the best of it

Just keep it real to yourself

And to all people

If y'all lost somebody before

Remember there'll be a sequel





Chorus (2x)

If I die tonight

You know it'll be alright

Just smile for me

Reminisce the fond memories





Verse 2

Well if I die tonight

I wonder

Where I'll be tomorrow

Nobody cry please

Push away the sorrow

'Cause I ain't been

The best of men

The best of friends

The best of mom

And daddy's last son

The best of anything

Tell Joe here's a last one

If I die tonight

Would I be forgiven

By all the people

I been slackin' with

When I was livin'?

Those who I hurt their hearts

Took advantage of

And even lied to


Hug you one last time

For forgiveness

Yeah I would like to

If I die tonight

Would you feel the loss?

Tomorrow would you dial

My number by accident

Then suddenly... pause?

If I die tonight

I wonder who would get

To keep my caps and shoes

Jerseys, even my little

Stuffed crocodile Coco too

Get my cell phone

Message everyone from A to Z

Tell 'em this ain't Malique

He passed away last night

And pray he rest in peace

If I die tonight

Would you think of my room

When you see blue

Wanted to clean it up this morning

But then I never knew

If I die tonight

What would happen to Tim

How long would it take

Before she kissed another man?...

God damn...

At fast food joints

Would she still order

The same combo meal for two?

Things I wish I knew...





Chorus (2X)

If I die tonight

You know it'll be alright

Just smile for me

Reminisce the fond memories





Verse 3

A cute lil' thing

To many eyes

To me you were simply

A beautiful thing

I tell no lies

We went from

Mere invisible friends

To pals real tight

Rendezvous up on the net

To chitty chat all night

I used to pick you up

Until you got your own ride

A slammin' two door whip

A grey 36-72

Lookin' all slick

Remember when I asked why this

You said because it's real fast

So you can rush

To see your boy after class

The last time

We met was '01 September

You left feelin' upset over... something

I can't remember...

I never apologized

Till January 10th 2003

When I heard you passed away

When I was deep in my sleep

Your loss taught me

Not to take my friends for granted

Misunderstandings

Gotta slam it quick

Death you never plan it

You're sorely missed down here Wawyn

Rest in peace

This too shall pass

But our true friendship will never cease...

Love...





Chorus (till end)

If I die tonight

You know it'll be alright

Just smile for me

Reminisce the fond memories
