Imagine yourself back at fourteen.
Nightmares haunted your mind so you feared to dream.
Then a blessing was born on the same day as you.
And you swore he wouldn't go the same way as you.
Now imagine one night laying his head to rest.
And telling him even though your my baby cousin I still feel blessed.
You were born on the same day as me.
And your future will be bright just wait you'll see.
Now imagine waking up the very next morning.
Not knowing that soon you would be mourning.
You reached over to touch your cousin and he fells so cold.
You knew then without a sound death snuck in and stole his soul.
You yell and ask God what have you done.
You took the life of pure innocence before it begun.
Could you imagine the pain that you feel.
If sleeping next to you your blessing and cousin was killed.
But see this isn't the only time death had came.
Now imagine after the funeral you jumped into the rap game.
This was a way of expressing your pain.
And your biggest motivation was a friend and Chase was his name.
See no matter how many battles you won or lost.
He always said you would take off.
Imagine him saying when you got a mansion.
He would be right there with you watching the strippers dancing.
Now imagine you calling him so he can hear your song called dangerous.
Then him saying to you thats why you gone be famous.
Now imagine three days later you getting a call from a dude.
He's yelling at the top of his lungs turn on the news.
So you turn on the news and your face turns pale.
Because again your life takes a trip to hell.
Another soul in your life has been erased.
And you turn to God and ask why, why chase?
Could you imagine the pain you would feel.
If in a year your life went through this ordeal.
Would you give up on life if your cousin died next to you.
If you lost a friend and motivation to success too.
Tell me what do you think this little boy did.
Do you think he survived this or gave up and quit.
Now open your eyes so I can tell you what you see.
That same little boy who lived that tragedy.
