[Intro] Yeah... Northwest to the world Seattle, Washington Zero on the track Rest in peace to my dawg Jeremy We still ridin'... [Verse 1] Back in the day when that funk hit the block so clean, Candy paint dreams, blowin' smoke out the window screen. Jeremy slid through, unbreakable heart, no fear, Chuck Taylors on the pavement, spreadin' love through the atmosphere. Kindest cat I ever met, chrome smile like a '64, Most amazin' soul walkin', leavin' love at every door. He caught that cancer once, swung back like a West Coast diss, Shook it off, head high, said, "We ain't done with this." Came back swingin', doubled up, hit it twice, no lie, Still showed up every day, never lost that look in his eye. Two jobs on the hustle, sunrise to the moon heβd slide, Stackin' dollars, stackin' hope, with his lady by his side. Every penny that he tucked, every hour on that clock, Was for a future that he built on solid bedrock. [Chorus] We in ghost mode, ridin' through the rain-soaked streets, Windows down, G-funk low, feel Jeremy in the beats. From the North End to the South, see his halo glow, When the bassline knock, that's my dawg in ghost mode. Washington on my back, yeah, we take that ride, Seattle lights flicker when his spirit slide. He ain't gone, he just switched to a different code, Rollin' with me every night, yeah, we in ghost mode. [Verse 2] Flew across the ocean to the Philippines, heart full flame, Chasin' love, chasin' purpose, never chasin' fame. Brought his queen back home, vows echo in the air, "I do" in the chapel, gold rings, fresh fade, no fear. Rings shinin' like Daytons on a summer night cruise, Then the doc dropped the bomb, like some bad hood news. Cancer strike three, homie, no time-outs left, But he stood ten toes, even facin' that death. We knew the clock tickin', like a G-funk hi-hat, Time slippin' like hydraulics when you drop in the back. Sat on the porch, cool breeze, speakers hummin' low, Talkin' life, talkin' death, how to let this go. He looked me in my eyes, bassline steady, no shake, Said, "When I hit heaven's gate and the Lord let me wake... I don't know how it works up there in that light, But if I get to choose who I watch over at night... [Chorus] We in ghost mode, ridin' through the rain-soaked streets, Windows down, G-funk low, feel Jeremy in the beats. From the North End to the South, see his halo glow, When the bassline knock, that's my dawg in ghost mode. Washington on my back, yeah, we take that ride, Seattle lights flicker when his spirit slide. He ain't gone, he just switched to a different code, Rollin' with me every night, yeah, we in ghost mode. [Bridge] Streetlights blur when the teardrops fall, But a real one rise when he hear that call. Chronic in the air, prayin' over this pain, Let the funk heal the hurt, let it wash like rain. He fought like a champ, never broke on hope, Even standin' on the edge of the steepest slope. Married his love, built dreams in a short-ass time, Showed the whole damn world how a king still shine. [Verse 3] "If I get to choose who my angel form floats over on earth, Zero, my brother, it's you, I been ridin' since birth." Man, that hit different, had to wipe my face, Tears drippin' on my Nikes while the snare kept pace. He married his love, took that last slow dance, Left the party as a legend, not a victim of chance. Final round rang out, but he stayed on his feet, Left this world on a high, never tasted defeat. Now the sun dip low over all these Seattle streets, And I can feel that halo when the 808 beats. From two jobs, two wars, to one eternal light, You the realest, dawg, still floatin' by my side tonight. When I'm cruisin' down Aurora or I-5 late, I can feel you in the rearview, twistin' my fate. Skkkrrtttt on the block, your laugh in the wind, Every chorus that I drop got your name built in. [Chorus] We in ghost mode, ridin' through the rain-soaked streets, Windows down, G-funk low, feel Jeremy in the beats. From the North End to the South, see his halo glow, When the bassline knock, that's my dawg in ghost mode. Washington on my back, yeah, we take that ride, Seattle lights flicker when his spirit slide. He ain't gone, he just switched to a different code, Rollin' with me every night, yeah, we in ghost mode. [Outro] Skkkrrtttt... rest easy, king, your name live forever, In the raindrops, in the sunshine, every bar, every letter. Washington state 4 life, on this road we steer, Jeremy's spirit in the passenger, I keep you right here. Zero out.
