Lyrics
[Intro]
Rest in heaven, Unc Roy
You made it, unc
Everything you told me still echo in my chest
[Verse 1]
I wouldn't be right if I ain't write about you, unc
You the reason I peep game when the world actin' punk
I remember every word you dropped while breakin' down that pack
Told me nephew listen clear these dudes don't give you jack
You said watch every handshake every laugh every grin
Told me loyalty rare and most folks ain't your kin
Fort Wayne nights you told me stay sharp when I roam
Said if you carry somethin' nephew don't freeze make it home
Not glorifyin' nothin' just the lessons you gave
How to move with my eyes open how to dodge early graves
You was cut from a cloth that the world don't sew
Every gem you dropped still help me grow
[Hook]
Unc Roy
Rest in heaven unc you made it
Everything you taught me I never misplaced it
You kept me solid when the world tried to break it
Unc Roy
Your name forever sacred
[Verse 2]
Unc Tyrone gave me his crib in Eden Greens
Suddenly I'm 16 livin' grown man scenes
Had a lil' clique five deep thought we runnin' the block
Mind full of murda thoughts but really just trauma in shock
Serving work tryna hustle tryna climb out the gutter
Untie on that stuff but I still loved my auntie no stutter
Forgive me untie
I needed bread just to breathe
Said here you go baby even when she ain't have what I need
Life had me movin' reckless but your voice kept me steady
Every time I felt lost unc your lessons stayed ready
Taught me survival taught me how to read a room
Taught me storms don't last even when they feel like doom
[Hook]
Unc Roy
Rest in heaven unc you made it
Everything you taught me I never misplaced it
You kept me solid when the world tried to break it
Unc Roy
Your name forever sacred
[Bridge]
You ain't gone you just moved to a higher place
I still feel you when I'm thinkin' when I'm wipin' my face
You the reason I'm still standin' still fightin' my fate
Rest in heaven unc
Your love never came late
[Hook]
Unc Roy
Rest in heaven unc you made it
Everything you taught me I never misplaced it
You kept me solid when the world tried to break it
Unc Roy
Your name forever sacred
