Lyrics Kuya Jerico - MC Zuko

A little pessimistic, I'm intermittent with inhibitions
Cross religion witnessin' intermissions in my decisions
Yeah
Kuya Jerico this for you man
This beats called "Remember '93", that's your year
Lazily writing, hazily fighting, defiance my flow is pure AU be quick to check the science
I got you
Yeah
I️ hardly knew you but I️ knew you in a past life
And that's for certain, before your curtains closed
I️ started doin' and pursuin' that rap life
Cuz you the person, that I️ write this for
That cool kid with the iPod nano after school
I was a toothpick tryna fit in actin' cool
Had to do whatever it took to be an Illipino
Cuz bein' Filipino wasn't cool enough your people laughed as soon as I approached ya
They brushed a cold shoulder
But you talked to me and I felt hopeful
Don't this sound bogus when I focus back in context
I was obsessed with the imaginary popularity complex
We ended up in the same high school
And when you founded the Hip Hop club I had to find you and sign too
I joined with the skill of a breakdancer
I was shocked to learn that you could pop, lock, and choreograph stuff, ha
When you asked us trivia questions I replied
I participated every time, hmm
You had an aura bout you so I️ learned more about you
And I️ found out you like to rap to move the crowd too
And that's 2 out of 4 elements
It was such an honor to know Jerico Vivar Culata the Hip Hop Club president
Effortless penmanship you were ahead of the rest
Bars sweeter than passing the lawyer test
Your flow was just, like
Empirical imperial flows, going out to all of you
Something something something venereal hoes I was hooked
Like Spongebob in that one episode
Boy you let em know
But I think it was more of the fact you were happily rappin
Cuz with our people there's tragedies stackin
Families blastin' down dreams before they actually happen
And I'm not saying that's everybody but it is an issue
Kuya Jerico we miss you
You were the MC that had impact intact like a missile
You were the class before me but it was way too early for yo dismissal
When I heard you passed away, man I couldn't believe it
I mean I was just speakin' to you the past weekend
I mean we could've had a different brotherhood from everybody else that you were seein'
Writin' bars and makin' hits in the evenin', you feel it
Cuz Tito A.P.L. showed me that we could go global
Kuya Bambu showed me that we could go local
Kuya D-Pryde from Canada showed me we could go mobile but you
Tsk, man you showed me that we could do it just by bein' normal
Horrible
But you know what? I️ do this for you
If you were here you'd prolly think that my music is cool
Cuz I️ definitely feel it back you had a track on YouTube with your boo
Sam called "Stupor" damn, what a blast
That's what really got me writin' in homeroom
The cold boost that I️ needed to be dope too
Yo timing was so soon
I️ get chills when I️ recite it
But those are signs that your shine still lights in my shit
Yeah
I got you, I see you
I know you see me
