11. Dear Old Nicki iM1
[00:13.77] Maybe you died 'cause everybody ask me where you at
[00:17.22] I tried to channel you in hopes that I could steer you back
[00:20.68] But it's like every intersection we just missed each other
[00:24.13] You got your fans waitin', tell me you ain't six feet under
[00:27.58] And tell me that you comin' back and you just took a break
[00:31.04] Maybe I blamed you for everything, that was my mistake
[00:34.22] In hindsight, I loved your rawness and I loved your edge
[00:37.92] 'Cause it was you who talked me down from jumpin' off the ledge
[00:41.13] Your earrings bamboo, your long nails too
[00:44.58] Your BMW every time you came through
[00:48.04] You was the brave heart, you stole Wayne heart
[00:51.49] You never switched it up, you played the same part
[00:55.21] But I needed to grow, and I needed to know
[00:58.40] Were there some things inside of me that I needed to show?
[01:02.12] So I just deaded you, left you in all black
[01:05.04] But dear old Nicki, please call back
[01:08.22] You told me you'd come when I needed you
[01:14.60] And you said it so sweetly, I believed you
[01:21.50] But I'm standing here calling, I can't see you
[01:28.41] But I am holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[01:32.13] To that
[01:35.85] Yo, did I chase the glitz and glamour, money, fame, and power?
[01:39.57] 'Cause if so, that will forever go down my lamest hour
[01:43.08] I shoulda kept you with me, gettin' at them nameless cowards
[01:46.58] They was no match for you, couldn't defeat your prowess
[01:50.07] I had to make them changes, I hope you understood
[01:53.27] You see, for every bad, I did a ton of good
[01:56.74] But you was underground and I was mainstream
[01:59.92] I live the life now that we would daydream
[02:03.38] My only wish is you come enjoy it with me
[02:07.10] Get on them conference calls, go meet the lawyers with me
[02:10.29] The money came, yeah, I tripled and quadrupled it
[02:13.74] But I still miss us when we was just on some stupid shit
[02:17.19] And it's still fuck the media
[02:19.85] They ridiculed you, never believed in ya
[02:24.10] They just deaded you, left you in all black
[02:27.28] But dear old Nicki, please call back
[02:30.74] You told me you'd come when I needed you
[02:36.84] And you said it so sweetly, I believed you
[02:43.75] But I'm standing here calling, I can't see you
[02:51.74] But I am holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[02:54.93] To that
[02:57.87] And yes, I'm holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[03:01.06] And yes, I'm holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[03:04.24] And yes, I'm holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[03:07.96] To that
[03:11.14] And yes, I'm holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[03:14.61] And yes, I'm holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[03:18.06] And yes, I'm holdin' you, holdin' you, holdin' you
[03:21.79] To that
