This DMX verse on I Am got me feeling some type of way

[Brosef]

X basically telling the world how to approach life when you on top

Then goes around and does the same "dumb shyt," and throws his life away

shyt must be depressing as hell for him to listen to

X one of the greatest, hate it had to be him



Everyday shyt, around the way shyt got me stressed (what)
So i keep on the vest in case a nikka wanna test (uh)
I got no time for games cause I'm all grown up
You wanna joke nikka? laugh when you get blown up (come on)
See how funny it is when your kids aint got no father
Cause you played it sweet now you floating in the harbor (for real)
shyt is hectic so respect it for your health (what)
Didn't think it was right, you should've checked it yourself (come on)
Life is too short to get caught up in some dumb shyt
Wake up one day, 40 years old on some bum shyt
Time flew by, you was too fly to see the light
Everyday it's getting darker then comes the night
Now what? (what) realize that you ain't got shyt (uh)
Not long ago you was the man on some hot shyt
So just peep the flow yo, cause you already in this
Make sure your shyt is right kid and handle your business (uh huh)

RIP X

I know its celebrate his legacy time right now

but honesty as someone who fukked with him heavy as a kid, I'm upset and disappointed in him for going out the way he did

if u couldn't stay on solid ground for the millions of people who admired you and were fans you should have least made it your duty to live a long life and be there for your Fifteen children

Every rappers dream would be to reach the heights that X did in music and film.

eh, after Kobes death and covid everything just seems like a never ending nightmare so part of me expected this

I hope Lil Wayne is paying attention and doesn't go out like this next

X dying from an overdose will never be a good look and I'm hurt that it had to end this way for him
