Pre-Chorus: NoCap 
Yeah, didn't write this song, but I'm recordin' with this lead on me 
Know it sound?strange,?but I'ma die?for all my dead homies 
Nobody really?know how he feels 
I always thought that you would be here 
Why do I always question God, but I never pray? 
I think about you, I end up cryin' on my best days 
Tryna convince me to get better, naw, naw, naw, naw 
I'd be lyin' if I didn't say I really miss my dawgs 
It's so much of pain in us, always feel like I'm givin' up 
It ain't the same no more, death brought me anger 
I'm followed by angels and I got some dyin' love 
Soon as I got rich, soon as I got famous

Chorus: NoCap 
Why did you leave? 
If you was here, how would it be? 
Oh, oh 
I'm protected by these ghetto angels 
Oh, woah 
I'm protected by the hood gangsters

Verse 1: Lil Durk 
When the streets don't show you love, that feeling a bitch ain't it? 
When a nigga die, the world may fun, that feeling sick ain't it? 
I'm from Chicago where they turn yo death date to a case 
You hear the same shit when a nigga die they say it's under investigation 
You'll find the killer who killed my cousin, find the killer who killed Kenneka Jenkins 
That's why they slide without thinking, nobody safe when I'm breathing (Ohhhhh) 
I'm the voice of the streets I ain't tryna be a big homie 
Other cities got structures, Chicago ain't got big homies 
Having yo gun on you everyday that shit don't mean shit don't it 
It's who after us first, my cousin died with a stick on 'em 
I'ont see no lies in here, I feel like crying in here 
He spent his life on security, he got life he crying for real 
He say I'll give you this pain through, they lost they souls to the streets but they my ghetto Angel's 
NoCap the streets wanna hear me on this remix, they wanna hear my pain too 
I seen a [?] in Miami, I text I hope this ain't you 
I wanna call and say...

Chorus: NoCap
Why did you leave?
If you was here, how would it be?
Oh, oh
I'm protected by these ghetto angels
Oh, woah
I'm protected by the hood gangsters

Verse 2: Jagged Edge
I thank God that I'm still here, [?]
Maybe lessons from the bullpen, or the blessings from the highest
You just don't know
You never have to see yo homie drop its alot
When you walking for the life who knows when it stops
Gotta give it straight, screaming no chase
Cause I never question God, I know it's a better place
I know it's a marathon not just a race
Can't wait to see the looks on all my homies face
Can't wait until the day that we embrace (Ohhhhh)
Can't wait until the day that we embrace (Ooooo)
(Ohhhhhh)

Chorus: NoCap
Why did you leave?
If you was here, how would it be?
Oh, oh
I'm protected by these ghetto angels
Oh, woah
I'm protected by the hood gangsters
