k-rino - z.i.n. lyrics
[intro]
love you, brother
thinking ‘bout the homie z.i.n., the person that you was
and knowing you had this track, we gon’ rep it for you
come on, uh
[verse 1]
man, what would z.i.n. do on this track?
probably spit some facts, make it blend smooth
then use some deep wisdom to help us improve
maybe drop a little knowledge or spit what he been through
dj, producer and sick with a pen too
jack of all trades, mentally sharp as a ginsu
true-to-the-heart brother as sure as the wind blew
hit the stage with a band and rip up a venue
he could be the artist or play the manager role
first met you at [?] when we was at damage control
then you got your own show, still playing our music though
used to come to third ward and rock at your studio
lot of greats came through the door every other day
worked with ‘em all from dead prez to brother j
can’t forget your positive spirit and plus i like to say
what you did for the people can never be wiped away, c’mon
[chorus x2]
z, i to the n
z, i to the n
z, i to the n
i’ma let the people see why you a friend
[verse 2]
every genre, facet, man you was a magnate
n0body had a problem being pulled into your dragnet
community strategist, champion, catalyst
frontline activist, bigger than some rapping sh..
all about the action, not into that cheap talk
last time i saw you, you was out at the peace walk
always shedding light so we wouldn’t be lost
and show nothing but love any time that we crossed
tired of [?], still doing what was necessary
legacy set ‘cause you was a real visionary
job done ‘cause you carried the torch you was meant to carry
your work is eternal even though your flesh was temporary
down with ya ’til the end, that’s the man that we know
everyday we pray allah bless your family, bro
all real radio, ain’t no breaking them ties
shoutout to everybody that’s keeping the station alive, listen
[chorus]
z, i to the n
z, i to the n
z, i to the n
i’ma let the people see why you a friend
[verse 3]
when i think about the homie, can’t lie, it’s sorta sad
can’t speak for everybody but i never saw him mad
glad to know that you was on our team in this fight
every dream in your sight, you would work to bring it to light
one of the few that really knew what unity means
picking up trash, keeping the community clean
you was rare ‘cause most of these other rappers be scared
one of the few artists in the city who actually cared
the loss is still real, hard for people to handle
i learned something every time i heard you speak on the panel
can’t believe you ain’t around no more, but then again
but we gon’ always rep for z.i.n., c’mon
[chorus x3]
z, i to the n
z, i to the n
z, i to the n
i’ma let the people see why you a friend
