Missin' U Lyrics


This for you, there ain't one day that go by
Where I don't think about you, yeah
This for my mother, rest in peace
To you and yours, yeah, ride with me, come onI know you watching me, guiding me
I know from up there it's like you watching 'Menace to Society'
Listen you was thirty-two I was only nine
But I've learned so much with so little timeNow I'm surrounded by the best of my kind, we pulled it all together
Couldn't waste your pearls on swine ma, you taught me better
You can't protect me or expect me to not struggle an' fight
'Cause see death is a part of lifeWhat I wouldn't give for one more day wit you
One last embrace and face to face wit you
Explain everything that made me what I am a grown man
From the ground up with my own handsWill I forget you? Never
Down right angry sometimes that we ain't here together
You can feel your roots and see how strong we are
Who would've thought we could get this far? Damn I miss youEven though I know it's been tough
I can't stress enough no matter what, mama I love you
You've always been there by my side

You've taught me the wrong from the right, mama I love youYesterday was your fifty-ninth birthday
Time flew missing you in the worst way
I still feel the same pain since the first day
You left to death on God's requestI can't complain through the years mama I've been stressed
Through the bullets and the bad times I've been blessed
For the times that I fail but I tried my best
Able to do for my loved ones is real successYour the source of my strength I was blessed with your gifts
Your insights, your wisdom, your penmanship
Fun an' games, I'm doing thangs, I know you wouldn't agree with
What I drink, what I smoke, who I be withYou made sure I got some love when there wasn't none
Opened up my heart showed the world where I'm coming from
Your little grandson is just like your little boy
Mama what you built here no man can ever destroy, your bundle of joyI've been through so much
I lose touch and sometimes I feel that life sucks
My woman try to get close I push her away
She wanna talk I just sit there with nothing to sayFeel me, it's all the pain I contain on the inside
You in the right place but left me at the wrong time
Used to cook, clean, and sing me to sleep
Now I only go to bed with my heat, damn I miss youEven though I know it's been tough
I can't stress enough no matter what, mama I love you
You've always been there by my side
You've taught me the wrong from the right, mama I love youThe school of hard knocks where I learned life's lessons
With not enough answers and too many questions
When you had me you gave birth to a soldier
Now I'm much older, now the world much colderOur lives in the hands of politicians that don't care
We ponds in the game biological warfare
The family's so spread out an' disconnected
Trying to hold things together put my soul on recordsIt's hard, you know your daughter had a baby too
A beautiful baby girl just another little piece of you
Another branch we can add to the family tree
Responsibility bringing out the man in meYou ain't a man if you're not taking care of home
Raise and protect my own, until they full-grown
No matter how much these streets try to change me
I'm never gon' forget how you raised me, I love you, foreverEven though I know it's been tough
I can't stress enough no matter what, mama I love you
You've always been there by my side
You've taught me the wrong from the right, mama I love youYeah, all the mothers, all the daughters, yeah, come on
Sun, moon, earth, yeah, this for you, damn, damn I miss you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Alvin Nathaniel Joiner (born September 18, 1974 in Detroit, Michigan), better known by his stage name Xzibit, is an American rapper, actor, and host of MTV's Pimp My Ride. He began his music career as a member of the Likwit Crew, a loose collective of West Coast rappers including King Tee, Defari, and Tha Alkaholiks. He released his solo debut album 'At The Speed Of Life' in 1996 and has since released 5 more albums, his latest being Full Circle, released in 2006. His new album Napalm is expected to be released sometime in 2012.

Born in Detroit, Michigan, Joiner moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, with his father when he was ten years old (his mother had passed away when he was nine years old). Around this time, as he did not have any entertainment, he began writing poems. Around the age of 13, he started getting into trouble with the local police. By the time he was 14, he served a short stint in juvenile detention. Finally around 17 years old he had been expelled from several Albuquerque high schools for allegedly raping his guidance counselers. At that point, he moved with $3,000 to Los Angeles, California in his purple and black Geo Tracker to pursue his dream.

Xzibit got his start as a member of the Likwit Crew a loose collective of West Coast rappers including Tha Alkaholiks and King T. After touring with them in 1995, Loud Records released the feisty young rapper's debut album, At The Speed Of Life (1996). The album, produced by DJ Muggs of Cypress Hill and Diamond D, became an underground hit. When Xzibit released his follow-up, 40 Dayz & 40 Nightz (1998), he was again heralded as one of the West Coast's most promising talents.

He expanded his following with a series of increasingly superstar-laced albums beginning in the late 1990s, ultimately aligning himself with hip hop kingpin Dr. Dre. Xzibit's big breakthrough came when he joined Snoop Dogg for the Dr. Dre-produced hit, "Bitch Please". What followed were some high profile guest appearances on Dr. Dre's multi-platinum Chronic 2001, on songs like "What's the difference?" and the posse song "Some L.A. Niggaz". By this time, Dre had invited the young rapper to crisscross America during summer 2000 with the massive "Up in Smoke" tour, which featured Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and Ice Cube, among many others. That winter, Loud released Xzibit's biggest-budget album yet, Restless with Dr. Dre as executive producer, which boasted the single "X". The song became the rapper's biggest hit yet, and though it did not top the charts or break him into heavy rotation on either urban radio or MTV, the album went platinum.

Two years later, Xzibit returned with another big-budget superstar-laced album, Man Vs. Machine, yet again he fell a bit short of mainstream success. He continued to collaborate with his closest West Coast colleagues, primarily Ras Kass and Saafir with whom he formed The Golden State Project rap collective [1], and tha Liks, along with bigger names like Snoop Doggand Eminem. His allegiance to the West Coast and former colleagues continued to win him much respect from his fans, who remained dedicated if not massive in number. Weapons of Mass Destruction followed two years later.

To kick off the Back II Basics tour Xzibit will take part in the Gumball 3000 Rally - a 5000km (3000mile) car rally that winds its way throughout Europe.

The rapper has found a broader audience since landing his role on MTV's "Pimp My Ride," which films custom auto makeovers awarded to random winners. He recently recorded an episode of Pimp My Ride with California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger on an Earth Day special to promote the importance of global warming.
