R.i.p. Screw Lyrics


Yeah, yeah, yeah, Lil' Flip, Bizzy Bone
First Eazy, Houston Texas, then Pac, then Biggie
An' now I'm missin' Big Pun
Now DJ Screw, Aaliyah, wake up, America
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga
Look, I met Screw in nine four at a Fat Pat show
Back, when Club Unique, used to be Stadium Bowl
I walked up to his car with a cassette in my hand
Then I free styled for him 'cause this could be my only chance
Me an' my partner Jason, we started doin' mix tapes
We both smiled 'cause we knew this could be our big break
Then Screw wrote his number down an' said hit him next week
Get your list together an' pick all your beats
Well time went by an' my best friend died
Rest in peace Jason, dog, I wish your ass was alive

A couple months later, my second cousin passed
So that made me sit down an' realize what I had
I dropped 'Diamonds in yo face' an' 'Buy the car, buy the house'
An' Screw saw me at a show an' said, “Boy, you went off”
Two hours later, I was makin' tapes at his house
An' didn't nobody go to sleep until the mics went off
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga
I'm still on earth an' everything terrific
Hold me a spot, so we can reunite an' kick it
People don't understand life, but one day you'll get it
But for now, you better enjoy your one way ticket
An' Screw, I wanna thank you for the help you gave me
We had a relationship like Lil Wayne an' Baby
The day you gave me the plaque, sayin' 'Screwed Up Click'
The Freestyle King forever is Little Flip
You let me rip, the mic while you was scratchin' an' mixin'
I wasn't tryin' to run shit, I just played my position
We stood in the kitchen, smokin', laughin' an' sippin'
Gettin' high, me an' you eatin' a basket of chicken
Before we shot fool, you said, “Flip, come get a ass whippin'”
I ain't gone lie, Screw could shoot with one hand without missin'
I'm on a mission, I'm tryin' to Screw up the world
Lil' Flip gone hold it down, baby, that's my word
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga
Now the last verse, I ain't even gotta curse
I'm use to seein' your Impala, not you ridin' in a hearse
You set a trend, that'll never be forgotten
Just imagine Batman if he didn't have Robin
But I learned a lot, an' I'm glad I'm in a click
An' please believe, I still drop underground hits
I got your name tatted on me with a crown on top
You probably DJin' up there for Biggie Smalls an' Pac
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga
An' even though you gone, your memory lives on an' on, yeah
An' even though you died, you're still my nigga

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Wesley Eric Weston, Jr. (born March 3, 1981), better known by his stage name Lil' Flip, is a multi-Platinum American rapper. He is known for his freestyle ability and claims to have been on 1000 mixtapes.

Lil' Flip's career was launched when he released his first album "The Leprechaun". The album quickly gained national attention and spawned the hit single "I Can Do That". The album sold over 100,000 copies regionally and gained attention from Def Jam South, A & R, and well-known Houston rapper Scarface. He was briefly signed to Def Jam, but abruptly left the label a few years later after concerns about his financial earnings. He soon signed to Loud Records and began recording his first national debut album.

While recording his album, he was apparently shot by unknown assailants in a drive-by shooting. He survived the attack and pressed on to finish the album. At the age of 20, Lil' Flip released his sophomore album "Undaground Legend", his first nationally released album, which included the hit single "The Way We Ball" and a remix to his hit "I Can Do That". The album reached platinum status even though it didn't get much promotion from Loud Records.

Lil' Flip recorded his third album "U Gotta Feel Me" on Sony Records. This album was more commercial and featured Ludacris, Three 6 Mafia, and others. The album debuted at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and #3 on the Hip-Hop/R&B charts. It quickly became a crossover success with the Billboard Hot 100 Top 20 single "Game Over". The single used the Namco Pac-Man beat and the video showed Lil' Flip getting a tattoo while rapping to the single. The single reached #1 on the hip-hop charts. His follow-up single, the lover's anthem "Sunshine" featuring Lea, became the second hit single on Lil' Flip's album and went to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. It gained numerous requests on MTV 2 and BET. The album was certified double platinum.

Lil' Flip is known for his unique screwed style of freestyling (a form of slowed down rap technique) and for always releasing double disc CDs whenever he releases an album. He credits all of his success to the late DJ Screw and has tattooed DJ Screw's name on his arms. Lil' Flip has been credited for his lyrics by Three 6 Mafia, David Banner, Fam-Lay, Young Buck, UGK, Ludacris, among others. He has announced himself as the "King of The South" and the "Freestyle King".
