Can I holla at you? Lemme holla at you[Verse 1: Special]Never forget the day I met youWe was destined for each other like aSon to his mother or a sister and brotherman this bond is deepWe go a couple years and don't even speakbut know it's love thoughCould never let em' dirty your nameI got the utmost respect for youCame back home and had to check for youWord 'round town is you locked downSome older niggas snatched you upgave you a rock nowDamn, hey could it be, she like"if you was me you wouldn't wait for meLiving fast youwouldn't mash the brakes for me"Big city slicker nigga on a higher trackBigger now but whenshe send a letter always write her backAnd time revealedshe feels that she settled too soonWhile she see me go for minesand she admire thatWe speak about timeas if we could just buy it backIf only it was that simple, damn I miss youCan I holla at youCan I holla at youLemme holla at youYeah I know its been a whilebut ain't no better time than nowCan I holla at youCan I holla at youAy, let me holla at youYeah I know its been a while, butYou betrayed meThe day you played my momma you played meCan't believe I let you in my heart niggaI should've, followed my instincts a stranger in my houseOnly five years old but sensed danger in my houseI was too young too scrap you but damn if I ain't want toI'm blowing up fast and I hope these words haunt youUh, thirteen years knew you more then my real popsPut me on to 'Pac, and all the rappers that killed copsWho would've thought you'd leave my momma high and dryLast words to a bitch nigga "why you lie? "Feeling bitter so these words might seem jumbledWhen you left I watched that lady crumbleI know by now you probably a old manBut I still I feel I won't be satisfied until we throw handsFor all the ass whoppin'sHeard you tryna' talk to, tell that punk don't call meYou ain't shit and I'm scared it rubbed off on meCan I holla at youCan I holla at youLemme holla at youYeah I know its been a whilebut ain't no better time than nowCan I holla at youCan I holla at youAy, let me holla at youYeah I know its been a while, butI heard you on that shit I hope it ain't trueWas hard to holla at you last time I came throughCould barely recognize you, naw nigga this ain't youCause you ain't lookin' like that nigga that I once knewAnd plus you act like you don't know meWe was homies, now you call me by my rap nameSee me do my thing, so you expecting me to act strangeAin't holla'ed but you on my mind niggaI dont forget the good times niggaWhite tee's in the club, jeans baggy as fuckSometimes I look back on my life, that was the happiest stuffYou had potential to be monumental, ville mentalityYou know that old kill or be killed mentalityI look at where you at now it's a, real fatalityCause where you supposed to be is on top, close to meChasin' hoes like the old daysBut now we overseas, dawgCongratulations on your seatYo my nigga can I holla at you?Can I holla at youCan I holla at youLemme holla at youYeah I know its been a whilebut ain't no better time than nowCan I holla at youCan I holla at youAy, let me holla at youYeah I know its been a while, but
