Obituary 2021
[Intro]
Yeah
[Hook]
Take these bars and play 'em in the cemetery
How many good people we lost?
Too many
Happy New Year, I hope your Christmas was merry
This is the 2021 Obituary
[Verse 1]
Biz Markie a legend that's what he is
A hip hop staple
Nobody Beats the Biz
Born April 8th, 1964
Grew up in Long Island his music raised us all
Just a Friend, top 40 in several countries
You caught the vapors
A real hip hop junkie
The cause of his death
He had diabetes
Condolences to his family I'm sure it's not easy
[Verse 2]
DMX a true Hip hop legend
Spiritual brother always counted his blessings
Born December 18th, 1970
A Yonkers, New York native he repped it heavily
Had a rough childhood but he survived
Sold over 74 million records worldwide
When X spoke he made the toughest thugs cry
A man of God, tears of joy fell from their eyes
The cause of his death
He had a heart attack
One day we all gotta go that's a fact
[Hook]
Take these bars and play 'em in the cemetery
How many great people we lost?
Too many
Happy New Year, I hope your Christmas was merry
This is the 2021 Obituary
[Verse 3]
John Madden
At football he was a master
Successful coach legendary sports caster
Born April 10th, 1936
In Austin, Minnesota the game was his niche
High school football star then he played in college
A injury ended his playing career but couldn't stop it
Youngest coach to reach a hundred regular season victories
Super bowl winner, made video game history
The cause of his death
Remains unannounced
His legacy'll live forever without a doubt
[Verse 4]
Young Dolph
Hip hop artist
Spoke about his experiences so his music was honest
Born July 27th, '85 to be specific
Chicago, Illinois but he moved to Memphis
Rough childhood, his grandmother taught him independence Debuted number four on the Billboards
He did it
Ain't forget where he came from it was cool to see him
Always giving back showing love to his community
The cause of his death
He was shot down
But he will always live through his music play it loud
[Hook]
Take these bars and play 'em in the cemetery
How many great people we lost?
Too many
Happy New Year I hope your Christmas was merry
This is the 2021 Obituary
[Verse 5]
Colin Powell
Destined to be great
First African American Secretary of state
Born April 5th, 1937
Harlem but raised in The Bronx
He attended
Morris but graduated from Washington University
With an MBA doctor of public service certainly
Decorated soldier, rose to the rank of general
Chairman of the joint chiefs of staff
Incredible
The cause of his death
COVID-19
Life is short, sky's the limit reign supreme
