Some of my friends can't get it right Some of my friends been getting married
I got friends in a prison cell I got friends in a cemetery
My good friend's been doing time I got a letter from him last February
I know it's *** up But I try to tell him that the situation's
just temporary Hey bro, it's been a minute now
Tell me how you been living now He wrote me back, he said, things are good
Jay Things are good, they just different now
Still ain't sure when I'm getting out A lot of friends, they been switching out
He knows it, I know it He shouldn't be in this position now
Bad *** keep happening The good people is baffling
Time and time again, this ain't new But I guess I gotta keep balancing
Tryna keep spirits up high But *** ain't always right
I ain't got no sleep, these problems Kept me up last night, it's like
You know that I'm mean and all this *** that I say
We gon' kick it like the good old days When you get out, I'll take a rain check
I guess I'll take a rain check
Hey, can you feel the pain yet? Tired of the same ***
Holding on for dear life I'm running out of patience
Hey, can I get a rain check? Can I get a rain check?
Sick and tired of the same *** Running out of patience
I know I keep on asking, but Can I take a rain check?
I guess I'll take a rain check
I hate thinking back on this Fucks with my peace of mind
Story about a homie named Greg That I met at high school, was a real good guy
Known in town as a respected dude Big ol' smile and a sense of humor
Type of kid who had his *** together You could tell he had a bright future
Type of energy that stuck with me The way he moved, so he stuck with me
Way back when I was writing raps Used to bump my ***, man, he'd *** with me
He told me, Jerry, brother, you a superstar Back then, that was reassurance
I had 50 fans and a mixtape On a burned CD, praying people heard it
Fast forward a bunch of years later He would message me, would always keep in touch
Showing love, just saying, keep it up Around that time, I started heating up
Shortly after, I got bad news Nothing short of a disaster
Got a call from a family friend That said Greg is sick, he has cancer
How's that possible? He's 26, he'll be the dog I got hope
They said it's in his brain, it's worst case scenario
It's sad, but chances are low 12 months if he's lucky
And it's rare that people get lucky Truth be told, man, it *** me up
I watched the situation get ugly When he got sick, we chilled like two or three times
Gotta come clean, I can't lie He was so strong that every time we talk about it
I could barely even look him in the eyes He passed away just like the doctor said he would
Damn, I wish that they were wrong
Cause I'd much rather be kicking it Instead of writing this song
Guess I'll take a rain check
I guess I'll take a rain check
Ayy, can you feel the pain yet? Tired of the same ***
Holding on for dear life, I'm running out of patience
Ayy, can I get a rain check?
Ayy, can I get a rain check?
Sick and tired of the same *** Running out of patience
I know I keep on asking, but Can I take a rain check?
I guess I'll take a
Time slipped away from me Time slipped away
Time slipped away from me Time slipped away
Time slipped away from me Time slipped away
Goodbye
Time slipped away from me Time slipped away
Time slipped away
I guess I'll take a rain check
Ayy, can you feel the pain yet? Tired of the same ***
Holding on for dear life, I'm running out of patience
Ayy, can I get a rain check?
Can I get a rain check?
Sick and tired of the same *** Running out of patience
I know I keep on asking, but Can I take a rain check?
I guess I'll take a
