M.P.G. Rap

[Chorus]
We love you, Marvin
We really miss you, Marvin
We love you, Marvin
Yes, we do
We love you, Marvin
We really miss you, Marvin
We love you, Marvin
Yes, we do

[Verse 1]
Sit back, but let your soul loosen up
While we give a little tribute to a legend tonight
So if you don't run away, then you would hear us say
Huh, this one is dedicated to Marvin Gaye
(We love you, Marvin)
It's so sad to hear, we can't believe you're gone
(We love you, Marvin)
There's still a piece of your life in every one of your songs
(We love you, Marvin)
You had emotion in your music and was the feeling was strong but
(We love you, Marvin)
You'll never be forgotten 'cause your name lives on in us
I got a feeling, not a sexual healing
But a bottom and a place that a gun did the killing
Now, people die day after day
But I never thought I'd see it happen to Marvin Gaye
And I really didn't think it would happen this way
So I wrote this rhyme 'cause I just wanna say
Now, stars die from dope and pills
But Marvin went down for last month's bills
Well, now it's known that his father put him to death
But before I'd kill my son I'd kill myself
But now I'm not tryin' to preach like a priest in a steeple
There's a few more things I'd like to say to you people
His mother is sad, his father's in pain
And it's hell to see a star's talents go down the drain
I know you're mad and I know you're frustrated
That Marvin Gaye's dead, and damn, we hate it
I felt the pain go through my heart
So, I better slow down and go to the start
Well, I came to my pad and kicked off my shoes
Then I hit the switch to the six o'clock news
The first thing I heard, the first thing they said
That Marvin Gaye was shot and has been announced dead
Now...

[Bridge]
Marvin, Marvin Gaye
Marvin, Marvin Gaye
Marvin, we sure 'nough miss you, Marvin

[Verse 2]
Takes a lifetime to live, a second to die
Here's just a few of the reasons why
A man killed his son like a professional thug
I have second on a ticker, only takes one slug
I was shocked, the only thing I could say
Is why would anybody kill Marvin Gaye?
Well, now the answers to the question are still unknown
So, to Marvin, here's a tribute on the microphone

[Bridge]
We love you, Marvin
We love you, Marvin

[Verse 3]
For a couple of nights, up late, I'll stay tryin'
To draw my own conclusion to the price he paid
But I guess that, I really never will know, huh
And some may say it was his time to go, huh
But really deep down, I think that we had all found
That everyone loved the warm, emotional sound, huh
And that's how we knew the man was good
No one could capture your heart like Mister Marvin Gaye could
Because his music was appealing, emotionally healing
With creative, inspirated, really hardcore feeling
But let me slow down and take it from the start, huh
When Gaye first hit the Top 10 chart
When he proved his talent and ability, huh
With "Pride and Joy" way back in '63
In '64 and '65 (Yeah), he did it again
That's two consecutive years his singles hit the Top 10
That's just a few of his achievements down on wax
And if i could, then I would give you more facts, huh
I would go on but my time is short
All you've got to do is give my rhyme support
Well, but less or more, or more for less, huh
What else can I say 'cause I have tried my best
Well, there's just one thing that I'll request
It's just remember my man that they have laid to rest

[Chorus]
We love you, Marvin
(It's so sad to hear, we can't believe you're gone)
We love you, Marvin
(There's still a piece of your life in every one of your songs)
We love you, Marvin
(You had emotion in your music and the feeling was strong)
We love you, Marvin
(But you'll never be forgotten 'cause your name lives on)

[Outro]
We love you, Marvin
We really miss you, Marvin
We love you, Marvin
Yes, we do
We love you, Marvin
We really miss you, Marvin
We love you, Marvin
Yes, we do
We love you, Marvin
We really miss you, Marvin
We love you, Marvin
Yes, we do
