스눕독(Snoop Dogg)의 코비 브라이언트(Kobe Bryant) 헌정곡

불의의 사고가 아니었다면 42번째 생일을 맞이했을 코비 브라이언트.

코비 브라이언트의 열렬한 팬이자 친구인 스눕독(Snoop Dogg)이 지난 6월 발표한 헌정곡. 

Rest In Peace.

The stage is set, It's Go time,

Pick the scene, Me in the mix,

It's 96, and Rising from the phily streets, Is a Teen trying to find his directions, And make that connection,

Not knowing what to expect then, Taking it Steps by Steps then,

You're weather for the rain, In you Heart & in your Brain,Trying to learn it not to rain, Ice Water in your veins.

Your Aim cover new lane, Cover render canvas with your paint,

In a Picture to end up a fixture, Too large, for any frame,

You beat us by a mile, All Grit no Smile, A new Golden Shine, Yeah, Let's dot it Mamba Style !

And then you added your chapters, All in our rafters,

Rookie Year, You won the Dunk Show, All-star in the next Year, Then you shifted to your next gear !

Gold Medals as your neck wear, Back to Back to Back, Champions ! Going for the Pantheon !

The LA X Factor, Dropped 81 on the Raptors !

From Compton to Long Beach,to Watch, We all peaked and watched You !

In your moments, you're ballin' and rollin' and balling and golding in Purple you Shine !

What's turn up, With zero associate, You searched the whole world for your Kind.

Then you prove Most Valuable Man from Crenshaw to Malibu.

We were just all Proud of You.

And for anybody doubting you, You Face became a new Mantlepiece Man it was Mamba Insanity,

You're growing your familly, A friend, A Leader, Understandably,

And You did candidly, A Life of Humanity.

From the Pac's and the Nipsey's To the Snoop's and the Dre's Your Reign in the City remains,

From Ocean to San Vicente,

You're the Truth Boy, Greatness in your name, Enshrine your shine, Critically-acclaimed,

So let it ring out, East Side to the West Side,

This is your City, Much Love for the Ride.
