Quavo is immortalizing his music collaborator and nephew, Takeoff, in a new song just months after his death.
Takeoff, born Kirsnik Khari Ball, died Nov. 1 after he was shot in the head and back as more than 30 people were leaving a private party at a bowling center in Houston. Police have said the gunfire followed a disagreement over a “lucrative” game of dice, but that Takeoff was not involved and was “an innocent bystander.”
Police arrested suspect, Patrick Xavier Clark, on murder charges in connection with the fatal shooting on Dec. 1. He was released from the Harris County jail Tuesday on a $1 million bond, according to court records. His attorney, Letitia Quinones, has said Clark has a “valid and meritorious claim for self-defense.”
Takeoff’s death at 28 shook the music world and those closest to him including his fellow Migos members Offset and Quavo who remembered the youngest member of their group as an “angel.”

In a heartfelt post after Takeoff’s memorial service in Atlanta on Nov. 11, Quavo recalled memories from their youth when they collected WWE action figures and remembered Takeoff’s passion for music.
“Dear Take, It’s so hard to tell you ima miss you because you (were) always with me and we did everything together,” Quavo wrote on Instagram. “Since we were kids you (have) been by my side looking up at me.”
Quavo continued to remember Takeoff Wednesday with a new song, “Without You,” featuring Vory. He shared the song on Instagram, writing: “Long Live Take Infinity.”
Here are the full lyrics of the emotional song.

Quavo’s ‘Without You’ lyrics
Tears rollin’ down my eyes
Can’t tell you how many times I cried
Days ain’t the same without you
I don’t know if I’m the same without you
Remember the days we smoked big blunts together?
Remember the days we rocked out Coachella?
Remember the days we ain’t have our (expletive) together?
On the Nawfside, times were hard, but them days was better
I wish I had a time machine
Just so you can take a ride with me
I miss just how you smile at me
Unc and Phew until infinity
I wish I had a time machine
So you can take a ride with me
Wrap my arms around and hold you tight, Phew
So you can never say goodbye to me
Out in the galaxy, up in the stars
Over the universe, it’s bigger than Mars
See you in Heaven, see you in Heaven
When I see you in Heaven, I’ma be with my dog
Out in the galaxy, up in the stars
Over the universe, it’s bigger than Mars
See you in Heaven, see you in Heaven
When I see you in Heaven, I’ma be with my dog
Ion know if I’m the same without you
It ain’t no gang without you
Birthdays ain’t the same without you
Christmas ain’t the same without you
I’ma represent your name when it’s ’bout you
I wouldn’t have got it out the mud without you
It’s hard to see Mama Love without you
It’s hard to see Mama Love without you
Out in the galaxy, up in the stars
Over the universe, it’s bigger than Mars
See you in Heaven, see you in Heaven
When I see you in Heaven, I’ma be with my dog
Out in the galaxy, up in the stars
Over the universe, it’s bigger than Mars
See you in Heaven, see you in Heaven
When I see you in Heaven, I’ma be with my dog
Yeah, be with my dog
Yeah, be with my dog
I wish I had a time machine
So you can take a ride with me
But I know it ain’t work that way
And I’ll see you again someday
Take, Take
Take, I’m sorry
Take, I’m sorry
Take, I’m sorry
Take
