"This is not what our future was meant to look like. I can't believe I said my final goodbye to you yesterday.' The More Drugs rapper is still in disbelief. "I'll never see you again for the rest of my lifetime. You loved me loud and proud. Thank you baby. You protected me; prayed for me, and inspired me. I find it hard to breathe, let alone find the words to explain how much I love you.' She goes on to say that she will miss AKA dearly. "I'm really going to miss all the special moments we've had. This really hurts! I can't come to terms with the fact that I'll never hear you say you love me, I'll never hear your laugh,' she says. "We had plans. There is no pain bigger than the pain of losing you. I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with you, I realise you're the one who spent the rest of your life with me.' She shares how she did not see this happening. "I don't know why things happen the way they do, but I'm questioning God right now. Why would he bring us together to only take you away? I just don't understand. I don't know how I'm going to do this, going on with my life without you, I just can't.'
