| Ayo, young nigga, I-, Ayo!
|
| I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| When we was down and out for days
|
| Young Nigga, I remember
|
| They said we wouldn’t exist
|
| I can show you better than I say it
|
| Young nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| Damnit man, Damnit man, Ayo!
|
| Young Nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| I said the struggle gon' always make us
|
| Young nigga, I remember
|
| Ain’t no stopping it, a hell nah
|
| I got bills I’m obligated to, and you know
|
| It’s still that struggle rap shit everyday, ain’t shit changed
|
| But one thing that I refuse to do is maintain
|
| I you know anything you want it life can be obtained
|
| Know that there ain’t no such thing as living twice, so get it while you can
|
| Niggas thought it really wasn’t what it was though
|
| Til' you realize it’s all in your brain
|
| Now I got everybody hollering out Chaz French
|
| But these things take time and it’s so strange (so strange)
|
| I remember back in the day
|
| When Matt Reed was packing a K
|
| And we had no where else to stay
|
| Lived in a hotel for 30 a day
|
| Had no way to pay
|
| Spent everything we had on Newports and drinks
|
| Mollys and weed
|
| Lifestyle consisted of drugs and dreams
|
| And no where to sleep or eat
|
| But young nigga…
|
| I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| When I was miles and miles away
|
| Young Nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| All Mama had for me was love and a prayer
|
| Young nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| When shawty telling me that she’ll always be there
|
| I don’t think that she remembers
|
| But she damn sure can’t forget
|
| Well either way it go. |
| I’m going to always forgive her
|
| Just make sure that you remeber…
|
| That everything ain’t what it seems
|
| And good times don’t last forever
|
| But could last for a lifetime
|
| Let’s make memories
|
| And remember to strive off good energy
|
| And always recognize fake-nigga tendencies
|
| Put nothing before god and the family
|
| Middle finger to mediocracy
|
| Let’s stay true to your legacy, cuh'-cuh'…
|
| I remember back in the day
|
| When I got jumped when I lived in the Trey
|
| You know jealousy get the best of niggas
|
| When they barely know you but still feeling a way
|
| On to the next, I got pictures to paint
|
| Might fly out my ex’s to show them my place
|
| When you get change you gon' see how they change
|
| Just make sure you never forget where you came!
|
| Young nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget? |
| (Hay!)
|
| When we was down and out for days
|
| Young Nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| I said the struggle gon' always make us
|
| Young nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| Damnit man, Damnit man, Ayo!
|
| Young nigga, I remember
|
| How can I forget?
|
| Yeah, I said the struggle gon' always make us |
