I Remember

[Chorus (Sampled)]
"Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days"

[Collision]
It's like
The past is now
Now is the future
The days
True indeed man

[Verse 1]
A star was born, dawnin' crescents in the haircut
For independence, streets playin', sparkles like a hand gun
Watchin' tapes of And 1, that's coupled with the new kicks
A come up with the thumper on the side would mean you cool shit
Obliged to you who true with
Disguised, a quiet kid
To riot
Learnin' from the older guys made me wiser
Than Leviathan with pride
The inner stride of lies
Fuselage the day you might get open then you die
Deeper wells that's in the eye, the day I made my mother cry
Cryin' out to Danny 'cause I couldn't say goodbye
The last time we dapped was Mattapan and then he slide
Fast forward in my dreams, told me Biggie down to ride
Remember it's a breather every time you tend to sigh
To the sky, creepin' desperation, reaper with the scythe
Take away what isn't motivational for inspiration
'Cause a pink slip will take you out your crib for renovation
Bring you to ya rise

[Chorus (Sampled)]
"Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days"

[Verse 2]
Rarely rememberin' the past nowadays
Until somebody bringin' up its effect on these latter days
Mortal Kombat
Win or lose on a Saturday
To grow as mortals fightin' just to win in the unnatural way
While disaster play
Desensitized to cast away the innocence within
While leaders say we born to blast away
They call it sin that pull in smoke just like a pack a day
To keep they hell afloat inside your mental where the pasture lay
A "Footprints" poem posted up while I comb away the curtain made of beads
Beaded sweat up on my knees
Keep your back straight and keep the branches from the leaves
It's symbolic now I separate the flowers from the seed
This seed is now a flower bear the fruit like a disease
Bearin' changes to extend your life to your sincerities
Why not just do it now
Never bowin' to no timely greed
Just to be regrettin' shit
The future from a present deed

[Chorus (Sampled)]
"Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days I remember"
"I remember" ([?]) "Those were—those were—those were—
Those were the days"

[Outro]
Stand tall
True indeed
Yeah
History
To keep goin'
Never forget
Never regret
Yeah
P
Sin City
Uh
Haiti
'Til I'm gone
So on and so on
