‘Reminder’ is inspired by childhood love, a first crush that no matter where you go in life, you can’t leave behind. Physically, LTtheMonk describes seeing beautiful Canadian and American women that remind him of his first love back in South London, England, but metaphorically, the concept is all ab...
[Intro]
I wanna be your intern
Cuz you remind me of
You remind me of
[Verse 1]
I ain’t built for the modern age
Analyzing reply time
Is a mono maze
I’m polyamorous
Loving her in my different ways
I wanna see the real groove
When the record plays
I wanna feel the cassette deck
When I’m going in
I wanna boom in your box
I hit it slow and then
Only talk of Blue tooth is when
You licking on my lollipop
And I’m eating every berry
So the sweeties will never stop
Know the top of the better pop
When I’m feeling nostalgia
For a simplеr time
Did nothing but cower
I couldn’t evеn dream
Of taking her out
A mumbling hi there
Only thing coming outta
My dry lips
Nerves done cottoned the mouth up
Must have been a while
Fore you thought I was bout it
But
Memories so vivid
And timely
Tracksuits and Nikes
That just remind me
Of
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh there the girl goes
Goes
Dipping into the back of my mind
Where she froze
Froze
Lose her in the blink of an eye
If she ghosts
Ghosts
But for a second girl please remind me
I know
I chose
To leave but thinking I’d find you
I’d hope
Hope
One day I’d make you mine
So close
Close
How could I ever leave behind
My home
Home
Now it seem the second chance is mine
Let’s roll
Roll, roll
[Chorus]
Why do I like her?
Just a reminder
Of a South London girl
Simpler time a
Flashback to childhood
Slang and the style
One difference
She Canadian this time
Why do I like her?
Just a reminder
Of a South London girl
Simpler time a
Flashback to childhood
Slang and the style
One difference
She American this time
Oh this time yeah
This time
[Verse 2]
See baby I’m built for the voyage
Homecoming
Road running no mortgage
Pack light
Live light no storage
Be the light
And live for the moment
But how come you accompany
My company
Like the postcard signed Mister Monk & me
Everywhere I go
You run to me
From the stu
To the stage
To the money tree
My
Young crush has turned eternal
Be your intern
In turn I’ll learn you
The contract terms
Look terminal
And I ever lose touch
Remind me how to work you
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh there the girl goes
Goes
Dipping into the back of my mind
Where she froze
Froze
Lose her in the blink of an eye
If she ghosts
Ghosts
But for a second girl please remind me
I know
I chose
To leave but thinking I’d find you
I’d hope
Hope
One day I’d make you mine
So close
Close
How could I ever leave behind
My home
Home
Now it seem the second chance is mine
Let’s roll
Roll, roll
[Chorus]
Why do I like her?
Just a reminder
Of a South London girl
Simpler time a
Flashback to childhood
Slang and the style
One difference
She Canadian this time
Why do I like her?
Just a reminder
Of a South London girl
Simpler time a
Flashback to childhood
Slang and the style
One difference
She American this time
[Outro]
Yeah
This time
She Canadian this time
American this time
Yeah
