I Remember

Pipe that sh*t up TnT LC
It was trials and tribulations
On the road to chasing that paper
Seen so many faces been so many places caught some cases
Crazy thing is out of all life done taught me
Before you get one win you gotta take a thousand losses
I remember n***a yeah
Straight up you know me
How would I ever forget
How could I ever forget yeah yeah
I remember oh I remember
How could I ever forget
How would I ever forget
I remember everything the shine and the struggle
I remember all the pain all the grind all the hustle
I remember elementary when pops would come and get me
And take me to the neighborhood with Veneria and Whitney
Then pops had went to prison I remember every letter
I remember biches playing with my heart
'Cause I would let 'em
I remember what's his name told me
Bro let's stick together
But we couldn't stick together
'Cause n***as change just like the weather
I still remember the first night when I met Mr Raymond
I was on the block with Glocks
When Uncle Dereck came to save me
Remember back in middle school when I met Derek Bailey
And he taught me how to sack that w**d
Stack that cheese and save it
But I still f**ked it up I remember tryna shake back
Me and Sir Kendrick in the kitchen cookin' fake crack
I remember my first show I remember who booked me
I remember all you opps from middle school
Them n***as was p***y
I remember my first stolen car
I was with Lil Chaz
I had just jumped off the porch
But lil' bruh was moving fast
I remember when I first met Kareem we was coolin'
A year later we was breakin' in them houses
Shootin' movies
If we catch a n***a late night no pipe it's a wrap
We made lil' what's his name jump
Off his bike and that's a fact
Remember when I first caught a buzz with my raps
Money came and n***as changed and stabbed me in my back
Remember when I first confessed my love and I cried
Asked you 'bout that other f**k n***a and you lied
No longer could I stand to see the truth in your eyes
So I went somewhere else to find love and you know why
Remember sitting in my cell blaming the streets
Mama came to see me said the blame was on me
Remember Lenny died the city cried for a week
I remember when you n***as testified on Lil C
It was trials and tribulations
On the road to chasing that paper
Seen so many faces been so many places
Caught some cases
Crazy thing is out of all life done taught me
Before you get one win
You gotta take a thousand losses
I remember n***a yeah
I remember n***a
I remember n***a
How would I ever forget
How could I ever forget
I remember oh I remember
How could I ever forget
How would I ever forget
