I Remember

Meadowbrook Baby 4Lafia

I remember times when I ain't have nothing

Go sit inside the trap tryna come up with something

Zay got killed Fat caught some time

Shit I guess I was lucky

Posted in the hood strapped up for war

Sticks for whoever want it

Quan locked in them shackles down the road

He facing hella years

Told his momma he a soldier

We gon' shake him on appeal

It started off with shooting dice

Start gambling with our life for real

Living fast at a young age

I guess that came with shedding tears

See me now I'm finna make it

Justice finna have my baby

Momma she ain't raise me

She was in the streets

So you know the streets what raised me

They say time will tell

But niggas' time hit the table

I been said "Fuck a streetlight

This the street life "

Late night pistol slanging

You in the streets so fuck a job

What you gon' do when you get that notice

That your shit go off tomorrow?

Is you gon' stand up like a man

Or you gon' sit down like a boy?

I'ma do what I was taught

Nigga that's go against the odds

Watch—I keep on going hard

'Cause I remember all the times

I used to sit inside the dark

I can't forget the time

Nigga where this here started

Know I remember all the times

We used to post up at Smart

Now I'm eighteen up in New York

Sliding in a foreign car

I remember times when I ain't have nothing

Go sit inside the trap tryna come up with something

Zay got killed Fat caught some time

Shit I guess I was lucky

Posted in the hood strapped up for war

Sticks for whoever want it

You in the streets so fuck a job

What you gon' do when you get that notice

That your shit go off tomorrow?

Is you gon' stand up like a man
