Remember - Chaz French

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
