Remember The Name

[Intro: E.L]
Okay, this was around 2008
Right after I finished college, you know
I was frustrated because I couldn't get a job
And um, I found myself like, moving from one place to another, you know
Just, I leave home in the morning because my folks didn't want to see me just sitting at home
So you know, I just roam around
And I found myself at this hotel
And uh, crept in a corner, found some corner to sit in
And I was just watching this guy, this white guy
He was you know, an older guy
He was about maybe in his fifties or something and
You could tell that this guy was well-to-do you know
He was, he was well dressed
You could see he was reading his magazines
Just sipping on, whatever
He was you know, he was just having a good time
And I could tell this guy was successful
So, I mustered up a little courage and in my frustration as well walked up to him
And he saw me approaching and you know, he was a little apprehensive
And I was like "Excuse me, can I ask you a question?"
And he looked up at me and said "No, I'm sorry. I don't have an..."
I was like "Yo, this'll just take two minutes. Two minutes of your time. I just need to know something."
Then he says "Okay, what?"
And I asked him "How'd you get successful?, how'd you get rich?."
And this man looked at me and said
"Look, if you wanna be rich, just spend time with rich people"
You know?

[Verse 1: E.L]
Lomi, listen
How ain't things straight when you got a crooked mind
Every rhyme that I kick's a blind
I'm sick of tryna make niggas realize I'm a -
Shit, let's get it back
It's jump-rope how I'm skipping lines, let's get it back
My time on earth will be documented
My songs famed and my bars remembered
Though I do not get the credit I deserve I am not offended
My legacy will not be open-ended
Legendary status is the ambition, yeah
You see my actions but my plans different, yeah
A man's wisdom through his transitions make him clandestine when he plans business, man listen, yeah
I spend time only with rich niggas, yeah
'Cause I know success is infectious, yeah
They said money can't buy you happiness
I told 'em you were never truly poor
Give all your riches away chale
Prove me wrong

[Hook: Jean Feier]
I've been down so many times
I've seen hell in the eyes of 'man beings
You cannot blow my mind
Story, story, don't you watch yeah
There's no wonder
They gon' remember the name
There's no wonder
They gon' remember the name

[Verse 2: Fu]
Uh, these sweet 16's, they come pieced with the sweetest schemes
The suite life seems like a reach but the dream still screens
Yah, believe that
Been cut a thousand times without bleeding
I don't need a reason to do it for myself
The rest of y'all can wait
See first, I gotta make sure I can eat
And then you get a plate
They say the name mean something so you gotta pick it right
Okay, I pick two simple letters, anybody, any time of day
This is not a phase dummy
Or a game to be played
Pick your cousins if you're looking for your mates
I'm estranged, this is eight hunnid
This is me in your face
Made you look
Nasty bitch, you could tell from the fade
What you gain from it?
What you gain from a name if its not what they call at the end of the day
What's your name honey?
Will they know who you are?
Will they shout that you're second to none?

[Hook: Jean Feier & Recognize Ali]
I've been down so many times
I've seen hell in the eyes of 'man beings
You cannot blow my mind
Story, story, don't you watch yeah
There's no wonder
They gon' remember the name
Yeah waddup? There's no wonder
Recognize They gon' remember the name

[Verse 3: Recognize Ali]
Yo, I'm still the illest motherfucker to do it
Top 10, dead or alive, the rhyming is fluent
Check the way that I spew it, I been flowing like fluid
Then I build with the truest, I'm underground like sewers
You knew this
Like all the tracks I kill beats, audio Herod
My light is too bright, lose your sight when you stare on
Came through in the bare of night nigga
But you dead wrong for thinking you can spawn with the god
Now your head gone
Catching bodies like [?] then my shit colossal
I'm the lyrical dragon, spit fire on records like Jah-rah
Silence all on the bench till I appear like Benny Buckle
While you strip with some Africans, you just straight outta Congo
A thousand rhymes, what you find in every bar
Man fuck sitting on the throne, bow before the god
The only true god MC in the GH, ha!
Hip-hop is me, son, I'm bigger than GH rap

[Hook: Jean Feier]
I've been down so many times
I've seen hell in the eyes of 'man beings
You cannot blow my mind
Story, story, don't you watch yeah
There's no wonder
They gon' remember the name
There's no wonder
They gon' remember the name
I've been down so many times
I've seen hell in the eyes of 'man beings
You cannot blow my mind
Story, story, don't you watch yeah
There's no wonder
They gon' remember the name
There's no wonder
They gon' remember the name
