I Remember
Luke Clay, Rodarius M. Green, Thomas Horton
(Pipe that shit 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, nigga, 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 bitches 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 niggas 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 weed, stack that cheese and save it
But I still fucked it up, I remember tryna shake back
Me and Sir Kendrick in the kitchen cooking fake crack
I remember my first show, I remember who booked me
I remember all you opps from middle school, them niggas was pussy
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 breaking in them houses, shooting movies
If we catch a nigga 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 niggas changed and stabbed me in my back
Remember when I first confessed my love and I cried
Asked you about that other fuck nigga in your life
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 niggas testified on Lil C, I remember, I remember, nigga
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, nigga, yeah
How would I ever forget?
How could I ever forget?
I remember, oh, I remember
How could I ever forget?

It was trials and tribulations on the road to chasing that paper
Ci sono state difficoltà sulla strada verso i soldi
Seen so many faces, been so many places, caught some cases
Ho visto così tante facce, sono stato in così tanti posti, ho avuto così tante condanne
Crazy thing is, out of all life done taught me
La cosa strana è che la vita mi ha insegnato che
Before you get one win, you gotta take a thousand losses
Prima di vincere una volta, devi subire mille sconfitte
I remember, nigga, yeah
Mi ricordo, nigga, sì
Straight up, you know me
Seriamente, mi conosci
How would I ever forget?

Poi papà è andato in prigione, mi ricordo ogni lettera
I remember bitches playing with my heart 'cause I would let 'em
Mi ricordo che le cagne giocavano con il mio cuore perché le lasciavo fare
I remember what's his name told me, "Bro let's stick together"
Mi ricordo ciò che "come si chiama" mi ha detto, "Fratello, aiutiamoci a vicenda"
But we couldn't stick together, 'cause niggas change just like the weather
Ma non ci siamo potuti aiutare a vicenda perché la gente cambia proprio come il tempo
I still remember the first night when I met Mr. Raymond
Mi ricordo ancora la prima volta che ho incontrato il Signor Raymond
I was on the block with Glocks when Uncle Dereck came to save me
Ero nel quartiere con le GlocK quando zio Dereck è venuto a salvarmi
Remember back in middle school when I met Derek Bailey
Mi ricordo quando alle medie ho incontrato Dereck Bailey
And he taught me how to sack that weed, stack that cheese and save it
E mi ha insegnato ad insacchettare l'erba, fare soldi e risparmiarli
But I still fucked it up, I remember tryna shake back
Ma ho comunque sbagliato tutto, mi ricordo che ho cercato di recuperare
Me and Sir Kendrick in the kitchen cooking fake crack
Io e Sir Kendrick in cucina, a cucinare finto crack
I remember my first show, I remember who booked me

A year later we was breaking in them houses, shooting movies

Se incontriamo un nigga di notte, non parliamo, ce ne andiamo
We made lil' what's his name jump off his bike, and that's a fact
Abbiamo fatto cadere dalla bici quel "come-si-chiama", e quello è un fatto
Remember when I first caught a buzz with my raps
Mi ricordo quando ho cominciato a farmi una reputazione con tutte le mie condanne
Money came and niggas changed and stabbed me in my back
Sono arrivati i soldi, i nigga sono cambiati e mi hanno pugnalato alle spalle
Remember when I first confessed my love and I cried
Mi ricordo quando ho confessato il mio amore per la prima volta e ho pianto
Asked you about that other fuck nigga in your life
Ti ho chiesto di quel cazzone nella tua vita
No longer could I stand to see the truth in your eyes
Non potevo più sopportare di vedere la verità nei tuoi occhi
So I went somewhere else to find love and you know why
E così sono andato a cercare amore da un'altra parte, e tu sai perché
Remember sitting in my cell blaming the streets
Mi ricordo quando stavo seduto nella mia cella dando la colpa alla strada
Mama came to see me said the blame was on me
Mia madre è venuta a trovarmi e mi ha detto che la colpa era mia

Konnte es nicht länger aushalten, die Wahrheit in deinen Augen zu sehen
So I went somewhere else to find love and you know why
Also ging ich woanders hin um Liebe zu finden und du weißt wieso
Remember sitting in my cell blaming the streets
Erinnere mich daran, in meiner Zelle zu sitzen und der Straße die Schuld zu geben
Mama came to see me said the blame was on me
Mama kam mich besuchen, sagte die Schuld läge bei mir
Remember Lenny died, the city cried for a week
Erinnere mich daran, dass Lenny gestorben ist, die Stadt hat eine Woche geweint
I remember when you niggas testified on Lil C, I remember, I remember, nigga
Ich erinnere mich daran, als ihr Nigga eure Aussage gegen Lil C gemacht habt, ich erinnere mich, ich erinnere mich, Nigga
It was trials and tribulations on the road to chasing that paper
Es gab Irrungen und Wirrungen auf dem Weg zum Geld
Seen so many faces, been so many places, caught some cases
Hab' so viele Gesichter gesehen, bin an so vielen Orten gewesen, bin ein paar Mal festgenommen worden
Crazy thing is, out of all life done taught me
Das Verrückte ist, von allem, was mich das Leben gelehrt hat
Before you get one win, you gotta take a thousand losses
Bevor man einmal gewinnt, muss man tausend Niederlagen einstecken
I remember, nigga, yeah
Ich erinnere mich, Nigga, yeah
How would I ever forget?
Wie würde ich je vergessen?
How could I ever forget?
Wie könnte ich je vergessen?
I remember, oh, I remember
Ich erinnere mich, oh, ich erinnere mich
How could I ever forget?
Wie könnte ich je vergessen?
How would I ever forget?
Wie würde ich je vergessen?
