Remember Y
Yeah
Gotta speak my heart mane
If there was every something that you need to remember me by
Just remember this when I’m gone homie
[Verse 1: Sevin]
I ain’t got much
Stuck in the clutches of the ghetto
Could hardly hear my prayers over the bustin’ of the metal
I feel I need to elevate
I just don’t wanna settle
So I hop up in the Cutlass put my pressure on the pedal
I know my sins is gon catch up to me before long
The hood life’s a puzzle it’s a struggle just to hold on
A grieving child
I ain’t seen my smile in so long
Surviving by any means and anything can go wrong
Soothe my soul
Put some Henny in my cup
In cruise control with a semi in my gut
Am I my own enemy or what?
Shatter every dream worth pursuing
Ruin anything I touch
It’s like calamity’s embedded in my DNA
If my relative was still living wonder what he would say
It ain’t always black and white mane I see the grey
It’s like crime is halfway right when you need to pay
No level of education so the people stray
And heaven’s the destination but we need a way
We die tomorrow just to live for today
And we leave behind the sorrow for our kids to display
So many reasons to stop believing
Them blessings I’m not receiving
Or maybe I’m to blame because I’m not achieving
They tell me to quit smoking cigarettes
Believe me they kill
No more than the stress that they alleviate will
[Hook: Sevin]
Stuck on the turf so I send my prayers to the sky
The word said if I believe in Him I’ll never die
I’ll be gone before long but don’t ever cry
All I ask is don’t remember me remember why
Stuck on the turf so I send my prayers to the sky
The word said if I believe in Him I’ll never die
I’ll be gone before long but don’t ever cry
All I ask is don’t remember me remember why
[Verse 2: Sevin]
Yeah yeah
Adjoined to the torment I was born with
Stung by the hornet fell dormant into hell when it’s warmest
Join us
The depths of this pain is enormous
Blood stained is the corners
When we slain they don’t mourn us
We shadows in the night that the murderers left here
Screaming in futility they turning a deaf ear
Cuz death’s here
Certainly the serpent is yet near
We shed red tears to the dirt for regretfully dead peers
I’m just trying to be focused
On more than scrilla and whores
Cuz I’ve had more than a dosage
I fled the land like Moses
I couldn’t wait mane
I had to hit the gate before it closes
Know this
You can have any portion of my heart and my soul in devotion
I’m open to try to soak in the ocean of the provoking notion
You’re the hope for the hopeless and broken
[Hook: Sevin]
Stuck on the turf so I send my prayers to the sky
The word said if I believe in Him I’ll never die
I’ll be gone before long but don’t ever cry
All I ask is don’t remember me remember why
Stuck on the turf so I send my prayers to the sky
The word said if I believe in Him I’ll never die
I’ll be gone before long but don’t ever cry
All I ask is don’t remember me remember why
[Verse 3: Sevin]
Yeah
It’s so obvious the thorn in the flesh be poking out of us
Probably justifiable to let death swallow us
Meditating and I’ve been doing a lot of thinking
I’ve gotta have a drinking problem
Cuz I ain’t got a problem drinking
God I’m sinking to the flesh
I must confess that I’m a weakling
Still jobless I’ve progressed not an inkling
I get the credit that I’m headed for greatness
But for me all I can see is death and federal cages
Yeah
I feel like Joseph with the coat of many colors
Thrown in the abyss by wicked motives of his brothers
Sold into slavery
Gospel and the street game paying me
They don’t even pray for me they playing me
I’d like to pop and squeeze on em please let me at em
The beast within me be thinking things they can’t fathom
That’s why they need us to stay connected like Pac Bell
‘Fore I got back to crack sales
Pistol clappin’ and packed jails
Sack sale
I’m from the heart of the furnace
Oak Park murder men’s filled with heartless murders
And God if you’re concerned let us know it
And show it
Cuz I’m just a ghetto poet
I ain’t perfect I could blow it
[Hook: Sevin]
Stuck on the turf so I send my prayers to the sky
The word said if I believe in Him I’ll never die
I’ll be gone before long but don’t ever cry
All I ask is don’t remember me remember why
Stuck on the turf so I send my prayers to the sky
The word said if I believe in Him I’ll never die
I’ll be gone before long but don’t ever cry
All I ask is don’t remember me remember why
