Lil Rob: I Remember

I want u to sit back
Close your eyes
And think of all those wonderful times
That we used to have, yeah
Now I know things aren't the way
They used to be right now
But they are gonna get better, some day
And I know that

Ever since I was about twelve, that's when they documented me
A gang member let me tell you my, autobiography
I can't let it, turn me frenetic, it must of been genetic
To get in trouble with the law, take on the realest
Write on the walls, that's what I used to do
Smokin' a joint or two, Little Rob getting a little bit blaze
Walkin' through my concrete maze,remain's, remember the days
Remember goin' to the store, lookin' at a track, smokin' a sack
But the vato was older too, get him stoned, then I jack it back
I remember the gueros, they used to look at us all, funny and strange
Because my pants was bigger than his, now their all wearing the same
I used to get jealous; Wondering why they never had the same rights?
Is it because I'm burnin' and i throw down, eating menudo, frijoles, and rice
Someone explain to me, all of this insanity, I'm not understanding you
Never understandin' me, when the minority get the priority straight
We become the majority inflate, the incredible rate, controling our fate
Controling our state's, and I can't wait, remember you told me
I'll never amount to anything That I'll probably on the street, sellin' mota
with methaphetamines.So what, it made me an extra buck when I would shoot at them
And let them do the same to holmes if you was stuck to

Chorus:
And I remember when time was easy
That's what everybody says but not me
Wicked ass times on S.D. streets
But I still love them
And had to have them
And I remember
Remembering the things we used to do
Places we used to go, yeah

And I remember kicking under the street lamp, smoking a J
Hearing my homie say homie, pass that joint this way'
And this was everyday and everynight was the same
We didn't call each other by the first or last but by the nicknames
Dreamer, P-wee, also Negro, to name a few, that passed away
Rest In Peace, thee others gone away, with the blues,
Remember the things we used to do? Can nobody take it away from us
We used to live life dangerous, and do away like angel dust
Better known as pezetas, so leva stay away from metiches
And chepas talking mentiras, cuase the can't beat us
Mira, Little Rob on his Lowrider, bicicleta, looking for mu'ecas
Beautiful, like Aztecas, but when it comes to love
before agony for the ecstasy, what comes around, goes around
So baby don't mess with me, don't be testing me
Cause Little Rob be, one of a kind, original, individual
Unforgettable, memorable, indelible, incredible, infallible

Chorus:
And I remember when time was easy
That's what everybody says but not me
Wicked ass times on S.D. streets
But I still love them
And had to have them
And I remember
I remember the things we used to do
Places we used to go, yeah

Give all of my love mi madre, padre, brother and sister, and all of my sangre
Enemys chale, me vale verga, estas afuera, mirando pa'dentro
You wanna come in but you can't, because were not allowed no mensos
Threw you away like a pencil, give you away like a utensil
Just when you think you had a grip on life, that's when you let go
ready set go, it's a race to the finish, and only the best always win
And I'm prepared to take you to take it, so let's finish business
What is this, had they becomin' witnesses? I don't know nothin'
I didn't hear nothin', I don't see nothin', something i learned as a kid
As long with respect, those who respect you, forget about the ones
that'll forget about you, my bikes a collection, is a collection, never a big
section of mi vida; memories, I need'ya, like a junky that needs his chiva
I wish that I could go back, and do it all over again
but I know that, that ain't happenin', and so I sit rememberin'

Chorus:
And I remember when time was easy
That's what everybody says but not me
Wicked ass times on S.D. streets
But I still love them
And had to have them

And I remember
I remember, everything
Everything we used to do
And I remember
Ooooo, Me and my homies
Underneath the street light
Gettin' high
And I remember
Ooooo, When we used ta play
Shoot'em up bang, bang, bang
Bang, bang, bang
