They Reminisce Over You (Bonus 1)

[Verse 1] Now I reminisce for a spell, or shall I say think back 17 years ago, a baby born ready to attack The kid grew up fast, only because he had to Cause momma wasn’t there, and he didn’t felt a dad too But still he grew, his older sis running cause she felt dissed Parents ready for war and our lil man was in the midst But he kept his eyes closed, the accusations were dismissed Of the bottle, he knew he had to remodel cause he just got pissed Of how it happened, but daddy tried to take the damage So that’s positive, respect him for his actions But then the anchor left, so the boat wasn’t stuck and could go faster The waves kept him on pace, keeping himself on the right road was the answer So he did that, our lil boy grew and grew And got through, saw problems but this fool knew That one day he’d be free, of the rotten apple on the family tree Momma no longer in sight, she was the tunnel without any light And he looks back driven, as he thinks of what he’s been through, he’s risen Sunshine scare clouds, when they reminisce over you, listen (I reminisce, I reminisce) x3 I reminisce, I reminisce Uh! (I reminisce, I reminisce) Yeah (I reminisce, I reminisce) (I reminisce, I reminisce) (I reminisce, I reminisce) [Verse 2] And now I reminisce on the old me, I was sipping coldly But alcohol doesn’t unfold me, so I took back control you see I was just a kid, involved in all these problems left unsolved Even if I was left with my own soul, I was too young to know That there’s power you can only hold, after experiencing what I just told You need to grow up, learn from past memories As I look back at who I neglected, those were the ones blessing me Couldn’t see it, it’s like I was clouded for centuries Did some wrong stuff, didn’t matter back then to me But now I’ve changed, the problems solved, so I’m no longer estranged For being humane, I became a menace, acted insane Insecurity fueled by the shame, but hell now it’s all okay Nobody to carry the blame but me, but I’m no longer the same The looks on the outside are different, the thoughts no longer ignorant Some soul searching got my coal burning Fueling me with the fruits of my goal that I’m earning Cause I’ve paid my dues, anger was there But I’ve killed it with the grenade I threw I’ve traded my blues and created something new Now as I look back on who I was, I’m loving my new point of view But I embrace memories, when I reminisce over you (I reminisce, I reminisce) x3 I reminisce, I reminisce Uh! (I reminisce, I reminisce) Yeah (I reminisce, I reminisce) (I reminisce, I reminisce) (I reminisce, I reminisce) [Verse 3] When I reminisce about earlier times I always think of the subject of earlier rhymes A little lady, been friends for like a year or five Always took the wheel when I felt I couldn’t drive But she left the car now when we’re live But that’s her, closed her walls Opposed my calls, and eventually composed my fall But that’s not what I’m reminiscing I’m thinking about older times, before this girl and I were kissing A little blonde kid smiling and feeling good Even when things at home aren’t the way they should But there’s so much things that she would Do in the future, so much plans A cake book, a Barbie with her own glance But her parents fucked up, took away her chance She got sick too, can’t even go to the dance Lost a lot of people she trusted She felt disgusted, but she just adjusted To the sick world around, and I reminisce on what I found Digging in my memory, the little lady’s smile As I reminisce over you for a while (I reminisce, I reminisce) x3 I reminisce, I reminisce Uh! (I reminisce, I reminisce) Yeah (I reminisce, I reminisce) (I reminisce, I reminisce) (I reminisce, I reminisce)
