Memories

Funny how in just one moment,
things can turn upside down.
Wish I could send back time to when you were still around.
All I got left is memories
of your face smiling at me.
You should see that we should all just handle the scythe around.

You should see that we should all just handle the scythe around.
All I got left is memories
of your face smiling at me.
You should say that we should all just handle the scythe around.

If, if, if
I had to listen to my reoccuring thoughts
as if, as if,
they were whisperin' me something.
Somehow I'm something,
when once I was nothing,
except a cell in my mom's stomach.
I can't remember them,
but I can remember when
I played in my old home
wit, wit my sis-sister, Em.
I can remember seeing many loved ones
move on,
but I groove on
and I got my chew on,
cuz I was grindin',
my teeth tried to stay smiling.
I never thought a tattoo could show who I am.
Only my mind man,
and my words can rep who I am.
In my mind,
memories cram.

I remember you, do you remember me?
Funny how once you said to me,
"We should just see each other at the gates and go separate ways."

We should all just let faith increase,
cuz all of my memories of you just strengthen me.
If you talking to God I hope you mention me.
I miss you and wish you could've seen this immaculate thing
that I made for you
before you left in peace.
Ecstatic when I placed that last puzzle piece.
Mom said give it to her tomorrow,
so I hit the sheets.
That night you died.
Didn't get to see your proud face hugging me.
Think I have a small resentment for Moms, but really I'm at peace.
That therapy and wires must've hurt and I feel your vibe, so it's aight with me.
Every night and day my cranium
has something new to say to 'em.
New ones I'm chasing 'em.
Old ones I'm writing and replaying 'em.
I'm swimming in a lake of 'em.
I gotta display 'em, son.

But one thing...
I always see your face in 'em.
