9th Wonder - Memories lyrics

[Sample] Girl I'm gone...out of your life Baby, I'm leaving this time [Verse One: J Gunn] I never forget my real life Even if I make it in this biz I'll remember to be thankful for everything I get Every single screaming kid who caught one of my punchlines All the kids who told me I was the best they heard, unsigned One time, I remember rockin' a show And watchin' jaws drop when I said I was nine years old As time moves slow I remember good times first Like Easter mornings in a suit lookin' good 'round church For every problem that I have, I've got a wonderful life I'll never forget the day I met the love of my life Clutchin' these mics, reflect on life's previous cause I catch tears in my eyes from the memories lost [Verse Two: K-Slack] I'll never understand why my mother turned her back on me Or my dad's homicide, man that sh** haunts me I feel crazy, the bullet keeps on piercing my brain So I try to cope with life and adapt to change But it's hard, but ain't nobody holdin' me back So I put my faith in God so my brain can relax [Hook: J Gunn] I will never forget all the things I've seen As long as I'm alive, I'll be sure to recall What it took for me to rise, so I do not fall I will never forget what I put in this dream Where I'm from, where I'm goin' Hot or as cold as the winter weather A loser or a winner I will always remember [Verse Two: k**er K] Ayo J, remember kindergarten? Remember writin' our first rhyme? Remember gettin' me started? Remember southern crew? Remember HB? I remember waitin' patiently for our date to see (A record deal?) Basically How could I forget my boys who held it down? Or got me to my feet whenever I fell down And to my girls y'all my heart Y'all been with me from the start If ever we start, your memory will remain within my thoughts And if our paths cross, it's hats off I remember gettin' in fights and scuffing my shoes Remember smokin' trees cause I had nothin' to do And I won't forget my boys cause I don't have a choice I love my crew [J Gunn] Motherf** those who Had too much to say Runnin' around the Bull City like I don't f** with J You said I won't make it Boy was you wrong Remember when I told you that battle boy could do songs I'd never forget the way y'all used to look at me wrong The way you trashed my tapes and said I couldn't get on Now your tune switched Tellin' me to remember you When I drop my first hit I'll be sure to forget [Hook] [Verse Three: K-Slack] So many memories from Stephanie, I'll never forget Plus my [?] clique was always down for some sh** Y'all know the deal, everybody in the CBT NYC, Alaska, that's where I got family Don't look surprised, I still rep the Bull City Like my cousin Mike Nice and my other cousin Scotty It's just a hobby how my pen flows, smooth Just like this girl I bumped into, in G-Borough So many things I can't forget J Gunn and k**er K, yo, I'm glad we made it We used to argue and fight Write raps every night But I wouldn't change it for nothin' cause that's my life [k**er K] I wish I could forget, my horrible wreck My brush with d**h when I wrecked the Corvette I wish I could forget when my father died, like it didn't happen But I would never have been rappin' Wish I could forget Bin Laden and 9/11 But these memories will stay with me until I lie in Heaven [Hook]
