[Chorus] Consider my love The days when we were Together so young Our love was enough Remember? [Verse one] 1974 The Lord put me on this planet with a plan to be as hard as granite Calm spirit, no panic at the childbirth Verse read Mother shaped my head with a kiss “Damn! he got a strong grip…” as I s**led My Father's knees buckled from the joy Luck would have it that this bouncing baby boy would Gravitate towards being Poetic, Emceein' in the future But for now on the nipple like a hookah Fast forward, play games and duke a bit The years progress Messed with cats that dib and dabbled in chess Less strategical but meaningful Growing was completed so fast 3rd grader doing 5th grade math Knew the library staff and half the books I read shed light Damn! Those Arabian Knights Was influenced by love that be of my birthright [Chorus] Consider my love The days when we were Together so young Our love was enough Remember? [Verse two] Sundays at church, watching the preacher work the pulpit Sit next to Ma Pay attention or you'd get pent against the wall Times was serious but love conquered Above sponsors of hate So we had to relate in those days Hip Hop was ill Conforming to the whack performing was unreal And listen that's real! We'd k** for a chance to go dance & wop Pop music was hot & new Boys would pop & groove with high tops & loose shoes To hip hop that incorporated jazz & blues In high school, arts were plentiful Magnetic programs romance was synthetic Dead it in a minute so much love, but love I'm tryin to get it Through roads and streets Avenues and creeks Seek what my heart desires buying tracks that meet Complete now so… [Chorus] Consider My Love The days when we were Together so young Our love was enough Remember? [Verse three] Those family functions No interruptions Bustin “The Dozens” on kin folk Mainly your cousins It's all love In good spirit Used to hear it from the older generation Chasin' them dreams and stacking cream for all of us We used to boost a bit Young kids with the itch to have them cool fits and fly kicks, Nike Dunks California raised, so the hustle was engrained from day one Fake one's that front Give it up Childhood was good From Stockton to Inglewood Boggs Tract in fact is where the foundation lies at Now Mac trucks back up to speed the track up I plead, don't crack up the dirt before we act up From the foot to the brain impact cuts the soul deep A whole heap but peep we still gain Things have changed but memories stay the same This brave heart parts with… [Chorus] Consider My Love The days when we were Together so young Our love was enough Remember?
