Traffik - Never Forget (Where U Came From) lyrics

[First Verse] I was sound asleep for hours, dreaming of seeing crowds Hear my radio alarm blast, want that to quiet down I had trouble getting up, never bothered to cut my hair Neglecting to text my girl, it was as if she wasn't there That was everyday life, man I was failing outta college But more importantly, I was failing to acknowledge the knowledge That loving someone's all that can really make you happy And I ain't talking props for shows, or grades you need for pa**ing Cos no bragging rights, no plans for a life secure Could compare to seeing love inside of eyes that's really pure Like when I told my brother I have faith in his dreams That I believe he can do music he can play on stage with me Like we used to do in summertimes in my grandparent's attic Laying ill vocals down over old radio static Cos our family situation growing up was rarely easy If I told you what music got us through, you'd never believe me [Chorus] So for that I won't regret, and I'll never forget Everything that I've been through that allowed me to rock a set All the people that I seen, the people that I love The people that I miss, and the people now above [Second Verse] The bus rides with my best friend across the city I'd tell him about my songs, show him lines I rhymed witty But I never got to say how I appreciated his friendship And its sad, looking back now that that's come to an ending You were one of the few that listened, had intuition and spirit So I wanted to let you know how much it mean when you hear this We used to stay out late at night trying to get girls to kiss ya And now I look back on the times that we had, and man I miss ya [Chorus] So for that I won't regret, and I'll never forget Everything that I've been through that allowed me to rock a set All the people that I seen, the people that I love The people that I miss, and the people now above [Third Verse] And I remember coming home after chilling late with my friends And smell a home cooked meal from the kitchen again In the cold winter months bundled up with three sweaters With the warmth my mama showed me I forgot about the weather The leather jacket my dad handed down to me too It was old and it was worn, but it reminds me of you Cos even though you weren't always there I steady miss you Still have that old photo, and we're smiling in the picture So even though we had our struggles yo I forgive ya [Outro] But nothing that I say would be able to express How much I love you all so I know when I'm depressed Stressed about how I ain't good enough or I ain't a famous rapper I can look back on these memories together that we captured You are the place that I came from, the roots that let me grow The place inside my heart that only few will ever know The realest thing that I've lived for, the only thing that I wish Is to understand and not forget what love really is One love
