burrian - when they reminisce over you lyrics

[intro]
(they’ll reminisce, they’ll reminisce)
(they’ll reminisce, they’ll reminisce)
(they’ll reminisce, they’ll reminisce)
i’ll reminisce, i’ll reminisce, uh!
(they’ll reminisce, they’ll reminisce)
yeah (they’ll reminisce, they’ll reminisce)
(they’ll reminisce, they’ll reminisce)
(they’ll rеminisce, they’ll reminiscе)
(i’ll reminisce)

[verse 1]
i’ll reminisce over a drink, or shall i say think back
22 years ago, to keep it on track
the death of a man on the 11 of september
a toast, but he never did come sober
countin’ all the calls, and the dough, now i suppose
he hoped his little black boy grows, d+mn
just 3 years old younger then my mama, but i rarely saw her ’cause the girl loved drama
a single hour, that’s all he stood
by the time he was 21, had another one
this one is a girl, let’s call her pam
different father as the first, but she never gave a d+mn
irresponsible, plain, never thinkin’
papa went to work, but my sister kept weeping
still, he won’t down you or tear out your hide
on the side while the baby maker slide
“but mama ain’t never gave a dang” but as soon dad knew, “hon, here it is!”
after 10 years with a special spouse, mama left and got kicked out the house
listen, positive over negative, for the women and masters, my dad said “we gon rise next chapter!”
listen, fool, that was when it hit two+thou, never knew we’d reminisce over you, my god (my god)
[bridge]
it’s so, just so, lovely
only if he were here right now, he’d tell me i’m dragging on

[verse 2]
when i date back, i recall a member of the family tree, my right+hand, uncle doc, you see
took me to places i couldn’t ever ever see, so i always had a father when my actual father couldn’t bother
taking care of mama, such a horrible thinker, not a bad bicker, but he’s never done pickin’
you could never say he was livin’ life through, five kids at twenty+one, believe he got a right too
here we go, while i check the scene, my dad with a portuguese lover at the age of 14
the same age, front page, no fuss
but i bet my father never knew she’d live longer then he’d
never been senile, that’s where you’re wrong
i just never got a taste, but he’s gone
he noddin’ off in his sleep to a jazz tune, but he could his mom banging her head in the next room
now he got a pillow, and hoped he don’t wake ’em
he tried that once before, heard it all in verbatim
tellin’ me to not raise my voice unless he’s taking over
i said, “pop, maybe when you’re older”
we laughed all night about a lady we saw at a party, my old man standing, sayin’ “good god almighty!”
use your time, and don’t sip at the booze, could not be reminiscing over you, for real

[bridge]
if only he didn’t go work that day, maybe we’d be laughing at one of yous outfit right now
maybe be sipping on some juice, y’know?
[verse 3]
i reminisce so you never forget this, the days are way back
when my unc could bear it and be a witness
took the first letter outta buildings from our joint, listen close as i prove my point
w to the t to the c, “how’d you and i speak when nyc was the hottest sight to see?”
but only my dad saw what took my unc years to see, i dedicate this to him for believing in me
blamed for shine, my father went to york
with grandma sam, she hold the family together
my uncle tom’s the greatest, better yet the latest
if we’re talking about a deal, pa’ done did got the latest
he strive to be live, ’cause he don’t got choice, and ran his own buisness like my aunt joyce
so tom done hit me, we saw it on the news, so we reminisce over you
