xavier goodman - do you remember me lyrics
[intro]
man, what you laughing at, yo?
after all i remember you, oh i say
do you remember me? ’cause after all i remember you
oh i say
[verse 1]
i remember being younger running up and down them hallways
but when summer hit, we was on them bikes always
and i was told always that family got yo’ back
and don’t ever leave your family for a stranger, that’s dangerous
home is where the heart is, grew up in ’em apartments
and apart from all the trauma and the roaches in the ceiling
my experience was marvelous, it showed the piece of me i needed to complete my heart full circle
[chorus]
do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say, do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say, do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say, do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say
[verse 2]
you gotta be sober just to feel the highs in life
’cause life is an emotional rollercoaster
big bulldozer rolling over anything that wants to stay the same
so you better get better and better, better be elevating
i mean like, double up your hoodies and prepare for the weather
’cause it get cold where i’m from, it’ll snow on a sunny day
it’ll rain on your whole parade, and test yo’ patience, test yo’ mind sp+ce
life will run up in your house with a problem and it sits you on a counter
while you counting bills and tell you straight to yo’ face
like this is my sp+ce and it’s my way or the highway
and you better best believe i’m not driving
so you can make a change if you wanna change
or you can stay the same, ’cause i’m giving you the choice to change
it’s hard to maintain an image when you not in the frame
and it’s hard to keep up your name with the words that you saying when you were younger
(“this sucks”
“what sucks?”
“i wish i had a car”
“a car? if i had a car i would’ve been driving like, but we’re only seven and seven is like just seven years old, you know?”
“i don’t know, i just, i’m thinking like”
“what you thinking about?”
“wouldn’t it be great to have everything you wanted?”
“it would”
“i promise, i promise when i get older, i’m going to have a nice car, i’m going to have a nice house, i’ma have a nice fam, i’ma have a, the world’s going to know my name, i wanna be somebody”
“me too, i wanna be a astronaut, a lawyer, and a shin0bi”)
[chorus]
so, do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say, do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say
[verse 3]
i could never feel the feelings of the story, let’s get to the end of the story
’cause i’ll be d+mned if i never write the book
i’ll be d+mned if i brought some flowers to my baby shower
talking early release, you’ll never catch me celebrating early
’cause the early bird catch the worm, but the worm that’s never early
never ever gets eaten, he’s in the garden of eden
and he’s eating the apples that eve left, it was buried in a six+digit passcode, notepad
typing up a vision that he had in his dream, that he will make it out his situation, some think that he know that
star shine bright, he finna show that
stone cold sober, never rolled that
[?]
know that i am tired of being tired all the time
i’m tired of people treating me like they story is mine
because this story is mine and i will shine like a dime [?]
in the sky, i’m a diamond, pressure under pressure i’m the finest
i’m divining, so you can keep on check+check+check watch, i am timeless
i was mining, i’m the melanated finest, rhymer
with a rhyme book, who want a signing?
i was told to wait my designed time just to cross that fine line
i think i caught that fine line, i’m the line leader
fee+fi+fo on all my foes, i’m the giant beater
peter piper picked a couple problems, ain’t no problems that i’m facing that this statement is dissolving
i’ma make it from the bottom of the bottom to the tip of the top
hard work and dedication for the spot i got my mind
[chorus]
so, do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say, do you remember me?
’cause after all, i remember you
oh i say, do you remember me?
’cause after all i remember you
[outro]
“okay xavier, so when we get big and strong and adulty, and start doing adult stuff, what adults do, you better keep up with your promise, it doesn’t matter how long it takes, it doesn’t matter how many years it takes, when we turn into adults, you better be somebody, ’cause we’re counting on you, we’re counting on you”
“i’m putting my bets on you man, i+i put my zebra cakes for you man, i got fifty cents on me”
“i kinda want to be a shin0bi though”
“shin0bi? you can’t be a shiniboi”
“i might make all you guys look lame, ’cause i’m a shin0bi”
“not”
“you can count on me, i’m going to be somebody, just watch, watch me”
