Rakim - Remember That Lyrics
Remember that?Turn the beat up, I get lost in the mind come acrossThe rhyme kick my feet up, then I find myself in timeI was on a train, destination marley marls domainI entertained thingsll never be the sameDjs are conveyed if the label ok itTeddy ted and special k was the first ones to play itOn the radio, with the crazy flowI pay dues until it pays me dough to do a showWhen Im at the helm I cover the whole realmIn control and leave your soul overwhelmedAnother influence of beats and instrumentsLyrics make it intricate and elements are tenseWhen you was playin pac man it was the jams I packedPeeps would swarm when I was perform in, black Im all thatBack before they turned hip-hop to rapIt always a place to party at, remember that?I remember the spots that used to be hotJust like the roof top, a place that only few can rockOn a wild ass block, yeah you find me there a lotUntil you hear gunshots, thats when the fun stopsHere come the cops, time to go home, get in orderCause Ill be back in manhattan if somethings happenin at the latin quarterHouse of havoc when it came to fourteen caratAnd if you had it yeah kidsd try to grab itIts cool at the red parrot we was doin it thereI was the first one to rip it at the union squareMe and dj red alert did workA crazy concert, a lot of kids got hurtI did encores at the encore, they wanted moreI kicked a freestyle til I heard the crowd roarLike the funhouse, bronx center never endin blackPlace to be was the brooklyn armory, remember that?Remember that? (3x)Open the door, let the crowds in, over twenty thousandWildin musics loud and microphones growlinTickets are sold out, parties is packed and on tourRippin basketball arenas back thenEven afterparties, posses of players and hottiesEverybody was gotti, spreadin bucks like shottiesSpendin cash, to make a good time lastThoughts that I had give me a blast of the pastMemories of unforgettable times on my mindDollar signs and melodies and incredible rhymesThe people I met, and the sets that got wreckedAll the mics I checked, most of all lifes effectsAnd peace to all the people I grew up aroundIn the streets back when beats had a rougher soundI used to be wild me and my crew sit back and we smileKeep piles of pictures filed in case I go senileCause some things are just too good to be forgotLike your neighborhood block or your favorite spotCertain records always seem to make me reminisceAnd when it hits, and then it clicks, remember thisMy life flashed before me Im there from the soundsI hear pinpoint the year, its perfectly clearI like the way it went down and alla that, in factIt mean a lot, cause you cant bring it back, remember thatRemember that? (3x)
