|
Hahahahah, c'mon, uhh |
|
Reminisce, reminisce with me |
|
(Grimey) |
|
Come go with me |
|
(So much shit in this ghetto) |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
(Grimeys, uhh, grimeys) |
|
In the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me |
|
(Starsky, corruption, grimey) |
|
Come go with me |
|
(Nigga grew up fucked up and some) |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
Yeahehyeah |
|
I tak you back to reminisce on when the times was better |
|
It was way before the cheddar |
|
And niggas flossin big baguet-tas in their neck-lace |
|
Ghetto wasn't so mellow at this time |
|
Rewind and you'll find the year was '85.... |
|
We was dead broke, me and my brother and my mother |
|
Copped the one-room flat, no cover just a floor mat |
|
The dresscode then was tuff skins and croker sacks |
|
Hit the scene at 15 and then, copped me a sack |
|
No joke, it seemed like then it was a crime to be broke |
|
Watchin my people scuffle in the admist of gun smoke |
|
Peer pressure got me fuckin bitches at lunch |
|
Then we're shakin them stunts to get high, blaze a blunt |
|
Just to stay calm, I kept a pistol in my palm |
|
Just to breeze thru these concrete streets of Vietnam |
|
Don't be alarmed, this fuckin world was built around a twist bit |
|
Mama never told me there'll be days like this |
|
Shall we reminisce...... |
|
[Chorus: Le-Le, (Caffeine)] |
|
Reminisce, reminisce with me |
|
Come go with me |
|
(Can you think back with me huh?) |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
(Can you think back to when you was in junior high?) |
|
In the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me |
|
(Uhh, high school, brought up in this shit) |
|
Come go with me |
|
(Them was the days baby) |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
(Love em) |
|
Yeahehyeah |
|
And fuck the suburbs and the meadows, baby we can party in the ghetto |
|
Where niggas keep their weapons concealed, it's all real |
|
What happened to Joe? He got smoked two weeks ago |
|
Wouldnt've died if he kept his eyes in his own vehicle |
|
You know how the game goes when you caught up in the struggle |
|
And got two jobs to juggle, wish my father was here |
|
To reminisce it with me, a fuckin shame |
|
I guess I gotta charge it to the game, but shit ain't the same |
|
As it use to be cos it use to be |
|
You could smile to get wild in your own fuckin community |
|
Block parties, street fights, kids flyin kites |
|
Big wheels flyin down hills on dirt bikes |
|
Fool what happened to the love? It used to be so lavish |
|
But now niggas parish over bitches, weed and cabbage |
|
Flashy habits, imported fabrics and plush tones |
|
We need to leave that bullshit alone |
|
Now can you think back with me, c'mon? |
|
[Chorus: Le-Le, (Caffeine)] |
|
Reminisce, reminisce with me |
|
(Now can you think back?) |
|
Come go with me |
|
(So much shit in this ghetto) |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
(Think back to when you used to play, play freeze tag) |
|
In the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me |
|
(Play tackle football in the middle of the street with all ya partners) |
|
Come go with me |
|
(Ha) |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
(And then we, then we hit a lil', lil' girl scout down the street, ya |
|
Wanna) |
|
Yeahehyeah (Play hide and go get in this shit?) |
|
Reminisce, reminisce with me (Ha ha ha, uhh) |
|
Come go with me |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
(Sit on the porch all day) |
|
In the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me |
|
(Niggas steal for the weekend, y'knowhutImean? Sunshinin) |
|
Come go with me |
|
(Run lights) |
|
So you can see the way that things they used to be |
|
(We're here for the street lights, you know you, you know you gotta |
|
Be here for the streetlights) |
|
Yeahehyeah |
