Verse 1:
It was about a month ago visiting my hometown
Getting off the phone with homey telling me what's going down
When I was walking out the grocer
When I saw the girl that I cannot stop talking bout
Because her entrance from around the corner
Would've been the cause of d**h confirmed from the coroner
My heart stopped and my breath was taken
But my brain said I've mistaken me saying it's time for playing
Dead set on my game 'cause this dame's far from plain Jane
I can't Tarzan, swing up, asking number and name
Then "How did she?", the answer I wanna ascertain
'Cause she said, "OMG! Dario!? or should I say 'Flame'?"
"You mean 'Fiya'. You a fan?" She like, "Hold up!
Don't tell me that you forgot about me in Florida!"
Searching thoughts...tick tick, dial up...BOOM!
Didn't have memories of her like this in school
But I told her...
Chorus:
I Remember You
But I don't remember you being so dang cute
Verse 2:
"Hehe," she giggles. Yea, the compliment she laughs it off
Told her, "Let's not start calling this a pa**ing nod
Equivalent, so let's condiment...you know ketchup talk
We have to, 'cause how long it's been after all."
Reply, "True." So whip out the cell
Before we part ways told her, "Tickets on sale
We can watch the X-Men then, kick it with Brail
Sound cool?" Said, "Yeah! Text me with the details."
Message read: Pick you up, before we hit the club
Since we're getting up there for the sound check
If that sounded fine...at around nine
Can't wait! I invited some friends of mine
Sweet was my response then, told the homies
The story of our meeting over groceries
Couldn't believe my dealings at Dillons
But Phil and friends kept quoting me spilling
Out that, that
Chorus
(How you gonna get away with saying something as corny as that?)
I Remember You
But I don't remember you being so dang cute
Verse 3:
Showtime encroaches so I approach chick's
Door as it opens, I'm in hypnosis
"I hate you!" She like, "Tell me how you really feel!"
I said, "You know my weakness is you in those 'I k** these' heels!" (and those Achilles)
"You got jokes." Said, "Naw, I give compliments
'Cause anyone with common sense can tell you this with confidence:
You look bad, girl. #HipHopLingo"
"I ain't mad, boy." Then off we go
Get to the club to show up, show out
X-Men go up, go nuts, go out
After the mic's been ripped by the lyrics
With Brail coming with us to eat as we finished
She said, "I'ma go to the ladies room."
Check comes. I'll be a gentlemen and pay for food
Reach in my pocket, feeling no wallet
And my brain stops dialing when I see her smiling
Out the window thinking...
Special Chorus
I Remember You
You was that klepto back in high school
...
I'll Remember You
'Cause I'll remember that cute can steal your loot
And that's true of you!
