ATG - Just Remember Now lyrics

[Produced by Ali the Great] [Verse 1] I remember back in the days when I was young I always wanted tattoo tears just for fun I didn't have a gun Cause Mike Reynolds taught us three strikes and you're done [?] on the run Then I heard "One Love," and what I'm thinking next is: What a brother got to do to make it out the 'jects? No more picked pockets, no more Zip-Locs And innocent girls putting ends in the pimp's pocket No more battle scars, I'm thinking caviar You know ribeyes, wave her bye-bye To rocking Dada, dipped in Prada, twisting la-la I want the whole enchilada, if not, nada In need of a lot-a inspiration for dreams I've been chasin' Somebody say, "Amen" (Amen) Waiting for the day when, one day it'll make sense [Hook] So just remember now (It'll all be over) So just remember now (It'll all be over) So just remember now (It'll all be over) So just remember now (It'll all be over) [Verse 2] Back in the days, I let my pants sag JanSport bag and a .44 mag XXL used to be my favorite mag Used to use the word 'fresh' way before 'swag' I seen Money Boss pull up in his new Jag Shaq in his E-Cla** taught me about street cash Belly had me rocking bow ties, playing both sides Pushing bean pies, living la vida loca I couldn't take it anymore, long nights, cold weeks No heat, hand-me-downs, torn sneaks Take a break from the routine Try and see where you've been, where you're at And right where you need to be Instead y'all CB4, y'all got low cash Limousine, Rolls-Royce as I rose past From Shields Ave. to Rosecrans Where gun control means to use both hands [Hook] [Verse 3] Just waking in up in the morning, gotta thank God I'm not the reason that your momma got her bank robbed If I wasn't rhyming, probably be smuggling diamonds Or juggling jobs for pay, hustling chronic But I would make the decision to make it out Took the road less traveled, yeah, my favorite route Prepared for the worst, and hope for the best I let my tires taste the road to success Memories of the projects, bopping to an older ca**ette Fantasizing about unloading a Tec I had a lot of rage bottled in at a young age I smoked haze, swallowed gin, jot on a page Til' Planet As' sat me down, so did Aren, yes They was preparing the prince, it was apparent That my struggles would only be temporary No need to sit and worry, I felt rich already [Hook]
