Donny Goines - Mountain Of Memories lyrics
[Hook]: "Mountain made up of memories A mountain is made up of memories It's just to hard to tear on down A mountain is made up of memories It's just to hard to tear on down Whooooooo! A mountain is made up of memories It's just to hard to tear on down" [Verse One: Donny Goines] This is my Everest My mind Exodus Text in the Bible, disciple of my very Genesis Playing Sonic on my Genesis Family was never rich but we tried to make the best of it Three of us in a bunk bed No one care, wasn't much there Only one pair of new sneakers that I must wear for one year Had a whole lot of hand-me-downs Father wasn't there and he can't be found No family around to help me out It was just my mama she held me down Picked on in junior high It was do or die, couldn't lose my life Before I hit 18 I was brutalized This made me come to school with knives Only got worse when brew inside Couldn't lose my prize to a suicide But I figured that I'm a wild juvenile And that was life or d**h, had to choice a side So I bought a nickle plated To curse my pistols blazing Middle fingers in the air, that's a simple statement f** the world, no protection, let's infect the nation Though it's close to home cause I've been trippin', pacin' [Hook] [Verse Two: Brother Ali] It go banana [?] and corn bread Sweet potato pie Kiss me on my eyes when I would think I'm 'bout to cry Taught me how to fly when I was just a little guy Put it in this pile, pretty visions in my mind Deep hatred and cynicism made me blind I was degraded in plenty instances in time The things they said were clouds littering my sky Till the sweet angels whispered to me, gave me sight The way they cared about me is what taught me wrong and right Wisdom they departed gave me heart when it was time to fight Every round I fought you literally get brought to minds Baby just be strong, the greatest love song of all time Seeing how your life will flash before you when you die I pray that the directors cut is what gets shown for mine Wonder why all my pain, it always stayed to the background A mountain of memories you gave me is my crown Love [Hook] [Excerpt for the motion picture Precious]
