Rasheed - Reminisce lyrics

[Rasheed] This world for my taking Rasheed, for the 1999 Here we go (Verse 1) This weed got my brain burnin' Learnin' as the world turnin' Concernin' the truth I reminisce as a youth Mommy fightin' daddy while I'm developin' in the stomach While he punchin', I'm feelin' it comin', I feel that momma hummin' Numbin' the brain Cocaine flowin' through my veins Born addicted, afflicted up in this pleasure and pain I guess that's the reason for the natural chip up on my shoulder My children keep me from growin' colder and livin' bolder I bent the block and think about when I was on lock Then got my Glock and put it back up in the stash box So many soldiers doin' life up in the prison system A million eyes couldn't list 'em, so I reminisce them I miss 'em As I'm floatin' back to yesterday I sure would kiss 'em If I could see my G again today But now I'm up in the studio With my n***a Ro Fat money G's, big T We reminiscin', G Chorus: Rasheed Time and time again As I pick up the pen As my thoughts emerge These are those words (We reminiscin') Time and time again As I pick up the pen As my thoughts emerge These are those words (Verse 2) I used to ride trains from Philly To New York state But now I'm on Planes to Cali from Texas With Lexus plates Hun Even so, though I wish I could go back Granny sittin' while I'm throwin' rocks On the railroad tracks Flashback "Rapper's Delight" Marvin Gaye During that time My mother and father Was out the way Damn And now that I think about it We all been to jail, plus my teacher say, "You'd never doubt it" At school What a fool I was Skippin' education for the fun to run from the fuzz '85, '86 Crack c**aine was the crucifix Lucifer's mix Another level of the Devil's tricks Fifteen, on the scene, gotta make my green Break my weight by any means Learnin' every street schemes C.R.E.A.M., Cash Rules Everything Around Me But I learned Not to hound the money, but let the money hound me {*Rasheed ad-libbing*} Repeat Chorus (Verse 3) 1999 Here I be Ballin' G In 21st century, destined for d**h eventually Was the boy Cuttin' cla**, breakin' the rules But now, I'm the father, makin' sure My children go to school It's beautiful, but then again, it's funny, back in the day Somebody told me life was just about b**hes and money Damn dummies Misdirected so many Used to watch Tom & Jerry Now it's South Park and Mr. Kenny Watch riots Martin Luther King L.A. Riots Down to Rodney King Vince is the momma in the pen That was back then But ten years later, I'm doin' the same thing again, my friend Lookin' at my son, deep in his eyes (???) headed is the lifestyle that my family lives Deeply embedded I have to wait Watchin' this I'm hopin' ten years down the line, my daughter or son'll reminisce And miss us Repeat Chorus Twice [Rasheed] We reminiscin' Reminiscin' Reminiscin' {*Rasheed whispering Chorus til fade*}
