Remember Me Lyrics

Shouts to the weather man

It's sunny everyday over here now

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Remember me when everything starts to look strange

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Forever I remain trapped in this rhyme page

Cuz like you I was once flesh and blood

Content with not having everything back when less was much

Walked around oozing Hip-Hop like my flesh was cut

A young'un presented with life lessons though the test was up

That was 01' when I started writing raps

Huge brown lyric book, titles was in upper caps

I'd written Such A Beautiful Thing and some other raps

Who knew life would leave a knife scar on my mother's back

When my father died when he was done being some other guy

That pretended to raise me while he made my mother cry

Try to stop the hurt with rap is something that I would try

Cuz I knew that I was here just not to be some other guy

And that was it, that was the difference 'tween them and Tic

That's the reason Zambia adjusts my seat before I sit

It's the reason that I have them all convinced when I spit

I just wanna be the greatest and that's it

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Remember me when everything starts to look strange

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Forever I remain trapped in this rhyme page

And we started to record at some place and got kicked out and then studio time was hard to find and I remember sitting outside a studio somewhere and being given ten minutes to record. It wasn't the most pleasant of times but it was part of the process that shaped us I suppose so… I remember that

Now I'm immortalised through these mortal lines

That I sort of rhyme, I've been dope since daddy crossed the border line

And I did it telling a story that's sort of mine

Sort of everybody else's that feels so sublime

I chose to rhyme like Pac and rhyme like Em

Maybe you'd call me great if I rhymed like them

Maybe I could go Diamond if I rhymed like Tehn

Maybe I could fix the world through a rhyme my friend

Maybe I could fix my mom and dad

Maybe I could solve every problem they ever had

Maybe whenever my sister's sad

Maybe I could make her smile with a Victor track

Maybe…hey, maybe

Just maybe I guess

Maybe I could have a shot if they paint me as fresh

Maybe that Grammy is coming, Ticka, maybe you're next

Maybe you might just survive if you play this roulette

So remember me

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Remember me when everything starts to look strange

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Forever I remain trapped in this rhyme page

Dreamers anonymous

We try to change the world but they say something is wrong with us

In all of these Andromedas

And milky ways

We pave a silk road with our silky ways

Jah be praised for the clean clothes on our filthy days

Leaves me dazed as I look back to easy days

And I say please behave

Don't get me nostalgic with your cheesy ways

All I wanted was to be sure at least we safe

All I wanted was to say that I rep my damn city

And brother is my brother and my sister's damn pretty

I've been trying to be the best since Naeto hollered Las Giddy

I spent my last fifty trying to be some typr of Diddy

And really the journey was the best part of it

Had to make a song cuz I couldn't text all of it

Now I call the shots jumping off collect call with it

Watch this African boy buy the next car with it

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Remember me when everything starts to look strange

Remember me, the kid with the odd surname

Under moonlight practice for the ball game

I was just like you up until it all changed

Forever I remain trapped in this rhyme page
