Check this, I reminisce
for a spell as y 'all
I say think back 22 years
ago to keep it on track
The birth of a child
on the 8th of October
A toast, but my grand
daddy came sober
Count all the fingers and the toes
Now I suppose you hope the little black boy
grows 18 years younger than my mama
But I really got beatings
cause the girl love drama
In single parenthood, there I stood
By the time she was 21, had another one
This one's a girl, let's name her Pam
Same father as the first,
but you don't give a damn
Irresponsible, plain not thinkin'
Papa said chill,
but the brother keep wakin'
Still he wrote down
you would tear out your hide
On your side while the baby make a slide
But mama got wise to the game
The youngest of five kids, hun, here it is
After ten years without
no spouse
Mama's getting married in the house
Listen, positive over negative
For a woman, a master
All the queens rise in a chapter
Deja vu,
tell you what I'm gonna do
When they reminisce over you, my God
When he rockin' me
I said,
when he rockin' me
Yeah, he so lovely
That's how we like to do it in the 90's
When he rockin' me
When I date back,
I recall a man off the family tree
My right hand Papa Doc, I see
Took me from a boy to a man
So I always had a father
when my biological didn't bother
Takin' care of this,
so who am I to pick her?
Not a bad ticker,
but I'm clockin' Pop's liver
But you can never say
that his life is through
Pop kid's at 21,
believe he got a right to
Here we go, voila, check the scene
With a Portuguese lover at the age of 14
The same age, front page, no fuss
But I bet you all you know
they live longer than us
Never been seen,
now that's where you're wrong
We give the man a taste
and he's going, going, gone
Noddin' off, sleep to a jazz tune
I can hear his head bangin' on the wall
in the next room
I get the pillow, hope I don't wake him
This man the cuss,
hear it all in verbatim
Telling me how to raise my boy
unless he's taking over
I said pop maybe when you're older
We laughed all night
about the hookers at the party
The old man standing yelling
good god almighty
Use your condom, take sips of the brew
When they reminisce over you,
check it out
I reminisce so you never forget this
The days are way back,
so any bear wit ness the fitness
Pick the first letter out of each
word in this joint
Listen close as I prove my point
T to the R -O -O -Y,
how did you and I meet?
In front of Big Lou's fightin' in the street
But only you saw
what took many time to see
I dedicate this to you for believin' in me
Rain or shine, yes in any weather
My Grandma Pam holds
the family together
My Uncle Doc's the greatest,
better yet the latest
If we're talkin' bout a car,
Uncle Sterling got the latest
Tried to be live cause I got no choice
And run my own business
like my Aunt Joyce
Pete Rock hit me, not respect, dude
When they reminisce over you,
five thousand
Listen, just listen to the fuckin' song
That's all I call,
and that's where it's born
I'm not playin',
every body just coolin'
This song of that day
could be rockin' to the one and only
Never be another, who was my mama
It's like that's your
And it don't stop You
You rockin' self school for 92
And we out
And we
out
Just mess with Shlain
Just mess, mess, mess
Just mess with Shlain
Just, just, just
