I Remember

I remember way back when I was nine
They tell me I couldn't rap but I knew that they was lying
I was rapping in classes they was laughing their asses
But I knew that I was magic and someday I'd make classics
Cause I knew that I had it
This was deeper than passion
Deeper than a habit B Rabbit
Bot copping a Phantom
Shopping my demo doors closing everywhere in my face
These dreams that I chased,
I was running off pace
But how it changed
Now my phone blowing up all the freaking time
Fake friends saying they always knew I'd touch the sky
Bitches who rejected me wanna say hi
Record labels knocking on my door wanna sign
I'ma go to the moon cause they told me I can't fly
I'ma celebrate cause my dreams came to life
I'ma pop a bottle every night I feel alive
I'ma go hard like this my last time

Grind my whole life for this
I'ma put my life on this
When the lights turn cold and the show's no more
Put my drink to the sky for this
You gonna remember remember remember my name
You gonna remember remember remember my name
Remember my name remember my name
You gonna remember remember member my name

I remember when nobody showed up to any shows
And nobody bought my CD
Had to pull them from the store
Mom and dad turned their back
Cause I was rapping up a storm
Like should I even bother pursue
This rap thing anymore
I was a mess this Johnnie Walker
Helped me ease the pain
Like will I ever make MTV Cribs someday
Cause wherever I went
They tell me I'd never make it
But my heart was impatient
Doctors couldn't save it
But how it changes
Now my phone blowing up all the freaking time
Media ask me for statements no reply
Now they wanna feature cause I'm in prime
I didn't even know you last year this time
I'm a go to the moon cause they told me I can't fly
I'ma celebrate cause my dreams came to life
I'ma pop a bottle every night I feel alive
I'ma go hard like this my last time

Grind my whole life for this
I'ma put my life on this
When the lights turn cold and the show's no more
Put my drink to the sky for this
You gonna remember remember remember my name
You gonna remember remember remember my name
Remember my name remember my name
You gonna remember remember member my name

I remember friends getting married and having kids
And I was all alone
Tryna get married to my dreams
Conversations with myself
Seeing my name on a big screen
While getting a Group-on
To get a Ster Kinekor seat
My self-esteem was outta steam
I mean damn Swizz Beats
Come on when's my turn
When do I get Alicia's Key
I was running outta time
I wanted that Good Life
When will I shine
When I have Empire State of Mind
But now it's mine
Now my phone blowing up all the freaking time
This Kush loud I can't hear you from cloud nine
Don't need a Rolex tell me it's my time
This God's plan this by design
I'm a go to the moon cause they told me I can't fly
I'ma celebrate cause my dreams came to life
I'ma pop a bottle every night I feel alive
I'ma go hard like this my last time

Grind my whole life for this
I'ma put my life on this
When the lights turn cold and the show's no more
Put my drink to the sky for this
You gonna remember remember remember my name
You gonna remember remember remember my name
Remember my name remember my name
You gonna remember remember member my name
