Memories (Part II) [feat. John Legend]

[00:06.55] Sometimes I dream bigger than I live
[00:09.48] Sometimes I think better when I'm lit
[00:12.33] So goin and light it
[00:13.09] Roll it up, ignite it
[00:14.25] One time for all my niggas that dreamed it than real life'd it!
[00:17.77] I swear I've been through everything in life but a coffin
[00:20.41] They say thr sky's the limit, how bitch? I'm moonwalking!
[00:24.78] And my middle name Michael ho
[00:26.27] Success is my idol and being broke is my rival
[00:28.69] But it's cool because I got the title ho
[00:30.71] See I just want my fantasies in real life
[00:34.30] You got everything tell me what it feel like
[00:37.32] Muthafuck the radio if I can't hear mine
[00:40.19] They give the wrong niggas more airtime than airlines
[00:43.16] Is you feeling me?
[00:45.72] If not you feel my energy
[00:49.23] See I know I'mma make it, but even if I don't
[00:52.55] Don't feel bad cuz honestly all the times that I had
[00:55.60] Those will be the best memories
[00:58.91] Be the best memories
[01:01.64] I hope that you remember me
[01:05.00] These will be the best memories
[01:12.85] Cause in the end all you really have is memories
[01:17.33] Let's reminisce over the good times and the bad
[01:20.48] Reflect on everything we missed
[01:21.91] Cause you know we'll never get it back
[01:22.43] Are you willing to give up what you love, for who you love
[01:25.02] Or lose your girlfirend to groupie love
[01:28.43] Everywhere I go I get a group of hugs
[01:31.41] Thats what happens when they need connections and you the plug
[01:34.44] How many trends you gotta set before you considered great
[01:37.58] How many missed calls before you considered fake
[01:40.70] How many dreams before its considered fate
[01:44.28] I'm eating in a World where I'm considered bait
[01:47.28] A workaholic addicted to bills
[01:50.05] People addicted to me cuz they addicted to real
[01:52.84] My best friend got addicted to pills
[01:56.19] I can't look at him in his eyes, you don't know how that sh-t feels mentally!
[01:59.74] I aint trying to rock no shirts that say in memory
[02:04.11] I'm praying that he make, wished we could go back
[02:07.39] Cuz honestly all the times that we had
[02:10.55] Those be the best memories...
[02:13.42] Let's reminisce over the good times and the bad
[02:18.82] Reflect on everything we missed
[02:20.24] Cause you know we'll never get it back
[02:36.48] Sometimes reality checks are too big to be cashed
[02:39.74] Was mailed one when I heard Nique had died in that crash
[02:42.98] Seemed like yesterday I just seen him smile and laugh
[02:46.04] I'm stressing over little shit
[02:47.14] When I should be happy I can
[02:49.09] They say my music beating, cause I follow my heart
[02:52.19] I always have faith, like who swallows the darts
[02:55.25] And with my Mama looking at cribs that we can't purchase
[02:58.04] Houses bigger than a palace
[02:59.41] But she a queen, so she deserve it
[03:01.13] So I'm focused, they try to throw me off track
[03:03.66] But they just hurdles
[03:04.35] I'm marathoning to the money and you just running off in a circle
[03:07.35] Man, I'm huddled up with my team, in other words my inner circle
[03:11.10] Fast forward a few years later
[03:12.46] Now we the fucking winner's circle
[03:13.80] Remember the first time I was rhyming for Kan'
[03:17.49] Almost as nervous as the first time I rhymed for my mom
[03:20.56] Sold out the theater downtown, she said it was perfect
[03:23.88] But I already dreamed it
[03:25.37] So it felt like I rehearsed it
[03:26.72] Much as my grandma took care of me since I was birthed
[03:29.82] Sad I used to steal $20 bill right out her purses
[03:33.07] No I ain't perfect, tryna make a gift out of a curse
[03:35.76] Life out of a hearse
[03:37.14] And if I die, of course I have the memories.
[03:40.76] Let's reminisce over the good times and the bad
[03:46.91] Reflect on everything we missed
[03:47.96] Cause you know we'll never get it back
[03:50.98]
