[Verse 1]

I remember days whipping in my mamas Honda

Another show with Trill puffing on that marijuana

Can't forget the day when I first met Swish

And we got high as hell till we couldn't see shit

Remember when I told my mom

That i was done with school

I got a different route with a couple things to prove

Remember when I first met Le'Ann at 14

Way before the rap, or the name, or the dreams

I remember the first time we kissed at the mall

I knew right then and there you would be here for it all

And I remember the first time that I saw my daughter

Looking in her eyes I was scared to be her father

Scared to bring her into a world that's so broken

I remember feeling so low and so hopeless

But my baby got a smile that lighten up the room

Strong like her daddy, with her mamas attitude

I remember sitting in the back yard with Bobby

Telling me about his life and how he didn't want me to copy

I remember when told me that I was different

Focus on that music son and one day you'll be living

I remember when I got jumped at Tom Browne

And Jesse popped up and started laying people down

I remember ditching school back then with Riley

Told him bout the pain and the hurt I kept inside me

I remember when I got the news that you was gone

I broke down in my room and just wanted to be alone

I remember feeling on my own in the rain

Blunts back to back

Just trynna hide the pain

I remember days that I didn't have shit

Holes in my shoes picked on by other kids

I remember when they tried to rob me in the hall

I called my brother phone

He pulled up and cracked jaws

I remember when he told me

"Be on your toes if your back against the wall

You be a man and never fold."

I remember when they caught me slipping up in Vic

Let off a couple shots and I'm thankful that they missed

See I remember my first show

I remember that whole night

I remember them sending shots but never wanting to fight

I remember when they tried to hoe

And then they tried to bro me

I remember when they switched up and claimed that I was phony

I remember when my uncle told me

"You never know who want your spot

So keep your circle small and tell the rest to kick rocks."

I remember when I fell asleep on that bus stop

Finding out you on your own will make your fucking heart drop

Or should I say heart stop

Cause my shit feeling critical

I'm just being literal

Pain far from typical

Been getting shit together mayne

Mixing up the ritual

Gotta keep it spiritual

Just trynna heal the pain

I remember going through it

I remember all them days

And I wouldn't take it back

Cause man I turned out okay

Might be a lil lost

Still trynna find my way

But i learned it could be worse

And i thank God that it ain't

I'm just in the studio

Blowing blunts reminiscing

Lot of ups and down

For a youngin on a mission

They been trynna hold me back

But I know my destination

Tell the top i'm in route i'm done waiting

I'm tired of waiting


[Outro]

Yeah , Yeah

I'm tired of waiting

I'm done waiting

Dream City

That's forever

Look'
