Yo, just when I think that I've forgot you
|
I hear that thug that we used to rock to
|
Just when I think I'm gettin' on without you
|
Somebody passed and asked me about you
|
|
Was in the back of the cab the other day
|
Swear to God I saw you walking passed the other way
|
My heart rushed, my face flushed, tell the driver
|
Hit the breaks slow the pace up, wait up, it wasn't you
|
|
Realized it's a mirage I was running to
|
Damn, can the affects of love and time
|
'Cause the mind to trick the eye?
|
I wonder how you gettin' by
|
|
And all the stars still in your eyes
|
Then you still just get the five
|
You break the bank to spend the time
|
I reminisce of shifting time, to when you was mine
|
|
Years ago, in a mist of hallways and sliding doors
|
Missing links of very very obscure
|
Vision of you shine but only for a short time
|
My mistake I didn't pick up on it till years down the line
|
|
Here now as I reminisce, will I ever see your face again?
|
Baby as I lay back, will I ever see your face again
|
As I reminisce, as I reminisce
|
|
Hold still, the Divine has placed us in a small world
|
And thankfully so our paths cross once more
|
And to whose surprise but mine was 14th and 6th
|
Was the placed where we combine once more
|
There at the front door of the corner store you stood
|
|
I reminisce infection
|
As I lay back will I ever see her face again
|
As I reminisce, as I reminisce, yeah yeah yeah
|
|
A happy story always ends, as it starts
|
But with few exceptions involved
|
We became an item me for you and you for me
|
Good times, sickness and health
|
Broke ass, and richness, baby we made it work
|
|
Yes sir, yo I reminisce over this chick colder than a soda
|
Princess a soldier raised in Islamic culture
|
Sexy as the girl on the Jamaica poster
|
Men are over seas where there really don't be no sisters
|
Brought her on stage as Bilal sang 'Soul Sista'
|
|
In body parts the blood was thicker
|
Sweet only tryna make sure it ain't the liquor
|
She was with a nigga come to find out
|
She and sister backstage, conversation kissed her
|
Made me forget to remember that I pimp the dime
|
|
Put the pimpin' aside I see Kenya in her eye
|
Our connection lies in a life before
|
For us to meet again was Divine law
|
So I can't describe how deep I dug her
|
Now only in memory can I hug her, I reminisce y'all
|
|
Oh my God
|
