Yo, you know what we got to do, man, we need to get a whole |
|
CDGet a collection of all the music and everything we've ever done(Bringing back sweet memories)(Bringing back sweet memories)(Bringing back sweet memories)(Sweet memories) |
|
Life, living in |
|
Flat bush and going to house parties |
|
Red lights, bumping, life is what you make it, then sorry |
|
In my lifetime, ain't done too many things |
|
Better than watching your first son put his sentences together |
|
Yo, it kinda make me think of way back when |
|
I was the portrait of the artist as a young man |
|
All them teenage dreams of rapping, writing rhymes on napkins |
|
Was really visualization, making this shit actually happen |
|
It's like something come through me that truly just consume me |
|
Speaking through the voices of the spirits speaking to me |
|
I think back in the day, |
|
I absorbed everything like a sponge |
|
Took a plunge into my past to share with my son(Sweet memories)(Bringing back sweet memories)(Bringing back sweet memories)(Sweet memories) |
|
Like thoughts out the back of my mind going back in some time |
|
Like when you used to cut and had to go to the back of the line |
|
Look back and you find tracks that make you relax and recline |
|
Now cats rap about packing a nine when they lacking divine |
|
Inspiration, running out of topics of conversation |
|
Well I drop it in the pocket because rock is my occupation |
|
I do it remarkably, spark up a leaf and possibly you could follow me |
|
Tap into your chi |
|
Utilize your spiritual faculty, accurately, use your memory |
|
To help you see clearly, then get back to me |
|
Actually, nothing's new under the sun |
|
So when life be stressing me, my remedy is(Bringing back sweet memories) |
|
Like the faces that are woven in the fabric of my consciousness |
|
From cities where making 21's a big accomplishment |
|
Like when my people understood their prominence |
|
And my past life visions of the continent |
|
Like the first time |
|
I saw KRS live, rockin' it |
|
I heard Resurrection by |
|
Common Sense, dominant in my psyche |
|
I chose my direction like |
|
Spike LeeTo speak my life through mics, and |
|
I never take it lightly |
|
It might be something you did to bring you down when you were high |
|
But that karma's a bitch, you steady asking |
|
God, whyLike when my parents first split up, yo, |
|
I was illin' |
|
Seems like some years they was together for the sake of the children |
|
And I love them for that, |
|
I don't know if they saw that |
|
So, I'ma say it, and convey it when the world play it |
|
I'ma say it, and convey it when the world play it |
|
I'ma say it, and convey it when the world play it(Bringing back sweet memories, sweet memories)(Bringing back sweet memories)(Bringing back) |
|
Like black is beautiful, names from the seventies |
|
Let me tap into your energy, fields of dreams become my property |
|
When I reach my destiny like a prophecy, especially when |
|
I 'm(Bringing back sweet memories) |
|
I got deep into my mind, see |
|
I got a treasury |
|
That float through my head like a sweet melody |
|
What you telling me, reflection is a collection of memories |
|
Definitely this is how hip hop was meant to be |
|
Eventually, |
|
I knew I'd run into |
|
Hi-Teknology |
|
It was only a matter of time like centuries |
|
Check the recipe or technique to how it sound so sweet |
|
I freak with word power, my man speak with beats |
|
If I could make it in |
|
New York, |
|
I figured anywhere |
|
I'd make it |
|
Came to Cincinnati linked with |
|
Mood, and we did |
|
SacredHi-Tek beats became my favorite |
|
Hussle on the |
|
Side was the cut |
|
We started to put songs together like, what? |
|
Traveled the world, came back to the crib and hit the motherland |
|
Yeah, this year we put in work and got some other plans |
|
In fact, that's where |
|
I'll take the fam |
|
When the Reflection joint is done |
|
By the time you hear this, |
|
I'll be basking in |
|
African sun, like wow |
|
Yes, we made it, we here |
