Songtext von I Remember

I remember when I was young Watchin' the risin' Sun Wishin' that I was someone else I remember when the nights were long Singin' my momma's songs Pickin' the pieces off the ground, mm-hmm Pack a lunch, a tuna sandwhich in a brown paper bag Shop at Ross, [?] before the first day of class Anything to save a dollar, dollar Yeah, I got it from my momma, momma Ain't nobody lookin' like me when I walked into match Had the teachers treat me different, made me hate bein' black Feelings I ain't even acknowledge, acknowledge Till I finally got to college, college And I was only age twelve when my first friend he died Jumpin' off the same bridge, we laid the [?] stuck in drive Through the foggy, even pourin', pourin' And he ain't escaped the boredom I remember when I was young Watchin' the risin' Sun Wishin' that I was someone else I remember when the nights were long Singin' my momma's songs Pickin' the pieces off the ground, mm-hmm Do you believe me now? Do you believe me now? Traded the monsters in my closet For childish dreams and hopeless nonsense Do you believe me now? Do you believe me now? Dealin' with issues I've been dodgin' Just give me some time, I'll shake 'em off me Do you believe me now? Do you believe me now? Traded the monsters in my closet For childish dreams and hopeless nonsense Do you believe me now? Do you believe me now? Dealin' with issues I've been dodgin' Just give me some time, I'll shake 'em off me, mm-hm
