Remember Songtext
von KRS‐One

I remember, you′ve forgotten
To remember, I wonder why
I remember, you've forgotten
To remember, I wonder why


Remember the day, ′member the play
'Member the way we use to say
Di-di-di-da-di-di-di-di-da-di-day
Remember the jams, 'member the plans
′Member the plans you made with your man
Maybe you can or maybe you cannot
Remember the architects of hip hop
It′s really hard to forget about 2Pac
Respect is what the Crash Crew got
Better we ask you not
To recite the history of hip hop on the block
You can forget about Grandmaster Flash if you drop
You know not the teacher returns, have you forgotten?
I speak not to idle concerns, I keep it rockin'
But you have forgotten I′m the holder of a boulder
Money folder, we will be here forever, I told ya
To remind ya, just when them chrome rims blind ya
That them rims come from the expression of what's inside ya
My lyrics guide ya and they fly too
Why don′t you try to find who you rhyme through
I think it's time to untie you

I remember, you′ve forgotten
To remember, I wonder why
I remember, you've forgotten
To remember, I wonder why


Some like it slow, some like it off beat
Some like smooth jazz, I like it all street
We come in all shades, like coke we always
Thinkin' of more ways to leave them all dazed
All hazed, all crazed and all amazed
My last name shoulda been Letterman like Dave
But I wasn′t his slave
I′m referrin' to the way that my lyrics behave
When I rock raves, let off shock waves
Baby, it′s crazy, not too much can stop me
I walk right in, these other cats be knock-kneed
Terrified, they still actin' all cocky
When the storm hits, they be screamin′ "Mami papi"
Aren't you somebody?
I′m from the orthodoxy, it takes more to rock me
Like an attack of the clones, these rappers be carbon copies
And they hardly got the flow
Rhyme style sloppy and old
What's up with the show?

I remember, you've forgotten
To remember, I wonder why
I remember, you′ve forgotten
To remember, I wonder why
I remember, you′ve forgotten
To remember, I wonder why
I remember, you've forgotten
To remember, I wonder why

Mad Lion on the hook up
Jay Rock on the hook up
We do it just like that, just like that
