Mt Eden - The Memories lyrics
rate me(feat. QuESt)
Memories with simple things for once to highlight, twilight
My fireworks commit, 4th of July type
when mickey d's and action figures made you jump for joy
And crushes made in education now seem null and void
Do you remember when summers passed and faded to september
The snow came at Christmas and made you dark clouds surrender
Or back when power rangers made you feel like doing right
despite the ills that fascinated you when they were in your sight
Sometimes I wonder: when did my mind begin to shift?
I leave my thoughts and try to figure out what I missed
Between dreams of music, my little less confusing.
So dropping off the school in my final years
Crying tears, ask yourself what you’ve become
Is this truly elevation, or misplacement?
Or do they coincide and now adjacent
losing patience,
We wished to find the times we sought to once escape
the place we never thought our mental canvasses would paint
Oh, oh, remember it was all so simple
Wean it was all so simple
Remember it was all so simple
Wean it was all so simple!
Hard work kept his eyes
centralized on the prize
Follows in his fathers steps , law school mesmerized
Father died, mother cried,
tells her son to stay alive
chase your dream he'll revived in your spirit, he survives.
Two years, graduates, gets degree, saddest day
Wishes father could be around, but he knows he’s looking down!
in his speech dedicates, to his father levitates
Says I’mma follow when your legacy, and I’ll be great!
Finds a job, finds this place
Struggling to win a case
lawyers say its okay you just started don’t be sway!
Stresses out, pulling hair to his father he compares
This is not what he would want, freaking out, getting scared!
This is where, what is wrong
I thought this was what i want
Why am i undatisfied with who I am, what’s going on?
Who am I, who am I?
Outside of this suit and tie outside of my father’s legacy, I’m just a dude who lies!
Now he’s asking:
Is this what I truly love?
Oh, oh, oh!
Is this what I truly love?
Oh, oh, oh!
Maybe I need to find the sunlight
Oh, oh, oh
Maybe I need to find the sunlight
Remember when it was all so simple
When it was all so simple
Remember when it was all so simple
When it was all so simple
Remember when it was all so simple
When it was all so simple
Oh, oh, oh
Remember when it was all so simple
Yeah, yeah!
