i remember

Lyrics

, i want you to sit back, close your eyes, and think about all those wonderful times that we used to have here, now i know things aren't the way they use to be right now, but they are going to get better some day, and i know that. ever since i was about 12 that's when they documented me, a gang member let me tell you my autobiography, ay i can't let it to be frenetic, it must have been genetic, to get in trouble with the law take when i break, i'm strapped from the balls that's what i use to do, smoking a joint or two lil' rob getting a little blaze, welcome to my concrete maze, remember the days, i remember going to school, we meet by the track smoking a sack, with the vato i sold it too, get him stoned, then i jack it back, remember the guero use to look at us all, funny and strange, cause my pants was bigger then theirs, but now they all wear them the same, i used to get jealous, wondering why i didn't have the same rights, is it because i'm running up and down, eating menudo, frijoles and rice?, someone explain to me, all of this insanity, i'm not understanding you, never understanding me, when a minority, gets their priorities straight, we become the majority, inflate, incredible rate, controlling our fate, controlling our states, and i can't wait, remember you told me i would never amount to anything, that i'll probably be on the streets sellin mota or methamphetamines, so what? it made me an extra buck when i was shit outta my life, you'd do the same thing homie if you were stuck, and i remember, when times was easy, that's what everybody says, but not me, wicked ass times on s.d. streets, but i still loved them, and had to have them. and i remember!, remembering the things we used to do, the places we used to go, and i remember kicking under the street lamps, smokin a j, hearing my homie say, homie pass the joint this way, and this was everyday and every night was the same, we didn't call each other by our first or last, but by nicknames, dreamer, peewee, oso negro to name a few, one passed away, rest in peace, the others locked away in prison blues, one of the things we use to do, can't nobody take it away from us, we used to live life dangerous, time flew away like angel dust, never known as presentado levas, stay away from metiches, and chepas, talking mentiras, cause they can't beat us, mira lil' rob on his lowrider bicicleta, looking for munecas, beautiful like aztecas, but when it comes to love, before the agony for the ecstacy, what comes around goes around, so baby don't mess with me don't be testing me, cause lil' rob be one of a kind original individual, unforgettable memorable indelible incredible inferable, give all of my love to mi madre padre brother and sister, and all of my sangre, enemies? chale me vale verga estas afuera mirando padentro, you wanna come in but you can't, cause we're not in love with no mensos, figuring it out like a pencil, treat one like a stencil, just when you think you've got a grip on life, that's when you let go, ready set go, it's a race to the finish and only the best gonna win this, and i'm prepared to take it to outer limits or until it's finished business, what is this? gente becoming witnesses, i don't know nothing, i don't hear nothing, i don't see nothing, something i learned as a kid, along with respect those who respect you, forget about the ones that will forget about you, my recollection is a collection of a big section of mi vida, memories i need ya, like a junky needs his chiba, i wish that i could go back and do it all over again, but i know that that ain't happening, so i sit remembering,
