Memory Lane (feat. Rapper Big Pooh)

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

And when you look back

Man ain't a damn thing changed

Slim baby from the mid 80's

Reminiscing on my childhood

Some of it's a bit hazy

I use to watch out my window on to South Jersey

And even then I had dreams of monopoly

Listening to Jody Watley was so hot to me

Rick James and Smokey Rob's Ebony Eyes

I'm feeling like, I can see, obviously

I had a tape deck, six big battery D's

I let my tape rock, till my top

Tryna' untangle the tape back to the top

Lucky to have a VCR, we seen

All of the Police Academies

Laughing at them then and still actually

And even though my Grandmother didn't like Thriller

I'm so glad she let me see

It sure would be been nice to have repeat

Cause every time it ended I rewinded from the TV

Really my Aunt could leave me with it playing

And I wouldn't move, except to try the moves

I wouldn't lie to you

But on a hot summer day it was hide and seek

My older cousins played too but they was finding freaks

I seen a lot of things early in the game

But now let's take a trip down memory lane

It's like that y'all

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

And when you look back

Man ain't a damn thing changed

One for VA

Two for Rosie Collins

My grandmother rest in peace

Never ran them streets

I was busy getting early educated

Bout the music but she never saw me make it

Cable in my room, I kept the volume low

Arseno Hall he had the best talk show

School with my friends, talking bout the latest

Music or sports, getting put on to the greatest

My man from New York introduced me to the

Wu Tang Clan

And from the very day I been a Wu Tang fan

OJ on the run here comes the caravan

Rodney King took a beaten, these cops ain't playing

Summers by the sand

One love Uncle Lenny

I ain't have a lot but as a shorty had plenty

We miss you Uncle Zaw, I love you grandad

I enjoyed looking back on all the times that I had

Big brother kicking it

Little sister missing it

Momma's working hard so her little babies benefit

I see a lot of things early in the game

But that's another trip down memory lane

man

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

And when you look back

Man ain't a damn thing changed

One for Jersey

Two, VA to raise me

Now we in the 90s

Different from the 80s

Before I grew it out my brother Riq use to fade me

Sharper than a pin point the way he use to shape me

I was probably in grade three, maybe four

Way before waves and braids hit

S*** I could have either or

My Saturday cartoon was Doug Funny

I'm up early buss'n a grub watching Bugs Bunny

We use to

Watch Back to the Future

Who would've thought most of that, we'd get use to

Jordan and Pippen they use to get it on

But I am a Muslim

So I was more into Olajuwon

Primetime had Martin on

Laughing at him while he was cracking on Pam and Tommy Strawn

My other show was City Guys

I guess I could relate to, the character

His name was Jamal too

And then the day that Pac died

I guess it ain't hit me enough for me to cry

And then the day Biggie died

It opened my eyes for me to start thinking why

I seen a lot of things early I the game

For now, let's take a trip down memory lane

It's like that y'all

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

Down memory lane, down memory lane

Now let me take a trip down memory lane

And when you look back

Man ain't a damn thing changed
