As I sit in my silver stack thinking about way back

Even before I started blazing the chronic sack

I was a young wild unfocused troublesome kid

Looking up to all the gangsters and the shit they did

I was at an impressionable age through a faze

An unmentionable stage deranged full of rage

Walking through life in a haze with dark clouds

Hanging over my head being wicked and loud

And sometimes those demons haunt me and taunt me

Follow me, pursue me, confuse me, they want me

They come at me from all angles and dangles

Memories in front of me, but I won't run away

I put the gun away but sometimes my hand ditches

But I don't want to get locked away 'cause I whack bitches

I left those ways back in the old days

So go away, I don't got no time to throw away

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (We fight and we struggle out here so we can stay alive)

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (Got to do what I got to do out her so I can survive)

I got my education on the streets

And I learned how to spit rhymes out with or without beats

To say whatever I went through or going through

Tripping off people who acting like they been knowin' you

Learn how some of these record companies be holdin' you

Attaching an image, in the end controllin' you

But we set out to set ourselves apart

And let these people know just what they had from the start

It's like Ghostface said, we studied our art form

We turned the mic on and spit a fucking dark storm

People slept on me and doubted my skill level

But I'm tenacious and I got a strong will level

You been introduced to some of the real rebels

Injected with venom from god to kill devils

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (We fight and we struggle out here so we can stay alive)

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (Got to do what I got to do out her so I can survive)

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (We fight and we struggle out here so we can stay alive)

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (Got to do what I got to do out her so I can survive)

I remember my days as youth

Teenage gangsters with somethin' to prove

See man amuse and we creep and we strew

Catch your ass slipping and dump on their crew

Just having fun, but you crazy kids

Never thought about no prison beds

Got gangsters servin' twenty-five and alive

Never see the kids all fucking wild

But that's the game and shit don't change

Get respect for smoking brains

You get a name and you build your rep

You courting fools coming in your set

Before you know, we're having fun

Slanging, doping and packing gun

Leaving mad traces and blasting their faces

Got a hundred years for all my fucking cases

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (We fight and we struggle out here so we can stay alive)

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (Got to do what I got to do out her so I can survive)

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (We fight and we struggle out here so we can stay alive)

Memories they haunt me (They haunt me)

They follow me to the day I die (Got to do what I got to do out her so I can survive)
