歌词
[Verse 1]
(Ooh)
[Verse 2]
(You remember)
When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(You remember)
When there was no Facebook, no Youtube
Never invade the colleges
(You remember)
That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
(The future is so great, you can't forget the past)
[Verse 3]
I'm passionate about this memory, I got this feeling
Question to the leaders and me ask them what them dealin'
See, say that the world need a spiritual healin'
What about the youths that we leavin'?
Cyberspace take with their minds only that them a believe in
The elders get bitter so them stop from teachin'
Miles from the youth then how you a'gon' reach him?
(Tell me how you a'go reach him?)
[Verse 4]
We remember in the past but if there wasn't no past
Just remember, say, there wouldn't be no future
So I say it with all costs on your behalf
Just like a'Christ died for the youths, yeah
It's just a moment in time to mesmerize your mind
You better acknowledge the truth, yeah
If your objective is crime you keep being unkind
(Then your own weapon will shoot ya)
[Verse 5]
When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
When there was no Facebook, no Youtube
Never invade the colleges
That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
(The future is so great, you can't forget the past)
[Verse 6]
Certain good things happened in the past
Now everything change, everybody move fast
And the youth must see them act like them last
Everybody wanna be a rebel without a cause
When we put our hands out
Roll down South, everybody coulda wrote all about
Now the tensions are high, it won't touch the sky
And plan now for try get you out
[Verse 7]
Mannerism (Is depletin')
Your past is (Deletin')
Them fi know life's more than a flask
And the children used to listen to the teacher
Now the children them a gon' like them are the teacher of the class
Hey, Mr. Satan, give a good morning
Not a even question to ask
[Verse 8]
But you can't blame the youth
They don't know the truth
Now won't you wait and stick to the task
[Verse 9]
(You remember)
When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(You remember)
When there was no Facebook, no Youtube
Never invade the colleges
(You remember)
That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
(The future is so great, you can't forget the past)
[Verse 10]
(Remember)
(Remember)
(Don't you remember?)
(Remember)
(Remember)
(Don't you remember?)
[Verse 11]
(You remember)
When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(You remember)
When there was no Facebook, no Youtube
Never invade the colleges
(You remember)
That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great, you can't forget the past
[Verse 12]
(Ooh, ooh)
