Memories,

Oh
I am the son of Betsy and Edward Mensah
Made love and made a legend, and 47th
Gunshots outside my window, drug deals out by the
But mama always made the tooth fairy found my pillow
My pops was always workin', he put the family
Chicago in the park and Sundays at church
Kept me from off the corner Stones and GDs was warrin'
And Kings and BDs and VLs all had dreams of Jordan
dope fiends was scorin', swish, tryna be like Mike
Shootin' through that in their veins tryna reach that height
I was a little rockstar, dressed up like Hendrix
In Hyde park in the part in the hood like Hemi engines
didn't see my vision, had me in IEPs
Kicked out of kindergarten, they know that I was me
Tattooed my tears, wrote my story in my
Because as a boy I always knew I'd be the man

In my (In my dreams)
I saw it in my (yeah)
The will be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine

On 47th (yeah)
got me high
One day it will be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all

At age 12 I learned the difference between and black
Police me off of my bike, I landed on my back
to reality, oops, a victim of gravity
Where they you down and keep you there
Dependin' on how you keep hair

My sellin' yay
Sebastian got me high first time

Couldn't my face
Sprayin' paint to see my name on trains, try not to a case
Age 13 at Cam house, watchin' him shoot up the Ace
He took the out and waved it in my face
If I ain't tell that boy, "Be easy, dog," I coulda of AIDS
I started realizin' my 'bout the time I was 15
take over the world like Pinky and the Brain
Sellin' kush and hittin' stains, still in Religion jeans
16, I was shinin' just like a Stanley Kubrick
Sneakin' into Lollapalooza, I fell off of that
15,000 volts through my elbow, fell over 30 feet
The doctor I should be dead, still alive and still ain't scared
In the hospital bed, these rhymes in my head

In my (In my dreams)
I saw it in my (yeah)
The city be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine

On 47th (yeah)
Sebastian got me
One day it be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine
