Memories,

Oh
I am the first son of and Edward Mensah
Made love and made a legend, and 47th
Gunshots outside my window, drug deals out by the
But mama always made sure the tooth found my pillow
My pops was workin', he put the family first
Chicago Saturdays in the park and Sundays at
Kept me from off the corner where Stones and GDs was
And Kings and BDs and VLs all had of bein' Jordan
Even fiends was scorin', swish, tryna be like Mike
Shootin' through that baseline in their veins tryna reach that
I was a little rockstar, dressed up like Hendrix
In Hyde park in the good part in the hood like Hemi
Teachers didn't see my vision, had me in
Kicked out of kindergarten, they didn't know 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

He took the out and waved it in my face
If I ain't tell that boy, "Be easy, dog," I died of AIDS
I started realizin' my talents 'bout the I was 15
Tryna take over the world Pinky and the Brain
Sellin' kush and hittin' stains, still in True jeans
16, I was shinin' just a Stanley Kubrick scene
Sneakin' Lollapalooza, I fell off of that bridge
15,000 volts through my elbow, fell over 30 feet
The said 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 will be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all

On street (yeah)
got me high
One day it be mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine
