[Intro]
You know so often in life
We have to chose between our appeals
Our fears and our God
Yea

[Chorus]
I remember
I remember when I told me never give up on me
And don't you ever cry over people acting phony
If they tell you that they love you don't believe them
Nine times out of nine you don't need them
I remember, Yea
I remember when my homie
Chose to run up on me
I thought that I would never see the day
I thought that I would never be ok
Sometimes your closest friend ain't your closet friend

[Verse 1]
I remember ridin' hunnid thousand dollar Benz
I thought that me and her could forever win
But things often fall apart when you over sin
I swear, y'all don't even know the half of this
Miraculous miracle tragedious
How a young boy traded riches for activist
Trying to be a light in the dark
Trying to be a spark in a room full of matches
Unfortunately, my past and future keep clashing
I thought that I could pay it all back on the backend
People knocking at my door asking what happened?
Even people listening to this track
And you simply couldn't imagine
But I'll never spill all the ills that my soul feels
You probably catch way back in the greenroom laughing
Or on stage, probably rapping
Something lyrical bragging how God saves
Yea, so lets just keep it light
I'd hate for you to fall in the hands of my kryptonite
I'd hate for you to understand I don't sleep alright
Struggling to agree that He's forgiven me
Struggling to believe that His grace suffice
I didn't get where I am overnight
Bit off way more than I can chew
I guess that's why I got an overbite

[Chorus]
I remember
I remember when I told me never give up on me
And don't you ever cry over people acting phony
If they tell you that they love you don't believe them
Nine times out of nine you don't need them
I remember, Yea
I remember when my homie
Chose to run up on me
I thought that I would never see the day
I thought that I would never be ok
Sometimes your closest friend ain't your closet friend

[Verse 2]
That was just a warm up
Just a little calm for the storm up
If you still rocking with me get an arm up
Hard to see the devil in disguise guys
Need to realize he ain't got no horns up
He, He out here looking quite delicious
Promising to take rags and bring riches
He tried hit me with hat curve ball
But nah I ain't swing at nan pitches
In the streets they like tommy what happened to you?
We used to get high but then you got religious
We used to go rob but now you go an read scriptures
Me and my homie got saved at the same time
But then his faith walk start glitching
I guess his heart had parts missing
Cause his hand in the sky with a bird flipping
So it's me and God, it was very hard
But nah I ain't start...uh uh
I mean nah I ain't start tripping
Cause worst come to worst
And I ain't got a friend I'll lean on the lamb risen
Good God Almighty got the script flipping
So yea I'd rather walk alone
Then fall into the hand of a fake friend ambition

[Outro]
I remember
I remember when I told me never give up on me
And don't you ever cry over people acting phony
If they tell you that they love you don't believe them
Nine times out of nine you don't need them
I remember
I remember when my homie
Chose to run up on me
I thought that I would never see the day
I thought that I would never be ok
