Caffeine - Reminisce Lyrics

Intro/Chorus: Le-Le, (Caffeine)



Hahahahah, c'mon, uhh

Reminisce, reminisce with me (Grimey)

Come go with me (So much shit in this ghetto)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Grimeys, uhh, grimeys)

in the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me (Starsky, corruption, grimey)

Come go with me (Nigga grew up f*cked up and some)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

Yeahehyeah



I tak you back to reminisce on when the times was better

It was way before the cheddar

And niggas flossin big baguet-tas in their neck-lace

Ghetto wasn't so mellow at this time

Rewind and you'll find the year was '85....

We was dead broke, me and my brother and my mother

copped the one-room flat, no cover just a floor mat

The dresscode then was tuff skins and croker sacks

Hit the scene at 15 and then, copped me a sack

No joke, it seemed like then it was a crime to be broke

Watchin my people scuffle in the admist of gun smoke

Peer pressure got me f*ckin bitches at lunch

then we're shakin them stunts to get high, blaze a blunt

Just to stay calm, I kept a pistol in my palm

just to breeze thru these concrete streets of Vietnam

Don't be alarmed, this f*ckin world was built around a twist bit

Mama never told me there'll be days like this

Shall we reminisce......



Chorus: Le-Le, (Caffeine)



Reminisce, reminisce with me

Come go with me (Can you think back with me huh?)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Can you think back to when you was in junior high?)

in the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me

(Uhh, high school, brought up in this shit)

Come go with me (Them was the days baby)

so you can see the way that things they used to be(Love em)

Yeahehyeah



And f*ck the suburbs and the meadows, baby we can party in the ghetto

where niggas keep their weapons concealed, it's all real

What happened to Joe? He got smoked two weeks ago

Wouldnt've died if he kept his eyes in his own vehicle

You know how the game goes when you caught up in the struggle

and got two jobs to juggle, wish my father was here

to reminisce it with me, a f*ckin shame

I guess I gotta charge it to the game, but shit ain't the same

as it use to be cos it use to be

you could smile to get wild in your own f*ckin community

Block parties, street fights, kids flyin kites

Big wheels flyin down hills on dirt bikes

Fool what happened to the love? It used to be so lavish

But now niggas parish over bitches, weed and cabbage

Flashy habits, imported fabrics and plush tones

We need to leave that bullshit alone

Now can you think back with me, c'mon?



Chorus: Le-Le, (Caffeine)



Reminisce, reminisce with me (Now can you think back?)

Come go with me (So much shit in this ghetto)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Think back to when you used to play, play freeze tag)

in the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me

(Play tackle football in the middle of the street with all ya partners)

Come go with me (Ha)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(And then we, then we hit a lil', lil' girl scout down the street, ya

wanna)

Yeahehyeah(Play hide and go get in this shit?)



Reminisce, reminisce with me (Ha ha ha, uhh)

Come go with me

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Sit on the porch all day)

in the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me

(Niggas steal for the weekend, y'knowhutImean? Sunshinin)

Come go with me (Run lights)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(We're here for the street lights, you know you, you know you gotta

be here for the streetlights)

Yeahehyeah



Reminisce, reminisce with me (You know that shit)

Come go with me (That's same shit that nigga's can't forget right)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Ain't nothin like the ghetto baby, uhh)

in the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me (That's right)

Come go with me (Niggas was raised in this shit, y'know)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Now niggas switchin for better thangs)

Yeahehyeah



Reminisce, reminisce with me (Uh, better things, flashy rings)

Come go with me

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Wit deez, they bet-ter, ha ha ha

in the ghetto, reminisce, reminisce with me

(Y'know, ha ha ha, flashy cars, big homes and shit)

Come go with me

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Imported thangs, y'knowhutImean?)

Yeahehyeah(More of them thangs we need, y'knowhutImean?)



Reminisce, reminisce with me

(Niggas ain't tryin to be greedy though, ha ha ha)

Come go with me(I just spread the love with my partners, ha)

so you can see the way that things they used to be

(Y'know, that's how we do, nigga we're from the ghetto mayn)

in the ghetto

Reminisce (yeah uhh)

(Skrilliano talkin to you baby, uhh)

(This how we usually do, this how we do now)

Reminisce (All we do now is get money)

(Seikos, and reminisce on those)
