AceTrouble - I Remember

All I know is struggle pain
That shit really made me change
I don't look at things the same
All I know is struggle pain
That shit really made me change
I don't look at things the same
I remember
I remember
When they tried to tempt us
And got mad when we tensed up
I remember
I remember
Them cold Winters
When we ain't have no dinner

I remember man I ain't forget
Bonzie lost his life and niggas was scared to tell me shit
Prayed that it wasn't legit
Something sick (That'll be over quick)
Went to school and I couldn't speak
I was meek
I felt weak
For weeks
Over some shit that I couldn't believe
Could ever happen to me
(Fuck trying to grieve, bitch I wanted to leave)
Then I lost both my grandmothers
In the same year
How could I build a relationship without having u here?
(I tried not to shed a tear)
Then my little sister died
That shit killed me inside
That shit really changed the tide
I wanted to cry
I wanted to die
I wanted get strapped and give him a fight

All I know is struggle pain
That shit really made me change
I don't look at things the same
All I know is struggle pain
That shit really made me change
I don't look at things the same
I remember
I remember
When they tried to tempt us
And got mad when we tensed up
I remember
I remember
Them cold Winters
When we ain't have no dinner

I was in school
When Trayvon martin died
Teacher told me not to talk about it
Pull me to the side
Told me its our fault we dying
(What type of shit is that?)
No bitch you try to disguise it
Despise with violence
Now I'm deciding
Whether I'm misguided
On who I should be fighting
Fighting violence with silence
That's how I describe it
Police kick the door in
No warning or warrant
Or reason to make the decision
Policed hated to listen
So we fated as victims
Said he fit the description
Shoulda known
Straight through my home
I was 13
AR 15s pointed right at me
I was scared to speak
Fuck you know about paying them dues
Fuck you know about gripping them tools
Fuck you know about niggas aiming at ya manz
Said they looking for you
Getting called racist
Getting kicked out of school
For having differing views
This life I didn't choose
And I wish I knew
I tried to take it away
My mother wanted me taken away
For being insane
So I locked away my inner decay
So that I could stay
And what's displayed is the remains
When I attained the reigns

I tried to kill me
Before you tried to kill me
But I'm still me
And I'll still be
AT
