Cameron London, Popcasso - Reminisce Lyrics

Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce, reminisce
Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce, to this
Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce, reminisce
Yeah
Mentally taxed remembering times of bliss
When ignorance brought me peace and anguish didn’t exist
But now I’m clenching my fist, struggle not to resist
My hands cuffed I’m restrained, I’m thrown down I’m in pain
It’s four of them and it’s one of me, how many do you need
I pray to God it don’t end like this, I can barely breath
Phone recording while still avoiding
Why won’t nobody help
Dramatization, my mind is racing
Wonder how it felt
Now your flag red and mine is black, but we brothers
Different mamas and different daddies, same gutters
I’m opposition you opposition
We validated in homicide can’t let it slide
So I debated, a generation of curses forever stuck in these verses
To killing who look just like you
We stuck in a vicious cycle
Of endless retaliation, it’s more than some allegations
It’s truth it’s truth
I sit back and reminiscence
About how times weren’t quite like this
Being alive’s a consequence
How did it all end up like this
I sit back and reminiscence
About how times weren’t quite like this
Being alive’s a consequence
How did it all, did it all, did it all end up like this
Stuck between a rock and a hard place
I feel the heat from the barrel in my face
This is a way of life for somebody of my complexion
My life has been losing value
They selling at they discretion
I’m working hard so my kids can have a better future
You don’t comply that’s justification for them to shoot ya
Follow commands they introducing a bullet to ya
Don’t understand but I felt the pain to see through ya
What’s the price for a black man's life
It’s simple, just enough to make they income spike
Cause as soon as you don’t deliver
They finding another source
One that riddle the mics or one that dribble of course
And the women there is just no way to fathom how they die
So many disappear and nobody bats an eye
They tell you all they trauma
And you shame 'em when they cry
Then you talk on how they weak when it’s time for suicide
I sit back and reminiscence
About how times weren’t quite like this
Being alive’s a consequence
How did it all end up like this
I sit back and reminiscence
About how times weren’t quite like this
Being alive’s a consequence
How did it all, did it all, did it all end up like this

Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce, reminisce
Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce, to this
Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce, reminisce
Yeah
Mentally taxed remembering times of bliss
When ignorance brought me peace and anguish didn’t exist
But now I’m clenching my fist, struggle not to resist
My hands cuffed I’m restrained, I’m thrown down I’m in pain
It’s four of them and it’s one of me, how many do you need
I pray to God it don’t end like this, I can barely breath
Phone recording while still avoiding
Why won’t nobody help

Different mamas and different daddies, same gutters
