Paroles de Reflections (i remember)

I remember, i remember
I remember, i remember
I remember, i remember
I remember

Back before the record deal and the cars
And the cribs and the way that things took off
I was signin' at lucy's on 1-25th, just tryin' my best to get on
Back when me and puff and b.i.g. was kids and i knew jodeci
I was young and tough and fresh in love and it was all a dream

Signing a contract, no guiding light, just hopin' i
I can get out the projects
And get my family right 'cause they were my life
In red zones, in bentley's, you can catch me, tryna do me
I was jaded on the block, i coulda faded on the block
But i made it off the block and i

I remember, back when i didn't know which way to live
I remember, back when pain was all i had to give
The reflections of my life, i see the lessons that i've learned
And now i know, heartbreak don't exist when it's been torn apart by love

I use to throw a fit, i use to shed a doubt
And blame it on a man but that was mary than
And this is mary now, you gotta understand
It's about how we respect ourselves
And the men have no control of our self-esteem
And when we see that then we can let go, oh

I remember, back when i didn't know which way to live
I remember, back when pain was all i had to give
The reflections of my life, i see the lessons that i've learned
And now i know, heartbreak don't exist when it's been torn apart by love

Now i made some mistakes, i lost some friends along the way
But i don't carry it 'cause it made me a better chick
It's my life and i know that there's more for me to see
(so much more)
I may not be what i'm suppose to
But i can tell you right now, i ain't what i use to be

(i remember)
I remember when i didn't know which way to live
(i remember)
I remember when pain was all i had to give
The reflections of my life, i see the lessons that i've learned
And now i know, heartbreak don't exist when it's been torn apart by love
(i remember)

I remember, i remember
(i remember)
I remember, i remember
The reflections of my life, i see the lessons that i've learned
And now i know, heartbreak don't exist
When it's been torn apart by love, by love
(i remember)

Don't exist no more
(i remember)
But i remember, i remember
(i remember)
I remember, i remember
(i remember)
I remember

I remember
