Remember Them Days (feat. Eve)

It's all good now

It's all good now

We out the hood now

It's all good now

We out the hood now

We out the hood now

It's all good now

We out the hood now

It's all good now

Who thought we'd see the day

When we're kick our feet up?

Laid back, exhale, put the heat up

No stress, no scale, no jail could keep us

Only case we catchin' now, I'd be a misdemeanor

Remember we used to hustle thinkin' life would cheat us

Now knowing if we struggled, life could treat us

Think on how mommy carried us, where life gon' leave us?

Knowin' if we gettin' married, our wives gon' need us

If for one time, you could look into my mind

When I close my eyes and remember them times

No gas, had a hot plate heat our dinners

No cash, most nights, ate sleep for dinner

Welfare and white landlord, that life ain't easy

Only ones is movin' up is George and Weezy

All my sugar water babies who live in autos, it's crazy

You keep it in the dark, I'ma speak it from the heart

Remember dem days, livin' all days in doubt?

Remember dem days, thinkin' there's no way out?

Remember dem days, not knowin' which way to route?

It's all good now, we out the hood now

Remember dem days, all of us under the covers?

Remember dem days, heatin' up the house with the oven?

Remember dem days, thinkin' that life ain't love us? Come on

It's all good now, we out the hood now

Remember kids who run the block?

You never thought they would get harmed

Only time our block got wet was when the sprinklers was on

Think about that time, dawg, that wasn't long

Now that we got kids, think when we was born

Comin' up in my hood was hard, every day my mom cooked with lard

Fucked up, I couldn't feed myself, livin' life no means of wealth

Eatin' shit I can't believe myself, that's not a joke

Man, I was dealt these cards and I played 'em out

Yeah, the road was rough, but I made a route

Now, picture runnin' extension cords from your neighbor's house

To get lights, fuck Max on the latest routes

Used to close my eyes, try to fade it out

Dumb **** in the hood think I made it out

Man, that showed me just where they mental at

And tell me half of these cats ain't been through jack

Remember dem days, livin' all days in doubt?

Remember dem days, thinkin' there's no way out?

Remember dem days, not knowin' which way to route?

It's all good now, we out the hood now

Remember dem days, all of us under the covers?

Remember dem days, heatin' up the house with the oven?

Remember dem days, thinkin' that life ain't love us? Come on

It's all good now, we out the hood now

Yo, every day I thank Deke and Rola

For introducin' me to Dame and Hovah

Ever since that day I met Jay, man, I knew my pain was over

They let me in this game, it's over

Mom, I know I put you through hell

But now I'm gonna order you Heaven

No more temporary layoffs like Florida Evans

Ain't no good times about dat there, your boy rhyme now

It's fine now, we out dat there

Fuck that Access car, I'ma work extra hard

To turn that into a platinum express card

You can have sweet dreams at night

Your boy ain't out there with dem toys and them pings at night

All dem cracks and the gats, left that life alone

It's the tracks and the raps and the microphone

Wish y'all would fuck that up, now

Shit, it's all good now, we out the hood now

Remember dem days, livin' all days in doubt?

Remember dem days, thinkin' there's no way out?

Remember dem days, not knowin' which way to route?

It's all good now, we out the hood now

Remember dem days, all of us under the covers?

Remember dem days, heatin' up the house with the oven?

Remember dem days, thinkin' that life ain't love us? Come on

It's all good now, we out the hood now
