I Remember

Lyrics

[(Aretha Franklin) KRS-One] (I remember) Big Daddy Kane (You've forgotten) Salt-N-Pepa (To remember) Outrageous clothes (I wonder why) Uhh, oh (I remember) Heavy D (You've forgotten) Kool Moe Dee (To remember) Dope videos (I wonder why) [KRS-One] Remember the day, remember the play, remember the way we used to say... "Dee-dee-dee-da-di-dee-dee-dee-dee-da-di-dayyyyy" Remember the jams, remember the plans, remember the plans you made with your man Maybe you can or maybe you can not Remember the architects of Hip-hop It's really hard to forget about Tupac Respect is what the Crash Crew got Better we ask you not to recite the history of Hip-Hop on the block You could forget about Grandmaster Flash and get dropped You know not, The Teacha returns, have you forgotten? I speak not to idle concerns, I keep it rockin' But you have forgotten I'm the holder of a boulder Money-folder We will be here forever, I TOLD YA! To remind ya Just when them chrome rims blind ya That them rims come from the expression of what's inside ya My lyrics guide ya and they fly too Why don't you try to find who you rhyme through? I think it's time to retire you [(Aretha Franklin) KRS-One] (I remember) MC Lyte (You've forgotten) Stetsasonic (To remember) Fancy bars (I wonder why) Oh, oh (I remember) Brand Nubian (You've forgotten) Nice & Smooth (To remember) Those candy cars (I wonder why) [KRS-One] Some like it slow, some like it off beat Some like Smooth Jazz I like it all street We come in all shades, like coke we always Thinking of more ways to leave them all dazed, all hazed All crazed and all amazed My last name should have been Letterman like Dave But I wasn't his slave I'm referring to the way that my lyrics behave When I rock raves Let off shockwaves baby, it's crazy, not too much can stop me I walk right in, these other cats be knock-kneed Terrified, they still actin' all cocky When the storm hits they be screamin' "MAMI! PAPI!" "AUNTIE! SOMEBODY!" I'm from the orthodoxy It takes more to rock me Like in 'Attack of the Clonesc These rappers be carbon copies And they hardly got the flow Rhyme style sloppy and old What's up with 'The Show'? [(Aretha Franklin) KRS-One] (I remember) Public Enemy (You've forgotten) Dana Dane (To remember) Outrageous clothes (I wonder why) Yo, oh, oh (I remember) Doug E. Fresh (You've forgotten) Das EFX (To remember) Videos (I wonder why) (I remember) W-H-B-I (You've forgotten) K-Day! (To remember) Outrageous clothes (I wonder why) Oh, oh (I remember) Red Alert (You've forgotten) Fab 5 Freddy (To remember) Videos (I wonder why) [KRS-One] Yo, oh, ah, yes, do it Do it, ah Mad Lion on the hookup J Rock on the hookup Oh, we do it just like that Just like that
