Do You Remember? by Zack Redman Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Do you remember?
Shit, I feel like I'm saying that at the beginning of most of my songs
Cause all I can do now is reminisce about those memories I had with friends back then because most of them gone
Yeah the city just too small for them
You got your whole life now, is it too late to be a part of it?
I wish I called more, I wish I saw more of you before that plane took off
We used to spend every night riding bikes on the streets
Walking up to the store, mud fights in the creek
Climbing up on the roof, waiting out in the heat
For the ice-cream truck to come by once a week
It was us against the world through the good times
The bad times, The first times, The break-ups, Divorces, The last times
The fighting, The laughing, The crying, and all
So when that plane lands I'll be there to pick you up singing:
[Chorus]
Na-nana-nana~
Nanana-na-nana-nana-na-naa~
Na-nana-nana~
Woahh-oahh-ahh-ahh-haa~
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I have come too far to stop, too far to go back
'Til I'm zipped with the toe-tag, I'll keep on spittin' this shit
And I just wanted you to know that or maybe I just needed to hear myself say it, to get my soul back like on those old tracks
We used to make back in the day
When all that mattered was rappin' and blazin', and whose grabbing an 8th
Vacationing on Salt Spring, relax at the lake
From gathering change for a pack of cigarettes and asking a stranger to buy us a pack
Give him the money then hide around back
Ask for him to place them on the steps, wait 'til leave and start dividing the deck
Simpler times, of a couple of kids just living a life
We didn't understand yet but didn't arrive
At that conclusion until twenty-five with bills on the table and kids on the way, friends beginning to die
Can you relate to this?
Don't be mistaking my playfulness for carelessness, because I came to spit
I'd rather rap about myself as a careless kid, than be on some angry shit
Just singing:
[Chorus]
Na-nana-nana~
Nanana-na-nana-nana-na-naa~
Na-nana-nana~
Woahh-oahh-ahh-ahh-haa~
[Verse 3]
I wanna make something that I've never made before
Maybe one more mixtape, maybe more
I keep flirting with the idea of leaving
Maybe I'll stay one more day like being stuck at a beach resort
Cause I hate the travel but once I get here I forget fear and can relax for a minute
I can detach from existence before the pool fills up
Then I debate with myself if I'll be back next year
But right now? I ain't tired of the sun yet
Life's a bitch and I almost got her undressed
And just because right now, I'm loveless
Doesn't mean I love less, it's just too much stress
And I'm hoping that'll change, I'm over getting over you, I know that I'm okay, (yeah)
No more rowing in the rain, clear skies and I can enjoy floating on the lake, (yeah)
Do you remember?
Shit, I feel like I'm saying that at the beginning of most of my songs
Cause all I can do now is reminisce about those memories I had with friends back then because most of them gone
Yeah the city just too small for them
