Just The Memories

(Bone Collector, the plug)

So sweet

Mm-hmm, I ain't going, I ain't here

I got a show tonight

But I ain't been feelin' right, all I see is blurry lines

Baby, would you tell 'em for me?

I can hear them yellin' for me

Tell them I'm inhaling (yeah, I'm inhaling funny)

Baby, now you gotta do it, keep drinkin' a lot of fluid

I'll be here to guide you through it (I'll be here to guide you through it)

And maybe I don't got it in me, maybe it's just time to end it

I'm sorry, may God forgive me? (Did God forgive me?)

So sad

So sad

So sad

So sad

A bunch of memories (memories)

A bunch of memories, baby (baby)

A bunch of memories

It's just the memories

Memories don't live like people do

They'll always 'member you

There's never been another you

You

I 'member when I was the girl that everybody doubted

When every label turned me down, and then they laughed about it

I 'member goin' home and writin' 50 more raps

Just 'cause I knew you really wanted me to fall back

I 'member one of my first crushes in the fifth grade

He got killed, stabbed in the neck with a switchblade (ooh)

I 'member when this girl in the hood thought she caught me slippin'

I got arrested, I assaulted with a deadly weapon

They say they hate Nicki

Mad 'cause they ain't Nicki

All of the colors in the world, you couldn't paint Nicki (ooh)

I never tried for that, these bitches die for that

I swear it, that's on my life, I'd never lie for that

Memories don't live like people do

They'll always 'member you

They do

They do, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Memories don't live like people do

They'll always 'member you

There's never been another you

You (memories)

I told Drake that he don't owe me nothin', never did

I prayed that Wayne always remembered that I never slid

Look at all the shit that y'all threw at me, and I never did

Greatest female rapper to ever live, and that's on my kid

I could've overdosed, could've been comatosed

Wait, hold on, Juice, I feel a baby kickin', holy smokes

I prayed for a son, my husband wanted one

If they ask about me, tell 'em I was one of one

Memories don't live like people do (don't live like people do)

They'll always remember you (they always remember you)

There's never been another you (there's never been another you)

Tell 'em I was one of one (you)

(So fast) memories

(So sad) don't live like people do

(So fast) no, no, no

(So sad) no, no, no, no, no

(So slow) yeah, yeah, yeah

(So sad) yeah, yeah, yeah

(So fast) yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (so sad)

Ooh

Hey, yeah, yeah

So

Yeah, yeah, yeah
