Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Let's get 'em, Mary)
Don't forget to remember me
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, don't forget shawty, hey)
I'll be back so remember me
(Hey, hey, hey, so remember this)
Please keep me in your mind if we ever have to part
Don't forget to remember me
Ay, the king, modern day Martin Luther, Malcom X
I'm officially the freshest, don't dare forget
I'm gone momentarily, don't bury me, yet
Like Ali got, I got tha title back, prepare for that
When the world needed to ask where he was at
But when he need somethin' back, fade to black
Talking behind his back, you a hater for that
I don't expect nothin' less in the game of chess
You think five moves ahead and not behind
Jumped up, cheered when I got my time
Like yeah, one whole year I got in the grind
But get me losin' off your mind
Shawty, may I remind you that there ain't another
Who done been through what I been through
Time after time again you better get some in you
When you said it was over for him
And you thought he couldn't continue to floss
Here's to your memory loss, sucker
Don't forget to remember me
(Ah, don't forget shawty)
I'll be back so remember me
(Hey, don't forget shawty, ya, ya, remember this shawty)
Please keep me in your mind if we ever have to part
(Hey, hey, hey, so don't forget shawty)
Don't forget to remember me
They say outta sight's out of mind
And nine times out of ten, me and out of pocket out of line
You do it big, everybody that you out shined
Then your old lady fate talk 'bout how she got fine
She say she was tryin' to get away, he say about time
Right now we all thinkin', damn hopin' not mine
But when it's lights out for you and you're locked down
Ain't no tellin' whether or not your lady when and got down
With that crawl town 'cause he hot now
Rippin' up your love letters, liftin' up her night gown
Right now somebody baby momma gettin' piped down
Kids in the next room listenin', momma pipe down
The thought hurt, don't it? But maybe she's strong enough for it
Or ain't get that lonely 'cause you wasn't gone long enough
Trump, it's just a temporarily setback
It's on when I get back, please don't forget that
Don't forget to remember me
(So don't forget, shawty)
I'll be back so remember me
(Ya, hey, it's the king, bitch!)
Please keep me in your mind if we ever have to part
(Hey, hey, hey, don't forget shawty)
Don't forget to remember me
(Drop it, Mary)
I don't mean to feel like this, don't mean to think like this
My heart just has to be sure
That the love that I give to you, that's the love I get from you
I need to be safe and secure
(Hey, hey, just let me know you're thinking about me)
Don't forget to remember me
(Hey, hey, hey, don't forget shawty)
I'll be back so remember me
(Hey, don't forget shawty, hey, what's on your mind, shawty?)
Please keep me in your mind if we ever have to part
(Hey, hey, hey, don't forget shawty)
Don't forget to remember me
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Hey, just a friendly message for everybody in American
Who thought I was gon' fail
Partner, it's a year and a day and counting, you understand that?
By the time you hear this, I'll pro'ly be halfway home
Now remember that, suckas

Line by Line Meaning
Don't forget to remember me
Please remember me after I leave
I'll be back so remember me
I will return, remember that
Please keep me in your mind if we ever have to part
Remember me fondly if we must separate
Ay, the king, modern day Martin Luther, Malcom X
I am a leader and represent those who fought for justice and equality in the past.
I'm officially the freshest, don't dare forget
I am the best and want people to recognize my talents.
I'm gone momentarily, don't bury me, yet
I may physically leave, but don't give up hope on me
When the world needed to ask where he was at
People have doubted me before
But when he need somethin' back, fade to black
People disappear when they don't want to give you something you need
Talking behind his back, you a hater for that
Gossiping about someone is not productive and shows jealousy
You think five moves ahead and not behind
To be successful, you need to plan ahead and not dwell on the past
Jumped up, cheered when I got my time
People were happy when I achieved success
Like yeah, one whole year I got in the grind
I worked hard for a year to get where I am
But get me losin' off your mind
Don't focus on my losses or setbacks
Shawty, may I remind you that there ain't another
I am unique and irreplaceable
Who done been through what I been through
I have overcome challenges that others have not
Time after time again you better get some in you
I have persevered and others should learn from me
When you said it was over for him
People doubted my ability to succeed
And you thought he couldn't continue to floss
Others thought I couldn't maintain my success
Here's to your memory loss, sucker
Insulting those who doubted me
They say outta sight's out of mind
People forget about those who are gone
And nine times out of ten, me and out of pocket out of line
When I'm gone, people may talk badly about me
You do it big, everybody that you out shined
When you succeed, others may feel inferior
Then your old lady fate talk 'bout how she got fine
People may gossip about your significant other when you're gone
But when it's lights out for you and you're locked down
When you're in trouble or facing hardship
Ain't no tellin' whether or not your lady when and got down
Your partner may not be faithful when you're gone
With that crawl town 'cause he hot now
Someone else may take your place and become successful
Rippin' up your love letters, liftin' up her night gown
Your partner may move on and forget about you
Right now somebody baby momma gettin' piped down
Someone else may be with your partner when you're not there
The thought hurt, don't it? But maybe she's strong enough for it
It may be painful to think about, but perhaps your partner can handle it
Trump, it's just a temporarily setback
My struggles are only temporary
It's on when I get back, please don't forget that
I will return and resume my success
I don't mean to feel like this, don't mean to think like this
I don't want to feel insecure about my love
My heart just has to be sure
I need to be certain of my partner's love for me
That the love that I give to you, that's the love I get from you
I want love to be reciprocated in our relationship
I need to be safe and secure
I need to feel protected and loved in our relationship
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Repeating 'no' for emphasis
Hey, just a friendly message for everybody in American
Sending a message to my supporters
Who thought I was gon' fail
Those who doubted my success
By the time you hear this, I'll pro'ly be halfway home
I will be closer to my goals by the time you hear this message
Now remember that, suckas
Remember my success, doubters
