MEMORY
Cowboy Bebop O.S.T 1 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm scared that I'm not making enough memories
Tony Montana, I hang with the scammers then pull up and blam you
This shit post-apocalyptic, I'm obnoxious, I might pick his pocket
"Knock it off," she said we don't talk at all, talk at all?
Bitch, I might just fuck around and dub shit
You is such a dumb bitch, all I do is paper stack
I got spiders tatted, venom attracts
Twilight zone, the butterfly masked
Look up in my past and all I see is models
All my bitches drop dead gorgeous
Swear to god they drop dead gorgeous
Bullshit, all I see is bullshit
Look up in my past days
I was on a hitman mission with a
Banger, she gon' hit up on my line
And wonder what's been on my mind
Knowing she can't save me, in my head I'm seeing demons
Yeah, it started with a lullaby
Said I'll be my own demise
Wish me well, don't say goodbye
Oh, now she's gone
Well she say she wanted "Piece of mind"
I'ma give her "Piece of mind"
Fuck around and resurrect the antichrist
I'm scared that I'm not making enough memories
Tony Montana, I hang with the scammers then pull up and blam you
This shit post-apocalyptic, I'm obnoxious, I might pick his pocket
"Knock it off," she said we don't talk at all, talk at all?
Bitch, I might just fuck around and dub shit
You is such a dumb bitch, all I do is paper stack
I got spiders tatted, venom attracts
Twilight zone, the butterfly masked
Look up in my past and all I see is models




All my bitches drop dead gorgeous
Swear to god they drop dead gorgeous
