Remember
LiL Lyrics

Don't forget about me
It's important to remember my name and what I've accomplished

This bigger than money, this bigger than fame
What I've done and achieved means more to me than material possessions or recognition

Remember everything that I did to get where I'm at
I had to overcome many obstacles and make sacrifices to reach where I am now

Please don't take it from me
I don't want to lose what I've worked hard for

Said I wouldn't change
Even with success, I remain true to myself

I'm still the same, and they love it
My authenticity is appreciated by others

You can hate me or love me
People may have different opinions about me

But I bet you remember, I bet you remember
I'm confident that my name and legacy will be remembered

They never remember
People tend to forget about the struggles I faced and what I had to do to succeed

I did time for a gun, that I never remember
I served a prison sentence for a weapon I don't even recall having

Did time with my son been delivered
My time in jail separated me from my child and caused me emotional pain

I cried tears, I couldn't show 'em my position
I experienced deep emotions but had to hide them from others

No sleep in the hallways
I had to stay alert and vigilant at all times

Me being me, sipping lean with a .30 like always
Despite my success, I still engage in risky behaviors

Couldn't afford Trues, now I sleep on Versace and Balmain
I come from humble beginnings but now enjoy the luxuries of wealth

Danny had the streets on lock so
Danny was a dominant figure in the neighborhood

Still slept with the rats and the cockroaches
Despite financial success, I still face urban struggles

Lost niggas, I lost bitches, I lost time
I've experienced many losses in my life

But I'm back on the block though
I still remain connected to my roots and where I came from

Gang with me also, but it's bigger than money
I have the support of my friends and family, but there's a larger purpose behind my success

End counts all I know
The outcome is what matters most to me

They say I won't make it
Some people didn't believe in me

Now they favor, I got 20 to play with
I've gained respect and influence despite previous doubt

Grew up on Chicago South Side, where you get killed if you outside
I come from a dangerous environment where violence is commonplace

And I made it out, and I'm outside
Despite the odds, I was able to leave that environment and succeed

Name hold weight like a motherfucker
My reputation and status carry significant influence

And I love my niggas like blood brothers
My friends are like family to me

Same niggas, same gang can't change on 'em
I remain loyal to those who have been there for me

One time, no movie
My life experiences are real, not fictional

But I bet that clip gon' hang though
My legacy will be remembered through music and other media

Real street nigga, made it from the bottom
I come from a background of poverty and struggle, but still succeeded

Coming up as a kid niggas gave him nothing
I had to work hard to achieve success, as I didn't have many opportunities initially

12 years old knew I was a problem
Even as a young child, I exhibited talent and determination

All I wanted was money and the fame
I had a clear goal in mind for my future

Cars, cribs, and bitches wouldn't name
Material possessions and personal relationships weren't as important to me as success

I can't change for nothing in this world
I won't compromise who I am for anyone or anything

Lord blessed me two boys and a girl
I'm grateful for my children and see them as a blessing

Two dead 'cause I lost to this world
I've experienced the tragic loss of loved ones due to violence and other harsh realities of life

Crossed over like Flo Rida
I'm successful and have crossed over into mainstream success

Only my squad they both sliding
I have loyal friends who will always have my back

Money and power they both riding
I've achieved both financial and influential success

Caught him and him and they both sliding
My friends and I have taken revenge on those who've wronged us

Trap house, block party, niggas doing the same shit
The neighborhood I come from is still plagued by drugs and crime

And got nothing
Those who engage in these activities often endure little success and end up with nothing to show for it

And niggas try me and that Mac bust
I have little patience for those who try to challenge me or threaten me

And they remember my name
My legacy and reputation will be remembered for years to come
