You and I 05:53
you were my teacher not too many reached the kid but you did in a way that I will always be grateful for not talkin' ABCs and 1,2,3,4s I'm talkin' understand what it takes to be a man and more that if I set my mind to it I can and I soar your assurance gives me endurance times when I can take no more I think back to the track me runnin' long distance through shin splints torn ligaments I still finished then I think back to the class either I was cuttin', high, maybe focused on some ass but alas I still passed flyin' colors I got a funny way of gettin' there but this brotha's gettin' there one way or the other from the gutter to the butter yeah now i'm on a roll but I won't forget what got me here I thought that you should know chorus you run across the mind from time to time pushin' forward but sometimes rewind to push it back you don't know where you're goin if you don't know where you been you won't find me forgettin' my past I learn from that so I find myself thinkin' of you from time to time you run across the mind and I wonder do you find yourself thinkin of me it's you and i just it's you and i blessed verse perpetually single ever-ready to mingle spit that game at every dame they were the same until I met YOU you're something different couldn't put my finger on it but reasoning be damned i just know that i want it first relationship, first true love yeah it's you love and now that I done grew up i realized my mistakes i realized it's too late to reconcile cause i heard you plan to walk down the aisle with my replacement you should accept no imitations and i would preach that to the the choir on that day up at your congregation but i heard if you love let it go this is me bein patient see i am waitin' for you to say the word and ditch the herb and come back quit playin but if that day ain't in the card I won't consider it a loss appreciatin' the time we shared you're part of my education I learn from my past if we weren't meant to last i will move past that these wounds'll heal with the time but from time to time I might go back into my mind and reminisce chorus verse although we mostly play it out of sight out of mind on our respective grinds, grind till we're out of time I, you know I wouldn't have it any other way and we don't have to see each other every other day or every week, or even every year all you gotta do is say the words i'll be right there that's word bond see that's the shit we been on since day 1, 2, 3, and to the 4 and those beers got poured those joints got lit a couple lines got cut lost a couple boys to that shit young and stupid but grew with passin' days and everyday a glass is raised to their memory i put em in the rhymes and they'll live on through me others tell their story they'll live on through them and we'll have a smile have a cry every time they're mentioned but keep em in the diction so we don't forget em no matter where we go we'll always be connected no place like home Michigan born and bred don't forget it won't let it leave the memory so from time to time my mind is focused on my family in the D and that's REAL chorus
