Breezewax - I Remember (feat. Ahnom) Lyrics

A long night and a cold drive
Searching for warmth in my soul like
Grandma's cooking in the blazing sun
Both burn hot while she preaches in her native tongue
I may be sleeping in a warm bed
In a room dark only from the curtains
A whole 8 hours worth of sleep
In a home that I keep, you ask me I'd say I earned it
That first time I felt a Dilla beat
The first time I wrote a love song
And even though it was incomplete
It was sweet when I held ol' girl in both arms
I'm searching for some warmth like
When I felt compelled to hold you
I'm searching for some warmth like
How your touch felt on old wounds

And it's been cold for a while
This storm might never end though, so I'm leaving it now
In search of something new before the good had gone bad
That reminds me of the home that I had
And it's been cold for a while
This storm might never end though, so I'm leaving it now
In search of something new before the good had gone bad
That reminds me of the home that I had
Can I recall?

I remember what that feels like
(To see that I'm needed, to feel, completed)
I remember what that feels like
(To feel independence, no dark to contend with)
I remember what that feels like
(To have the time to be one whose mind runs free)
I remember what that feels like
I won't stop searching 'til it all starts to feel right

Like the first time I earned victory
Saw my body for what it could be
A temple that's adorned with the gold
So now I'm so in control when I express myself physically
Yeah, with that flow I could go on and on
Put it on repeat like when Erykah sang "oh on and on"
Make it everlasting like auntie's love for her oddest son
This verse be an ode for wilted leaves touched by an autumn sun
Searching for warmth, searching for light
Stretching fingers out to reach the most perfect of heights
That same struggle for growth has now come to my soul
Has been applied to my path and sole purpose for life
And ay, I felt warm in my heart today
Told my pops that I'm on my way
He replied take time on your drive
And if you're tired, got a new home if you wanna stay

And it's been cold for a while
This storm might never end though, so I'm leaving it now
In search of something new before the good had gone bad
That reminds me of the home that I had
And it's been cold for a while
This storm might never end though, so I'm leaving it now
In search of something new before the good had gone bad
That reminds me of the home that I had
Can I recall?

I remember what that feels like
(To see that I'm needed, to feel, completed)
I remember what that feels like
(To feel independence, no dark to contend with)
I remember what that feels like
(To have the time to be one whose mind runs free)
I remember what that feels like
I won't stop searching 'til it all starts to feel right
