Look at the stars
I guess they're really not that far
I sing Sankofa Sankofa it's a new dawn a new day
Ase Ase
Ase Ase
Remembering days
That we use play
Around the way
No bullets would stray
We would slapped box all Day
A few arguments with the Old heads but for the most Part we'd obey
Bb'q'd days laughing away
Seeing yo cousin's every Holiday
Blockbuster on a saturday
Fire Hydrant as a waterfall
Had to lose it all just to Gain it all
Airheads from the corner Store
When quarter bags used To Cost you a quarter
In the shop talking shit to barber
Stealing report cards fore It gets to momma
Squad up after school to See drama
Living life free without no Karma
Remembering days
Friday morning
Wake up starving
Pull up with the pop tarts Late to school I'm always Late so mama whooped
My Ass hard algebra aint Speaking to me f*cking up My heart chakra
Chest was achin
Mama worried
Took me to a heart doctor
Maybe its the grippps I Don't know
Or maybe the pop rocks My God
Or shit my addiction to Hip hop
Up on YouTube all night I Can't stop
Got five more minutes on My phone
But it's almost 9
Gotta re up on a yellow Card walkin down vine
And my call just dropped
Hope my baby online
Then I call and fall asleep At the drop of a dime
I remember what my hallways smell like
I remember what my Teachers sound like
I remember skipping class They was salty cuz I passed
I could do ya lil math
Couldn't stand my lil ass
Had to pass for my niggas That passed
And lock it in for my Niggas locked up
And the ones that gave up
They forgot about us
We forgot about trust
Don't forget about love
Ase Ase
I said Im
Sitting on the stoop
I feel brand new
Im feeling you
I feel the heat in the Kitchen
My skin it glistenin'
Listening to the cloud im On
And when the storm
Comes
And i hear that thunder
It sounds like my favorite Song
And I
I can see clearly now, my lessons learned
I can see all possible ways To grow and change
All of the dark dark clouds Are floating, floating by
And when the sun shines And the moon shines
I know that its all right
I know it gon' be
It gon' be
It gon' be all right
Sankofa its a new dawn
A new day
Ye Ye !
Ase Ase
Ase Ase
I sing Sankofa
Sankofa
Its A new dawn a new day
Ye ye
Ase Ase
Ase Ase

Meemaw told me "pick a switch"
Florida fryin' kitty fish
Sunkist drop like its poppin
Popcicle licki kickin it
