Memories IV (You)

[Intro]
Hey
I made a song called, uh, outside view
But I only had a chorus and a verse on it
And that was supposed to be memories four
But it tackled the same topic as this song, so
It's all good, I'll go with this song

[Verse 1]
Take you back to memory lane, the energies same
Not rappin' for a relevant name
Back then, had friends that rapped and didn't
Had dudes that were cool with my music
Influenced me to do what I do and I grew with it
Knew I could shoe kick it with 'em a minute and spit it
I'm a go through a list from people that did and that didn't
That made me this way I am in this image
Nick, the first real friend I had
Seems like it's been my whole life knowing you man
Livin' at grams, right across the street, yeah it felt like fam'
But I knew u on the Marquette tracks, no target on backs
In the house or outside, games or grass
No mistakes of that, unless we breaking bad
When u moved though, damn I hated that, yeah
But I remember I would sleep over everyday
Felt like I stayed way more at your place
In the backyard playin', makin' forts from blankets
You supported me, so I'm a be here thankin'
So If you need a text or call it's fine
I'm a be here, yea, childhood friends for life

I went camping with ya, with your fam before
We always built forts and Saints Row

[Verse 2]
The next best friend I had, his name was Kyle
His style was so very crazy and wild, huh
Funny guy and yes very true
He matched my ways but not made for the booth
Met 'em in fourth grade and there it would click
Almost everyday we'd be misfit kids
Chillin' playin' games, talkin' 'bout dumb sh-
Be quite or else your moms will riot
Yea, playin' catch with the football
Hangin' with Devin, chillin' all night long
Watchin' Santagato, playin' Rocket League
But when it came to time, I'm the one that had to leave
You moved hella houses but still stayed closed
You were always on my side, I remember you most, oh

Every morning playin' football at Jerstad
You showed me Minecraft

[Verse 3]
You also introduced me to Keshawn
Friend of a friend but then we made beats and songs
Made music together, made these mixtapes
Keshawn, Kid
Kash, K Dot, DJ
Twista, damn how many rap names?
Have you used since I knew you way back in the day
I would be trudgin' my Playstation from place to place
Either yours or mine, we'd play GTA
And 2K, and BO2, aye
WWE too, makin' moves, FBI was the crew
Been a minute since we kicked it
I miss them old raps we spitted, freestyles and writtens
Playin' ball and rappin'
That was our call to action
No more claws to back when
We were talkin', chattin'

I only savaged that heist skit
We'd always go to the gas station

[Verse 4]
Keon, remember we would play them basketball games?
Throwing balls to the curb or my grams playing change?
Re-innovating new rules and new games
Bumpin' MMLP2, Madden and GTA
Playin' Skate or wrestlin', pretendin' to do
Them moves or we went to North Park playin' hoop
Or the back of the Kmart parkourin' at the park
Your friends with us, chillin' till it got dark
I remember this time you and Lonnie came through
At like 3 A.M, knocked on my door, never knew it was you
Guys, wanted to go to Jerstad and shoot some hoops
I said it was coo'
Even know you were a couple years older
You never turned your back and never gave the cold shoulder
So thank you for that

You also introduced me to Young Sinatra Logic
Which is dope as hell

[Chorus 1]
So, take you back to memory lane
I don't remember the address, I remember the name, I'm sayin'
Take u back to memory lane
If u remember the spark, we can rekindle the flame, I'm sayin'
Take you back to memory lane
I don't remember the address, I remember the name, I'm sayin'
Take u back to memory lane
If u remember the spark, we can rekindle the flame, hey

[Outro]
Shout out all the people I mentioned
All good friends, all great friends actually
Shout out all my friends families that supported me and let me come over when I wanted or needed to
Also some other friends that I didn't, ya know
Structurally make a verse around and left out
Wanna name some off and a couple things I remember them for too
Shout out Lonnie, Marquette days
Lived right across the street from me
I think you introduced me to Keon too
Shout out Kaden
Played football all the time and kill the man on Marquette
Shout out Devin
You, Kyle and I chillin' all day in 5th grade
I remember makin' that board game and that song and that volcano for science with ya, um and
Shout out Mark
You were like my first real best friend when I moved out to Colorado
You always bumped my music and hopefully you still will, uh
Just know I didn't forget ya Wisconsin and Fo
Co
Just wanted to look back at all the good memories and friends I've met along the way and became close with
I guess you can kinda tell what I liked, uh, in my childhood with, with, how I, how many times I mention it in the song
(WWE, playin' basketball and football, rappin, playin' video games, and just being with the homies)
This is like a friend chain cycle
See how everybody introduced someone new to the circle
I feel like
And on Marquette and my grandmas
And Jerstad and North Park
Seemed that's where it all, all started
Lookin' back at good memories, hope that you remember me
Shout out Rob Hicks and also my bro Chuck Craze
They both made a song before about their closest homies and I, and I really look up to them and I wanted to pass on the tradition
Also last couple of people, Tyreek, Chris, Jayden, Dante, Hannah
You guys were there too for me and I appreciate that
And um yea
(Thoughts interlude, memories for you)
Hopefully I see everybody in the future 'cause you never know
