Now only in memory can I hug her, I reminisce y'all
Was in the back of the cab the other day
You break the bank to spend the time
Baby as I lay back, will I ever see your face again
Then you still just get the five
As I reminisce, as I reminisce
Hit the breaks slow the pace up, wait up, it wasn't you
I reminisce of shifting time, to when you was mine
Swear to God I saw you walking passed the other way
In body parts the blood was thicker
Good times, sickness and health
Broke ass, and richness, baby we made it work
And thankfully so our paths cross once more
As I lay back will I ever see her face again
Brought her on stage as Bilal sang 'Soul Sista'
Men are over seas where there really don't be no sisters
Sexy as the girl on the Jamaica poster
She and sister backstage, conversation kissed her
Princess a soldier raised in Islamic culture
My mistake I didn't pick up on it till years down the line
'Cause the mind to trick the eye?
And all the stars still in your eyes
Vision of you shine but only for a short time
Our connection lies in a life before
Realized it's a mirage I was running to
Damn, can the affects of love and time
Put the pimpin' aside I see Kenya in her eye
She was with a nigga come to find out
I wonder how you gettin' by
Hold still, the Divine has placed us in a small world
Sweet only tryna make sure it ain't the liquor
Was the placed where we combine once more
We became an item me for you and you for me
Yes sir, yo I reminisce over this chick colder than a soda
Years ago, in a mist of hallways and sliding doors
And to whose surprise but mine was 14th and 6th
As I reminisce, as I reminisce, yeah yeah yeah
So I can't describe how deep I dug her
My heart rushed, my face flushed, tell the driver
Somebody passed and asked me about you
Missing links of very very obscure
Here now as I reminisce, will I ever see your face again?
A happy story always ends, as it starts
There at the front door of the corner store you stood
For us to meet again was Divine law
But with few exceptions involved
Just when I think I'm gettin' on without you
I reminisce infection
Made me forget to remember that I pimp the dime
