Remember What I Said Lyrics by Elijah Yo

Neighbourhood Plug

2018

[Intro]
Uh, Ay
Ay Just remember what I said
Ay Just remember what I said
Man If I end up dead from a bullet to the head
Just remember what I...
[Verse 1]
Look, Man this is power to the people
Im speaking’ to each and every one of my equals
Im tryna build something’ everlasting’ and far from evil
Im tryna tap into the culture make it something’ peaceful
Instead of being’ in court for doing’ something’ illegal
Im tryna Teach you that theres more then whats in front of us
Im tryna reach you from a place where more then one of us is Climbing
Grinding takes time but shit its fine when All the stars aligning
Cause We some Diamonds that just need some shining
& Unity In the culture is timeless
& Biggs says how you think we got to the islands
Sticking’ thru the weather
I see ego tripping’ now more then ever
Born ready for war like Samoa Forever or being’ Tongan is better
If we were smarter we’d be doing’ it together
Instead of cutting’ down our own people Being’ Severed
By each other but when I address it they just say whatever but look
We needa start Supporting’ Each other
You my brown skin brother I got love for the colour
Thats my brown skin sister and I swear that I love her
Like my fam cause we fam needa love one another but look
I stay grateful for the people that surround me
& Shoutout to everybody around me
The Middle fingers risen for all the people that doubt me
Cause Im Tongan and Im Maori8 But I say that shit proudly
& See I look at Jay Z & I Know inside
That guy is just a man shit and so am I
& I usually I keep that shit aside
But I know’ deep inside I needa share it with you’ so you keep Inspired
And never listen to people that say your Dreams’ll die
Cause most times there the ones who haven't even tried
And when you make it they’ll be wanting’ a piece of the pie
And when you say nah watch them hate cause you Beat them in life
And fuck the hand that we been dealt
Don't do it for your mans do it for yah Damn self
Shit can get out of hand & even when its unplanned Understand you don't need another man giving’ you Hand outs
The plan now is win at all costs
Too many times man my people been Lost
But this generation of leaders’ll never stop
I ain't a’ kid Im’a Motherfucking’ Boss
[Chorus]
Just remember what I said
Ay Just remember what I said
& If I end up dead from a bullet to the head
Ay Just remember what I said
Ay Just remember what I said
& If I end up dead from a bullet to the head just Remember what I...
[Verse 2]
Man this is power to the people
We need change Nowadays
But I swear Nothin’s gunna change til we change our ways
& They tell us that we careless & reckless
But on some real shit man tell me that that Ain't our race thats Out there raisin’ havoc
Causing’ riots for clout
On my Big Worm shit you not Applying’ yourself
Saying’ shit to the judge like you been crying’ for help
Til’ I see you on the street and you be eyeing’ me out its like...
What the fuck you even staring’ at
Victimiser myself if you staring’ Im staring back
& if were gonna scrap then fuck it were gonna scrap
But see thats what the system wants just to keep us in the trap
Keep us hating’ each other they wanna see us neglect
They wanna us to fade away they wanna keep us oppressed
But see I'm like a Gun the bullets are in my breath
& When I start speaking’ out there gunna try keep me suppressed
But I flex
& Until my dying’ days Im’a show my people the ways
Of working’ and getting’ payed
& When I say payed I'm not talking’ minimum wage
Im talking’ being’ boss buying’ a house in the bay
When I say payed Im not talking’ about a grave shift
9-5 shit Im not talking’ being’ a slave
Im saying’ don't be afraid
Im saying’ don't runaway
Im saying’ that when I make it Im putting’ us on display
Cause ... Living’ a normal life I couldn’t Bare the thought
As kids we needa open up to our parents more
& to the parents man we needa feel like theres support if we want other things in life then whatever you parents want
We needa feel like we can speak and we’ll be heard
Instead of feeling like every word is just a word
The fact that you don't know the real us is just absurd
We gotta put on a mask to go home man thats bezerk
& Actin’ like It ain't really nothin’ is even worse
Laugh it off at school but inside knowing’ it hurts
Feeling’ like, they don't even really know your worth
All they care about is you going’ school & going’ to church
& that turns into just church and going’ to work
And thats really all until you go in a hearse
But fuck it I needa say even if its my last words
Our ways is what needs to go in the dirt
Just remember what I said
