I Remember Lyrics by J. Monty

Level 54

2015

[Intro]
Yo (Yo)
Uh huh (Uh huh)

[Verse 1]
I was never one of them kids in the grocery store
Rollin' on floors and flappin' my legs
Cause instead of handin' me candy my daddy woulda slapped me instead
Then I would've acquired a big knot that would've sat on my head
And had to go to school the next day lookin' like Gumby came back from the dead
Growin' up I liked those chicks with the wide old hips
If she had the right wrong switch, it'd make my thigh bone twitch
Then I gave my life to Christ so slick that if the sky zone splits
I might go quick like that iPhone 6
Sportin' my brand new wings with the white chrome tips(Tips)

[Pre-Chorus]
See vanity candidly handed me damage she's
Managing all of my fantasies hiding behind that canopy
But the Lord wants me to regain my humanity
So I demand to be everything that He plans for me

[Chorus]
I remember the day I found out that you knew what my name was
But the people around me, they been waitin' for me to change up
Don't let them take me away, don't let them take me away (Away, away, away)
Don't let them take me away, don't let them take me away
I remember the day I found out that you knew what my name was
Don't let them take me away, don't let them take me away (Away, away, away)

[Verse 2]
I was never one of them kids that would hate the new dude
That came in school cool
With a fade and new shoes
So I break a few rules and take this dude's food
Soon as I started runnin' into Jesus to replace my loose screws
The wrong friends started comin' with the season like some Ramen noodles
Tried to explain to dudes who, indulge in the wasted boo-boo
That I can't force 'em all to obey the truth too
But they can choose to
Rappers, pastors, nowadays they sound the same
So who's who? Breakin' news, ooh
Some of them are collaboratin' with Satan, who knew?
So you would exchange the new you for some fame from YouTube
When fame'll fool you, make you coo-coo
You'll be wearin' skates and tutus and playin' with voodoo
Any person or thing that could take me away from my Savior is fufu
That's why I grabbed the hem of His garment when that angel flew through

[Pre-Chorus]
See vanity candidly handed me damage she's
Managing all of my fantasies hiding behind that canopy
But the Lord wants me to regain my humanity
So I demand to be everything that He plans for me

[Chorus]
I remember the day I found out that you knew what my name was
But the people around me, they been waitin' for me to change up
Don't let them take me away, don't let them take me away (Away, away, away)
Don't let them take me away, don't let them take me away
I remember the day I found out that you knew what my name was
Don't let them take me away, don't let them take me away (Away, away, away)
