Reminiscing Lyrics by Young Manny

First Impressions

2020

[Verse 1]
Taking you through memory lane, follow my verses
Born in Toronto, the move to PK was certain
Spent a lot of time writing, story wise I was a wordsmith
Made comic for my class, they fiends for the work, shit
When not writing it was Pokémon inna sandbox
Couldn't wait to show off the Charizard that my dad bought
But my homeboy would beat us, all his figures, deluxe
For Christmas, asked for bigger gifts from Mamima
Grade five my style, tommy with track pants
Grade six, I learned I was a black man
Grade seven, started rocking jeans and a bald fade
Grade eight, thought I was made great for ball games
School like prison then, you play in the compound
I needed some recess for me to really calm down
Oh man, where did all the time go man
Not yet old but I feel it in my soul when
[Chorus]
Reminiscing, I'm re-watching my past
Reminiscing, I'm having fun looking back
Reminiscing the people that I hold dear
And the places that would lead the boy here
Reminiscing, I'm re-watching my past
Reminiscing, I'm having fun looking back
Reminiscing the people that I hold dear
And the places that would lead the boy here
[Verse 2]
McGowan told me in grade nine I was a hassle
Lucky she was my angel guide inside that chapel
When I moved recklessly, teachers stayed pressing me
Notes bout essays to parents, both sides would lecture me
Early morning snoring waiting at my bus stop
At sixteen all that bullshit must stop, just watch
Yo I got the G2 (what?) yeah you heard me
Borrowed the dodge, I'll pick you up in my mom's journey
In those cliques of high school, I guess I was a nice dude
With an attitude and aptitude to write smooth
Looked quite cute with my prom date, sweet like palm bay
It was a team effort, need my boys to cooperate
Last year as a minor, means major celebrations
But my parents were more focused on graduation
Finished applications, life's racing so fast
Sometimes I wish we could all just go back
[Chorus]
Reminiscing, I'm re-watching my past
Reminiscing, I'm having fun looking back
Reminiscing the people that I hold dear
And the places that would lead the boy here
Reminiscing, I'm re-watching my past
Reminiscing, I'm having fun looking back
Reminiscing the people that I hold dear
And the places that would lead the boy here
[Verse 3]
Summer sixteen flew by so swiftly
Can't count the hangouts I had in Whitby
Now we are fixed towards new destinations
We're dream chasing, passion's been awakened
But fears in me are deeper than a great glacier
Will I graduate, become great and make paper
I gotta repay all of my parents paid favors
Took a chance on the man, gotta aim for greater
Heights, I gotta take flight, new friends play nice
Make jokes and make light, the school's in plain sight
Parking on the blacktop, unpacking my baggage
Staring up my laptop looking for all my classes
Confused by school routes, stuck inside mazes
First time on my own, don't recognize any faces
In spite of fear, excited 'bout the new mission
But my first night here, I called my friend and we started
[Chorus]
Reminiscing, I'm re-watching my past
Reminiscing, I'm having fun looking back
Reminiscing the people that I hold dear
And the places that would lead the boy here
Reminiscing, I'm re-watching my past
Reminiscing, I'm having fun looking back
Reminiscing the people that I hold dear
And the places that would lead the boy here
