I remember it like yesterday
Please forgive me for my yesterdays
(My yesterdays)
I remember it like yesterday
(Yesterday)
Look
Yesterday I took my son to the river
Taught him how to fish
So he knows when he gets bigger
That lesson taught him patience
And two to Never give up
I can't think of life without him
When he calls I always pick up
I'm thankful for my yesterdays
Them times we struggled
I just knew there would be better days
Been in some trouble
But that trouble
Never led me stray
And everytime the devil came
I never let him stay
Uh
Forgive me for my yesterdays
I know I messed up love
But that was yesterday
You know I use to be a scrub
But that was yesterday
A changed man
But my past is how they measure me
Uh
Forgive me for my yesterdays

Living like a villain
I knew I would make a killing
Insufficient funds
Member back when we was stealing
Trying to make it home
Before we end up in a prison
We told em we was poor
But ain't nobody want to listen
Running home crying
Cuz somebody took your money
Momma said I bet not let nobody
Take it from me
I was always hungry
Always in and out the fridge
Not saying I was starving
Lift my shirt
You see my ribs ha ha
Laughing bout it now
But at the time it wasn't funny
Thinking to myself about how
I'm a make some money
Me and cuzzn Body
We was out there burning junkies
Didn't know what I was doing
I was out there like a Dummy
Yeah
I remember it like yesterday
Uh
I wish my cuzzo wore a vest that day
Auntie pulled the plug ain't want him
Living in a veggie state
Was afraid to die
But I guess I feel it less today yeah
Forgive me for my yesterdays
I know I messed up love
But that was yesterday
You know I use to be a scrub
But that was yesterday
A changed man
But my past is how they measure me

Member little ol me
In front the Christmas tree
Looking for my Jordans
Hoping momma could afford em
Yesterdays seemed harder
Specially growing without your father
One thing that really scars ya
Good days seemed further away
I remember it like yesterday
Granny sending us to school
Said do your best today
Niggas shooting in the hood
Hope I don't catch a stray
Somebody round da way died yesterday
Had to protect my lil sister
So I I always had my fist up
And even times I loss yea
I always kept my chin up
Just ask my big brother
Yea he was always with me
Momma told us stick together
Been that way since elementary
Uh
I remember this like yesterday
Uh
Momma crying
Cuz you left that day
Cuz you left that way
So suddenly
Pops I miss everyday
I guess that's just the son in me
Forgive me for my yesterdays
