Atmosphere

Atmosphere - Don't Forget lyrics

It was still dark when Mark arrived

Maybe 6:45 in the morning time

In the tenth grade, we was tight friends

But neither of us had a driver's license

His mom was a flight attendant

And she'd leave town with a Cadillac unattended

So we used to get tempted,

That intense tendency to tend to what we wasn't meant to

We would skip out on class and shit

To go visit other schools, just tryin to act cool

And looking back I have to laugh at it

Cause all we did was burn up gas and flunk math fool

But still it was super ill,

I mean two teenagers in a new Seville

With 1987 in the tapedeck

That was a part of my life that I'll never forget

It went...

The soundtrack still runs through my head

I gotta keep every single step

As old as we get, we don't forget

We won't forget

We don't forget

And you can't tell me nothing about frontin

We wasn't even sixteen yet, come on jump in

Cruise control until we lose control

Max the low end out to let it bruise my soul

And god knows I should have been studying

So maybe I could grow up and be somebody

But I loved the looks that the girls shot at me from the bus stop

When we pulled up in that caddy

Good thing back then I had bad game

Otherwise there probably be a few with my last name

Better that my true love was rap

Now let it out on reverse, until the bad dub snaps

Felt so right, forgot we was wrong

Sittin at a stop light, singin along

When I look in my rearview now, what would I see

If I didn't have the music in my history, now give it to me

And we was just a couple of kids

It was right around the same time that nobody was beatin the biz

Had that, and I know you got soul

On a tape that I made, recorded em off a

I was addicted to the radio

Make my request, and wait for it

Holdin my finger on the pause button, like "now go"

I guess that was the original download

Rap videos and girls digits

A fifteen pack of blank cassettes for Christmas

Used to steal mom's change if it's easy to

We used to make up names for our graffiti crew

Used to talk about makin it big

And if we ever got rich, the way we would live

Hey Mark, we ain't there yet but

If you can hear my voice then turn your stereo up, like what...
