Bilal F- Common Mos Def Reminisce Lyrics

Reminisce Lyrics

[Mos Def]

 Yo

 Just when I think that I've forgot you

 I hear that thug that we used to rock to

 Just When I think I'm gettin' on without you

 Somebody Passed and asked me about you

 

 Was in the back of the cab the other day

 Swear to God I saw you walking passed the other way

 My heart rushed, my face flushed

 Tell the driver hit the breaks slow the pace up

 Wait up, It wasn't you

 Realised it's a mirage I was running to

 Damn, can the affects of Love and time

 Cause the mind to trick the eye?

 I wonder how you gettin' by

 And all the stars still in your eyes

 But you still just get the five

 You break the bank to spend the time

 I reminisce of shifting time, to when you was mine

 

 [Bilal]

 Years ago, in a mist of hallways and sliding doors

 Missing links of family very obscure

 Vision of you shine

 But only for a short time

 My mistake I didn't pick up on it till years down the

 line

 

 Here now as I (reminisce) reminisce, will I ever see

 your face again?

 (In-fect-ion)

 Baby as I lay back (reminisce) will I ever see your

 face again.

 (In-fect-ion)

 As I reminisce (fect-ion)

 as I reminisce (In-fect-ion)

 

 [Bilal] (Common)

 Hold still (uh)

 The devine has placed us

 In a small world (yes)

 And thankfully so (Thank God)

 Our paths cross once more

 And to whose surprise but mine

 Was 14th and 6th was the placed where we combine once

 more

 There at the front door of the cornor store you stood.

 

 (reminisce)

 I reminisce Infection

 (In-fect-ion)

 as I lay back (reminisce) will I ever see our face

 again

 (In-fect-ion)

 As I reminisce (In-fect-ion)

 As I reminisce (In-fect-ion)

 

 A happy story always ends

 As it starts

 But with few exceptions involved

 We became an item

 (Me For You)

 Me for you and

 (You For Me)

 You for me

 (Through Good Times and Bad Times)

 Good times

 (Sickness And Health)

 Sickness and health

 (Broke ass and richness)

 Broke ass, and richness, baby we made it work

 

 [Common]

 Yes Sir

 Yo I reminisce over this chick

 Colder than a soda

 Princess a soldier

 Raised in Islamic culture

 Sexy as the girl on the Jamaica poster

 Men are over seas where there really don't be no

 sistas

 Brought her on stage as Bilal sang "Soul Sista"

 In body parts the blood was thicker

 Sweet only tryna make sure it ain't the liquor

 She was with a nigga come to find out

 She and Sista backstage, conversation kissed her

 Made me forget to remember that I pimp the dime

 Put the pimpin' aside I see Kenya in her eye

 Our connection lies in a life before

 For us to meet again was devine law

 So I can't describe how deep I dug her

 Now only in memory can I hug her

 I reminisce y'all

 

 Oh my God
