Remember


Take a breath and remember the 

Take one and go back

Remember the day gone past

The days where life was hardly any worries

Or the days where life is hard

Remember the nights cuddled in a bed 

Or the long nights at work

Remember the place you came from

Wither that be Harlem

Or Compton 

Or London

Or Nigeria 

Or China

Remember the place you once called home

Remember the place you couldn't wait to leave

Remeber the days where life was a wonder 

And luck was on your side

Remember the days where everything went wrong 

And nothing you did was right

All those moments lead you here

Whether you want to be here or not

This place will one day be a memory

And at another time 

You will look back

And Remember
