Gentleman - You Remember lyrics

(You remember) When we used
To write letters and
We never used to send text messages
(You remember) When there was
No Facebook, no Youtube
Never invade the colleges
(You remember) That technology's a
Good thing but
Many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great we
Can't forget the past

I'm passionate about this memory
I got this feeling
Question to the leaders and me
Ask them what them dealin'
They say that the world
Need a spiritual healin'
What about the youth that we leavin'?
Cyberspace take their mind only that
Them a believe in the elders get bitter so
Them stop from teachin'
Miles from the youth than how
You ever reach them
Tell me how you ever reach them

We remembering the past but if
There wasn't the past
Just remember that there wouldn't
Be no future
So I say it with all costs on your behalf
Just like how Christ died for the youths
Ya'
That's just a moment in time to mesmerize
Your mind you better acknowledge the truth
Ya' if your objective is crime
You keep being unkind
Then your own weapon will shoot ya'

(You remember) When we used
To write letters and
We never used to send text messages
(You remember) When there was no Facebook
No Youtube never invade the colleges
(You remember) That technology's a
Good thing but
Many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great we
Can't forget the past

Certain good things happen in the past
Now everything change, everybody move fast
(move fast) and the youths
Me see them act like them lost
Everybody wanna' be a rebel without a cause
You remember when we coulda' hence out
And a roll down south everybody
Coulda' roll all about
Now the tension so high like
It want touch the sky
'Dem a plan now, fi try get you out
Mannerism is depleted, the past is deleted
'Dem fi know life's more than a flaas
And the children used to
Listen to the teacher
Now the children 'dem a gwaan like 'dem
A the teacher of the class
'Dem used to say thank you and good morning
Now not even question a ask
But you can't blame the youth cause
They don't know the truth
There is no one to help
'dem stick to the task

(You remember) When we used
To write letters and
We never used to send text messages
(You remember) When there was no Facebook
No Youtube never invade the colleges
(You remember) That technology's a
Good thing but
Many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great we
Can't forget the past
