[Mary J. Blige - Reflections I Remember lyrics]
I remember, I remember
I remember, I remember
I remember, I remember i remember
Back before the record deal and the cars
And the cribs and the way
That things took off
I was signing at Lucy's on 1-25th
Just tryin' my best to get on
Back when me and Puff and BIG
Was kids and I knew Jodeci
I was young and tough and fresh in
Love and it was all a dream
Signing a contract, no guiding light
Just hopin' I i can get out the projects
And get my family right cause
They were my life
In Red Zones, in Bentley's, you can catch me
Tryna do me i was jaded on the block
I coulda faded on the block
But, I made it off the block and I
I remember
Back when I didn't know which way to feel
I remember
Back when pain was all I had to give
The reflections of my life
I see the lessons that I've learned
And now I know
Heartbreak don't exist when it's been
Torn apart by love
I use to throw a fit, I use to shed a doubt
And blame it on a man but that was Mary than
And this is Mary now, you gotta understand
It's about how we respect ourselves
And the men have no
Control of our self-esteem
And when we see that then we can let go, oh
Now I made some mistakes
I lost some friends along the way
But, I don't carry it cause it
Made me a better chick
It's my life and I know that
There's more for me to see (So much more)
I may not be what I'm suppose to
But, I can tell you right now
I ain't what I use to be
(I remember) I remember when I didn't
Know which way to live
(I remember) I remember when pain was
All I had to give
The reflections of my life
I see the lessons that I've learned
And now I know
Heartbreak don't exist when it's been
Torn apart by love (I remember)
I remember, I remember
(I remember) I remember, I remember
The reflections of my life
I see the lessons that I've learned
And now I know, heartbreak don't exist
When it's been torn apart by love, by love
(I remember)
Don't exist no more
(I remember) But, I remember, I remember
(I remember) I remember, I remember
(I remember) I remember
I remember
I remember, I remember
I remember, I remember i remember
Back before the record deal and the cars
And the cribs and the way
That things took off
I was signing at Lucy's on 1-25th
Just tryin' my best to get on
Back when me and Puff and BIG
Was kids and I knew Jodeci
I was young and tough and fresh in
Love and it was all a dream
Signing a contract, no guiding light
Just hopin' I i can get out the projects
And get my family right cause
They were my life
In Red Zones, in Bentley's, you can catch me
Tryna do me i was jaded on the block
I coulda faded on the block
But, I made it off the block and I
I remember
Back when I didn't know which way to feel
I remember
Back when pain was all I had to give
The reflections of my life
I see the lessons that I've learned
And now I know
Heartbreak don't exist when it's been
Torn apart by love
I use to throw a fit, I use to shed a doubt
And blame it on a man but that was Mary than

Don't exist no more
