Lyrics
0:02Yo you know what we got to do man
0:04We need to get a whole CD
0:06Get a collection of all the music
0:08And everything we've ever done
0:15(Bringing back sweet memories)
0:20(Bringing back sweet memories)
0:25(Bringing back sweet memories)
0:32(Sweet memories)
0:33Life living in Flat bush and going to house parties
0:35Red lights bumping life is what you make it
0:37Then sorry
0:38In my lifetime ain't done too many things
0:40Better than watching your first son
0:41Put his sentences together
0:43Yo it kinda make me think of way back when
0:45I was the portrait of the artist as a young man
0:48All them teenage dreams of rapping writing rhymes on napkins
0:51Was really visualization
0:52Making this sh*t actually happen
0:53It's like something come through me
0:55That truly just consume me
0:56Speaking through
0:57The voices of the spirits speaking to me
0:58I think back in the day
1:00I absorbed everything like a sponge
1:01Took a plunge into my past to share with my son
1:05(Sweet memories)
1:08(Bringing back sweet memories)
1:14(Bringing back sweet memories)
1:15(Sweet memories)
1:16Like thoughts out the back of
1:17My mind going back in some time
1:18Like when you used to cut
1:19And had to go to the back of the line
1:21Look back and you find tracks
1:22That make you relax and recline
1:23Now cats rap about packing a nine when they lacking divine
1:26Inspiration running out of topics of conversation
1:28Well I drop it in the pocket because rock is my occupation
1:31I do it remarkably
1:32Spark up a leaf and possibly you could follow me
1:35Tap into your chi
1:36Utilize your spiritual faculty a
1:38Ccurately use your memory
1:39To help you see clearly then get back to me
1:42Actually nothing's new under the sun
1:43So when life be stressing me my remedy is
1:45(Bringing back sweet memories)
1:47Like the faces that are woven in
1:49The fabric of my consciousness
1:50From cities where making 21's a big accomplishment
1:53Like when my people understood their prominence
1:55And my past life visions of the continent
1:57Like the first time I saw KRS live rockin' it
2:00I heard Resurrection by Common Sense
2:02Dominant in my psyche
2:04I chose my direction like Spike Lee
2:06To speak my life through mics and I never take it lightly
2:09It might be something you did to
2:11Bring you down when you were high
2:12But that karma's a b**ch you steady asking God why
2:14Like when my parents first split up yo I was illin'
2:17Seems like some years
2:17They was together for the sake of the children
2:19And I love them for that I don't know if they saw that
2:22So I'ma say it and convey it when the world play it
2:25I'ma say it and convey it when the world play it
2:27I'ma say it and convey it when the world play it
2:34(Bringing back sweet memories sweet memories)
2:45(Bringing back sweet memories)
2:50(Bringing back)
2:52Like black is beautiful names from the seventies
2:54Let me tap into your energy
2:56Fields of dreams become my property
2:58When I reach my destiny
2:59Like a prophecy especially when I 'm
3:01(Bringing back sweet memories)
3:02I got deep into my mind see I got a treasury
3:05That float through my head like a sweet melody
3:07What you telling me
3:08Reflection is a collection of memories
3:09Definitely this is how hip hop was meant to be
3:13Eventually I knew I'd run into Hi-Teknology
3:16It was only a matter of time like centuries
3:18Check the recipe or technique to
3:19How it sound so sweet
3:21I freak with word power my man speak with beats
3:23If I could make it in New York
3:25I figured anywhere I'd make it
3:26Came to Cincinnati linked with Mood and we did Sacred
3:29Hi-Tek beats became my favorite
3:30Hussle on the Side was the cut
3:32We started to put songs together like what
3:34Traveled the world
3:35Came back to the crib and hit the motherland
3:37Yeah this year we put in work and got some other plans
3:40In fact that's where I'll take the fam
3:41When the Reflection joint is done
3:42By the time you hear this
3:43I'll be basking in African sun like wow
3:48Yes we made it we here
