They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.) (A Capella) Pete Rock & CL Smooth

[Intro: Pete Rock]
They reminisce, I reminisce
I reminisce, I reminisce
I reminisce, I reminisce
I reminisce, I reminisce, uh
I reminisce, I reminisce, yeah
I reminisce, I reminisce
I reminisce, I reminisce
I reminisce, I reminisce, come on

[Verse 1: C.L. Smooth, Pete Rock]
I reminisce for a spell, or shall I say think back (Yeah)
Twenty-two years ago to keep it on track (Uh-huh)
The birth of a child on thе eighth of October (It's like that)
A toast, but my granddaddy camе sober (Crazy phat)
Countin' all the fingers and the toes
Now I suppose you hope the little Black boy grows (Yeah)
Huh, eighteen years younger than my mama (Mama)
But I rarely got beatings 'cause the girl loved drama (Yeah)
In single parenthood, there I stood
By the time she was twenty-one, had another one (Yeah)
This one's a girl (What?), let's name her Pam
Same father as the first, but you don't give a damn (Alright)
Irresponsible, plain not-thinking (Yeah)
Papa said chill, but the brother keep winking (Uh-huh)
Still he won't down you or tear out your hide (Right)
On your side while the baby-maker slide (Slide)
But mama got wise to the game (Uh)
The youngest of five kids, hon', here it is (Yeah)
After ten years without no spouse (Yeah)
Mama's gettin' married and a house (Word?), listen
Positive over negative for the women and master (Uh-huh)
Mother queen's rising a chapter (Yeah)
Déjà vu, tell you what I'm gonna do (Do it)
When they reminisce over you, my God
