Don't Forget About Me - August Alsina

I’ll never forget where I come from, I’m from the bottom

The shoes on my feet, I remember how I got 'em

When I didn’t have a car, I was on the bus stop

When I needed cash, I was selling crack rock

Didn’t have a lot but a nigga had enough

Had to keep it moving when the going got tough

It was bad y’all, lost some niggas on the way

It’s sad y’all, they couldn’t make it here today

Now I do it for my homies that’ll never get to do it

And I do it for the mamas tryna make it on they own

Yeah I do it for the thugs on the yard locked up

And I do it for New Orleans, couldn’t do it all alone

Believe it, while I’m outchea on the grind looking out for me

All my homies saying, Aug don’t forget about me

I’m just tryna shine and see what I can be

But I can hear them saying, Aug don’t forget about me

Don’t forget about the hard nights

Don’t forget about the downtown street lights

Don’t forget about your brother, don’t forget about his daughters

Don’t forget your little nieces growing up without a father

And son remember mama

Remember all the nights she had to put up with your drama

And for anybody else who’s saying don’t forget you

My advice is that you just be unforgettable

Now I do it for my homies that’ll never get to do it

And I do it for the mamas tryna make it on they own

Yeah I do it for the thugs on the yard locked up

And I do it for New Orleans, couldn’t do it all alone

Believe it, while I’m outchea on the grind looking out for me

All my homies saying, Aug don’t forget about me

I’m just tryna shine and see what I can be

But I can hear them saying, Aug don’t forget about me
