Deante' Hitchcock Reminders Lyrics

[Intro: Deante' Hitchcock]
I ain't always gon' get everything right
But know I'm always gon' love you
Ayy, hey, yeah, ayy

[Verse 1: Deante' Hitchcock]
Okay, every single day, I wake up and stare at my jit
He the reason I'm on my shit, he the reason I never quit
I tell him anything that he wanna be, he can be
And even though I doubt myself, I ain't never gon' let him see it
Reminiscing back to that stage of life when I was his age
'Fore I felt the feeling of being afraid
'Fore my mom told me truths like if I jump off this roof, I'ma diе
If she ain't love me, I would'vе thought I could fly
I hope my love don't clip his wings or chip his faith
Or hold him back from who he is, from going far, from being great
If I had one wish, that wish would be to keep you safe
But look at everything I learned from my scrapes, scars, and mistakes

[Refrain: Deante' Hitchcock]
Sometimes pain is what it takes
It make a lasting impression
A blessing sent in disguise to bring you back to the lesson when it slips out of your mind
Reminders from the divine
No matter how fast we run, we all run out of time
Ain't no shame in being afraid and still trying, hmm

[Chorus: Anna Field]
How bittersweet, sweet
Shine your light on me

[Verse 2: Childish Major]
Shit, and I be tired, but before I'm deadbeat, I'm dying
Staring at the sky, even daddy need a guide
Grammy off of "NISSAN ALTIMA," driving a Nissan Altima
Pushing your mama whip 'cause I need it, right?
Even when she sing off-key, she Queen Bey
And even when when she sing off-key, we be the hive
Who I wanna buy the land for, play in the league for, sport a wedding band for
Be in harmony, we a band, and you the biggest hit we ever had
Boxing glove and punching bag, this love is everlasting
Uh, I got the gnarliest daughter, no vocab or reasoning
To snack all day and then don't eat in the evening
Congested and snotty-nosed, I'm hearing your breathing in
Turn on the TV, Disney emblem
They stressed 'bout the screen time, but these is memories
I had a big imagination, daddy's a cartoon kid When life ain't looking like how the cartoons is
You could draw your own light where the darkness is
And always be reminded on who kid you is

[Refrain: Childish Major]
Sometimes pain is what it takes
It can make a lasting impression
A blessing sent in disguise to bring you back to the lesson when it slips out of your mind
Reminders from the divine
No matter how fast we run, we all run out of time
And ain't no shame in being afraid and still trying, fly

[Chorus: Anna Field]
How bittersweet, sweet
Shine your light on me

[Verse 3: 6LACK]
Before I wrote this verse, I had to bring a new one in
Second daughter, made of water, washing all my sins
Never will I ever disrespect the house I made
Every part of me I hated died along the way
Hey, that took some work, you know?
I'm minding business, never sweating what a person know
I told my oldest, "Don't you ever take it personal
Charge it to the game, write it off, next quarter, you'll see the change"
Syx, every shot you take in life, just know it's in your wrist
Line up what you want in life and treat it like a blitz
They could never block with malice, baby, that's eclipse
And they could never stop or challenge when your feet are set
And to my baby Blaze
They had to burn the city down for you to light the way
But from the ashes came so much magic, we prayed on it
With every play on words, wording the play
Know that this life is stage, this part is only a page
If you don't like it, rip it up
Every wound that you get, I'll be there to stitch it up
'Til I'm on the other side, scar tissue in a cut, best of luck, yeah

[Refrain: 6LACK]
Sometimes pain is what it takes
It can make a lasting impression
A blessing sent in disguise to bring you back to the lesson when it slips out of your mind
Reminders from the divine
No matter how fast we run, we all run out of time
Ain't no shame in being afraid and still trying

[Chorus: Anna Field]
How bittersweet, sweet
Shine your light on me

[Outro: Anna Field]
Shine your light on me
