Lyrics The Sound of a Memory - People Under The Stairs

The Sound of a Memory

It’s the sound of the memory
(The sound of the memory of many living people)
It’s the sound of the memory
(The sound of the memory of many living people)
It’s the sound of the memory
(The sound of the memory of many living people)
It’s the sound of the memory
(The sound of the memory of many living people)
It’s the s-
Lookin' through the greats
We see what we made
All around the world
Where P got played
Good and bad
Chris and Mike
We bumpin' while you and your lady havin' a fight
That’s right, it happens, but the brothers keep rappin'
Losin' all the legends, man it keep happenin'
I miss the homie Rick
I miss my Uncle Lewis
He used to get the LA Times, Huey Lewis
I do this for the people
Who got no voice
I do this for the people
Who got no choice
Summer, my mojo
I’m slow-mo
I’m Friday night, raw
On the thirteenth
They say the cousin of death is sleep
That’s why me and the homie keep beats in the street
Dreams not memes, y’all
Keep followin'
Stay out your feelings, people
No wallowin'
It’s the sound of the memory
(The sound of the memory of many living people)
It’s the sound of the memory
(The sound of the memory of many living people)
It’s the s-
After we lost Pat
It was hard to imagine movin' on
To the studio, tryin' to make a new song
Knowin' he’d never hear it
Sayin' he’s here in spirit
Didn’t help at all, I needed it, that alcohol
Had to corrupt grief
Had to learn to accept
Celebrate the good times, that was the next step
Because you gotta believe, even though people are gone
That they loved you and wanted you to continue on
I carry these memories and let 'em stack to my last day
When my physical’s reduced to something stuck in an ashtray
So let it burn, empty out the urn, let me float away
The memories of better days will carry your soul away
Huh, I pour out a little bit of beer
Tell your people’s that you love them while they all still here
Show your people that you love them while they all still here
Man, tell your people that love them while they still can hear
The sound
Of the memory
Sound, of the memory
Sound, of the memory
Sound, of the memory of many living people in the place to be
It’s the sound of the memory
(The sound of the memory of many living people)
It’s the s-
