What up y'all this is one of the most personal rhymes I ever wrote a few weeks ago, enjoy, feedback appreciated! :thumb:

”She'll Remember”(“Now It's Too late”)

Written By Big Ted

Chorus:

She'll remember

I knew she would

She thought that going with him was better

She had me all misunderstood

She does remember

And now she wants to come and take all my goods

But one thing she didn't remember

Is that I know her fate would bring back the hate

I don't need that, so I leave her behind in the 'hood

I always been a real cat

It's too late to remember

'Cause I don't need that kind of drama in my life 'cause I've been doing better

Without her

Verse One:

I remember those times as a young man

There was a lot of fun I had

Hanging out at the school dances

Playing the attack real cool and I wanted a chance

But I didn't realise that you had another plan

You started to act all grown up but you weren't a woman

But then you ended up getting pregnant from another dumb youngeon

Before you got out of junior high

That had me just buggin'

You were actin' out of your mind

'Cause then you moved and I never heard from you again

And 'till this day I wonder why

Oh my word, you were the 1st girl I seriously had a crush on but you never knew it

You ignored when I tried to prove it

Well times have changed since that was before 2000

And as I've gotten older I met other girls but they were also actin' foul

Now that I'm on top of my game, I see you're tryin' to come around

Maybe if you were able to apply your brain, things for me and u might've worked out

Waiting longer has proved that I'm mature

Now you're probably wishing that I was in your life for sure

As a young girl having a child was something that has left you hurt

'Cause forgetting about your friend has proved that you were immature

The reason why I consider you a fool is from acting older than what you were

I wish your parents would've took a moment to raise your ass better

I can no longer hold it in

Since you weren't no good friend

You're just tryin' more gold diggin'

But you're comin' up empty

For showin' no love for Teddy

In the late '90s

You neer came around the way to find me

You decided to start a lame life without me

But now since I'm chargin' to flame mics, suddenly you're comin' around me

After almost a decade

Do you really think I'd want you to share my cake?

[Repeat Chorus]

Verse Two:

The years move on, but some things never get old

When it comes to meetin' golddiggers that want your doe

Now I never thought of you as a hoe

And I still don't, but when it comes to leavin' me alone when I was broke

That type of label would show

And I put this on record to be continually on the flow

Of how I know that comin' up with my thoughts will give me success

Because in a battle that how a got strong

Hip-hop battles represent life's battles, I try not to stay in the same position too long

After doing that I would feel lost

By takin' things that I vision all in one charge

It's better when I take time and patience, that's something I'm working on

But it always felt like you were ignoring

Me like that other did and it made me wonder if I was doing something wrong

Or I would get the impression that you thought I was boring

I didn't understand what was it that you'd want?

To hear from me so that you'd feel amusement

Sometimes I notice how that theones who front are the ones who get ahead

Rather than the intelligent ones, I still don't get it

I didn't seem to get love from you until I dropped a hit disc

I thought before then you wanted love

And someone that'll give you respect

Rather than just someone that could buy you over with a a check

I wonder now if you'd treat me nice now 'cause I'm making large sums

You're comin' after me like a chickenhead

By acting like I'm gonna throw you back some bucks

And back then I felt dumb

By sayin' that you weren't like the rest of them

'Cause if you really care for someone

You'd care about that person whether they're poor or rich

One day you'll realise that it ain't love

When you're after the money and don't care about the person

That thought will leave you shivering cold on the curb

'Cause there are better women than you in this world

You're another immature girl

Hook:

I could see the way it gets

Like Chuck D already said

“It's plain to see how you're a sophisticated bitch”

You used to treat me foul and penetrate the diss

Now you wanna lay in my bed

And then take my chips

There ain't no way I'm going for this

Verse Three:

Hey now, like I said we all know it gets

When I'm winning the bouts y'all come out again

To claim to the crowd how we're friends

But how 'bout when I didn't surround attention?

I couldn't see you then

And I needed advice

I've been learning on my own how to succeed in life

So don't even take credit when you didn't even apply

Yourself towards supplying words of wisdom to my mind

The influence was concerned withing the rhythm of my vibe

I found that peace in my soul that was legit to apply

I realise how the hating exists all the time

And it doesn't ride the emotion that persists when I rhyme

This will exist beyond the flwing that kicks in 2005 or even 2025

'Cause this isn't somethin' that'll go out of track like those chicks I had who just make love and then hide

In other words I'm never going out of style

Just to make you remember that I don't make trends

I rather flow to rake ends

Since I gather the motion this game spins

You have to master some emotion to make decisions

I can penetrate the show when the play begins

So much hate thrown my way again

I thought yesterday that you were my main circuit

But then you'd break on me to look like a lame circus

Another round's gone

Another one I couldn't count on

Needin' a moment so I could pound strong

Seein' that i was going that route was wrong

I learn to deal with the consequences

Even when you appeal of questioning

Keepin' it real will keep this thought persisting

So baby, just keep on wishing

[Repeat Chorus]

Thanks for the feedback, I could've rhymed it a lil' better but I wasn't really that concerned with the rhyme structure there I just wanted to get my point across and build a strong song what's the point in having multiple syllables if the song doesn't mean anything? I'll record this in due time like in due time I'll find my soul mate, this would probably be one of the 1st songs I'd record, I think it's that good, every word in that song I wrote came straight from my heart. That Chuck D line was used in the '87 PE song called "Sophisticated Bitch" off their debut album "Yo! Bum Rush The Show", that song has a lil' different concept, it refers to girls that sleep around with rich guys but then turn around to act all sweet and innocent, it still happens today.

Basically in that song I sum up my experiences in my life, my father gives me a lot of advice when it comes to the opposite sex, he basically tells me that I should just focus on my talent and build up my knowledge and gradually I'll find the one for me, love shouldn't be forced. I see the reason why it's so hard to find love is from peeps actin' harder than they really are, this pimp and hoe game that men and women play is a major reason why, going around like this doesn't help. I think we need to take hip-hop back to the soul point of view where the songs we make have impact on people's lives rather than making songs so pointless just to have sales.
