Gentleman - You Remember

(You remember) When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(You remember) When there was no Facebook
No YouTube, never invade the colleges
(You remember) That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great, you can't forget the past, no

I'm passionate about this memory, I got this feeling
Question to the leaders, so me ask dem what dem dealing
See seh that the world need a spiritual healing
What about the youths that we leaving
Cyberspace take weh dem mind, only that dem a believing
The elders get bitter, so dem stop from teaching
Miles from the youth, then how you ago reach him
Tell me how you ago reach him
We remembering the past, but if there wasn't no past
Just remember seh there wouldn't be no future
So I say it with all costs, on your behalf
Just like how Christ died fi the youths ya
It's just a moment in time, to mesmerise your mind
You better acknowledge the truth ya
If your objective is crime, you keep being unkind
Then your own weapon will shoot ya

(You remember) When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(You remember) When there was no Facebook
No YouTube, never invade the colleges
(You remember) That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great, you can't forget the past, np

Certain good things happen in the past
Now everything change, everybody move fast
And the youths me see dem act like dem lost
Everybody wanna be a rebel without a cause
(You remember) When we coulda hence out
And a roll down south everybody coulda roll all about
Now the tension so high, like it want touch the sky
Dem a plan now fi try get you out
Mannerism is (depleted), the past is (deleted)
Dem fi know life's more than a flaas
And the children used to listen to the teacher
Now the children dem a gwaan like dem a the teacher of the class
Dem used to say thank you and good morning
Now not even question a ask
But you can't blame the youth
Cah they don't know the truth
There is no one to help dem stick to the task

(You remember) When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(You remember) When there was no Facebook
No YouTube, never invade the colleges
(You remember) That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great, you can't forget the past

(Can you remember) When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(Do you remember) When there was no Facebook
No YouTube, never invade the colleges
(You remember) That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great, you can't forget the past, no

(Remember, remember) ooh.. yeah
(You remember) Can you remember?
(Do you, remember)

(You remember) When we used to write letters
And we never used to send text messages
(Do you remember) When there was no Facebook
No YouTube, never invade the colleges
(Can you remember) That technology's a good thing
But many misuse it and cause peer damages
The future is so great, you can't forget the past
