[Intro] [spoken] This right here. Just a little freestyle. See, sometimes you kind of get mixed up in your feelings a little bit, so this right here is going to be short. No type of format. [Verse 1] [breathy vocals] Mmm, memories [vocal run] Are in the corners of my mind [melismatic finish] All of those memories Of how things used to be [Verse 2] [increased vocal power] Coming up as a child I've learned to stay in my place There were days when I felt alone But those days Mama held me close [Chorus] [resonant chest voice] See memories My daddy used to hold me close [vocal slide] He would protect me And tell me things and things that I should not do or go [Outro] [falsetto] Memories [vocal run] In the corners of my mind Those were those special moments That I will always [sustained note] Always hold [vocal trill] Close
