Despite westerners portraying africans as wild savages, hiding africans true history, to try and justify colonization and slavery, the truth always prevails.

'Can't Forget About You'
[Nas]
There comes a day in your life when you wanna kick back Straw hat on the porch when you old perhaps Wanna gather your thoughts, have a cold one Brag, to your grand kids about how life is golden So I will light a cigar in the corrid or of the crib Pictures on the wall of all the things that I did All the money and fame, 8 by 10's of the whole Rat Pack inside of a big frame Collidin with big names that could've made your career stop All that, and your man is still here and I'm still hot Wow, I need a moment y'all See I almost felt a tear drop
[Chorus]
When was the last time you heard a real anthem Nas, the millionaire, the mansion When was the last time you heard your boy Nas rhyme Never on schedule, but always on time
[Hook]These streets hold my deepest daysThis hood taught me golden ways Made me, truly this is what made me Break me, not a thing's gonna break me
[2x]
Ohh, I'm that history I'm that block I'm that lifestyle I'm that spotI'm that kid by the number spot That's my past that made me hot Here's my life long anthem Can't forget about you(Can't forget about, Can't forget about you)
[2x]
[Nas]Can't forget about the old school, Bam, Cas, Melle Mel, Flash Rocksteady spinnin on they back Can't forget when the first rap Grammy went to Jazzy, Fresh PrinceFat Boys broke up, rap hasn't been the same since So irregular, how it messed you upwhen Mr. T became a wrestler Can't forget about Jordan's retirementThe shot Robert Horry to win the game in the finals kid Some things are forever, some things are not It's the things we remember that gave the world shockThey stay in a place in your mind so snugLike who the person was with whom you first make love
[Chorus]
[Hook]
[Nas] Unforgettable, unsubmittable, I go by N nowJust one syllable, it's the end cause the game's tiredIt's the same vibe, Good Times had right after James diedThat's why the gangsta rhymers ain't inspired Heinous crimes help record sales more than creative lines And I don't wanna keep bringing up the greater timesBut I'm a dreamer nostalgic with the state of mind The past the past enough of it, aight then But nothing gives me chills like Douglas and Tyson Or Mike when his talk was live Or when he first did the moon walk on Motown 25
[Chorus]
[Hook]
[Nat King Cole sample]That's why, darling, it's incredibleThat someone so unforgettableThinks that I am unforgettable too
