    Yeah yo yo what time the plane leavin'?
    Ahhh alright, I'll see you at the airport
    R-r-r-r-rock on

    Memories don't live like people do
    They always remember you
    Whether things are good or bad
    It's just the memories
    Memories don't live like people do-o
    Baby, don't forget me
    I'm a travellin' man, movin' through places
    Space and time, gotta lotta things I
    Got to do, God willin' I'm comin'
    Back to you, my baby boo
    I'm a travellin' man movin' through places
    Space and time (space and time), gotta lotta things I
    Got to do, but God willin' I'm comin'
    Back to you, baby boo
    I'm leavin'

    Well, go 'head and leave
    The call heard 'round the world from the wives of MC's
    These cats is payin' more than half a pound, my garment bag I snatch it down
    Ain't got the state but we could prolly run a blacker town
    Scenarios like this is tear jerkers
    For the modern MC, i.e. the blue collar worker
    Cause this thing called rhymin' no different from coal minin'
    We both on assignment to unearth the diamond
    When you start climbin' and them eyes start shinin'
    You be strugglin' and strivin' and they think you prime-timin'
    Maintain' and keep silent, make note, an observation
    This confrontation, this is the daily operation
    My concentration, stay focused on my recitation
    'Bout to reach my destination with no pause or hesitation
    Baby make the preparation cause this ain't no recreation
    This is Pro Ball! And we lettin' you know y'all
    At the show y'all, doin' this for dough y'all
    Get the phone call and I'm ready to blow y'all
    'Bout to go y'all, been a pleasure to know y'all
    And I'm lettin' you know that

    Memories don't live like people do
    They always remember you
    Whether things are good or bad
    It's just the memories
    Memories don't live like people do-o
    Baby, don't forget me
    I'm a travellin' man, movin' through places
    Space and time, gotta lotta of things I
    Got to do, God willin' I'm comin'
    Back to you, my baby boo
    I'm a travellin' man, movin' through places
    Space and time (space and tiiiime), gotta lotta things I
    Got to do, but insh'Allah
    I'm comin' back to you, baby boo
    I'm leaving

    But God willing I'll be back home
    To drop these heavy ass bags up off my backbone
    Around the world with a catalog of rap songs
    My baby girl is walking, been away for that long
    But no you haven't well least that's how it seem to me
    My home town is like a whole different scenery
    The old timers on the stoop leaning leisurely
    The new jacks up in the park smoking greenery
    Easily taken for granted when you up in it
    But it's sweet scented when you been down for a minute
    Move around city limits, break it down with the vintage
    The innovative classical B-Boy image
    Collect the winnings cause that's the reason that we came here
    This thing is not a game here, the fortune not the fame here
    From New York to the Cakalaks, Cali in the Cadillacs
    Chicago know we innovate, infiltrate Virginia State
    DC make me stimulate, Philly know we penetrate
    Georgia make us generate, let's set a date to get the papes
    They celebrate to my jams in foreign lands
    Even your mans in Japan know who I am
    Minasan, like everybody out in Nippon
    Say ichiban, may God have well where you're getting from
    Phenomenon, excuse me that's a phone call
    It's the show y'all, tryin' to get this dough y'all
    'Bout to blow y'all, been a pleasure to know y'all
    And I'm letting you know that

    Memories don't live like people do
    They always remember you
    Whether things are good or bad
    It's just the memories
    Memories don't live like people do-o
    Baby, don't forget me
    I'm a travellin' man, movin' through places
    Space and time, gotta lotta things I
    Got to do, but insh'Allah
    I'm comin' back to you, baby boo
    I'm a travellin' man, movin' through places
    Space and time (space and tiiiime), gotta lotta things I
    Got to do, but God willin' I'm comin'
    Back to you, back to you

    I'm leavin'!
    I'll be back to you
    I'm leavin'!
    I'll be back to you

    All over the world we go
    DC all over the world we go
    VA all over the world we go
    The Cakalaks all over the world we go
    London all over the world we go
    Japan we go over the world we go
    Paris we go over the world we go
