[Mos Def]
   Yo
   Just when I think that I've forgot you
   I hear that thug that we used to rock to
   Just When I think I'm gettin' on without you
   Somebody Passed and asked me about you
  
   Was in the back of the cab the other day
   Swear to God I saw you walking passed the other way
   My heart rushed, my face flushed
   Tell the driver hit the breaks slow the pace up
   Wait up, It wasn't you
   Realised it's a mirage I was running to
   Damn, can the affects of Love and time
   Cause the mind to trick the eye?
   I wonder how you gettin' by
   And all the stars still in your eyes
   But you still just get the five
   You break the bank to spend the time
   I reminisce of shifting time, to when you was mine
  
   [Bilal]
   Years ago, in a mist of hallways and sliding doors
   Missing links of family very obscure
   Vision of you shine
   But only for a short time
   My mistake I didn't pick up on it till years down the
   line
  
   Here now as I (reminisce) reminisce, will I ever see
   your face again?
   (In-fect-ion)
   Baby as I lay back (reminisce) will I ever see your
   face again.
   (In-fect-ion)
   As I reminisce (fect-ion)
   as I reminisce (In-fect-ion)
  
   [Bilal] (Common)
   Hold still (uh)
   The devine has placed us
   In a small world (yes)
   And thankfully so (Thank God)
   Our paths cross once more
   And to whose surprise but mine
   Was 14th and 6th was the placed where we combine once
   more
   There at the front door of the cornor store you stood.
  
   (reminisce)
   I reminisce Infection
   (In-fect-ion)
   as I lay back (reminisce) will I ever see our face
   again
   (In-fect-ion)
   As I reminisce (In-fect-ion)
   As I reminisce (In-fect-ion)
  
   A happy story always ends
   As it starts
   But with few exceptions involved
   We became an item
   (Me For You)
   Me for you and
   (You For Me)
   You for me
   (Through Good Times and Bad Times)
   Good times
   (Sickness And Health)
   Sickness and health
   (Broke ass and richness)
   Broke ass, and richness, baby we made it work
  
   [Common]
   Yes Sir
   Yo I reminisce over this chick
   Colder than a soda
   Princess a soldier
   Raised in Islamic culture
   Sexy as the girl on the Jamaica poster
   Men are over seas where there really don't be no
   sistas
   Brought her on stage as Bilal sang "Soul Sista"
   In body parts the blood was thicker
   Sweet only tryna make sure it ain't the liquor
   She was with a nigga come to find out
   She and Sista backstage, conversation kissed her
   Made me forget to remember that I pimp the dime
   Put the pimpin' aside I see Kenya in her eye
   Our connection lies in a life before
   For us to meet again was devine law
   So I can't describe how deep I dug her
   Now only in memory can I hug her
   I reminisce y'all
  
   Oh my God
