In “Remember,” Latto looks back from hard-won success at everyone who dismissed her, savoring the distance between then and now. Growing up fast meant trading childhood for work, guided by her parents’ warnings and grounded by family loss that still demands strength. The repeated promise that she would never amount to anything becomes the fuel for her pride, flipped into a relaxed confidence with her feet up. The song lands as a defiant, grateful exhale after years of proving the doubters wrong.
Remember Lyrics by Latto
Latto!
Yeah, what’s up?
Think it’s time to let them know!
Aight, cool!
Mm, okay
Hey miss, say man, what’s going on witchu?
Stay down for the come up
Been a long time, lot of work: blood, sweat, and tears
To get to where I’m at right now
I remember when they said I wouldn’t be nothin’
Boy were they wrong
Haha!
Yeah!
I remember, I remember
I remember
Latto let ’em know
I remember when they said I wouldn’t be nothin’
Now I’m sitting at the top and I don’t see you
Now I’m laid back, chilling with my feet up
Still remember when you said I wouldn’t be nothin’
I remember, I remember, yeah
I remember, I remember, yeah
I remember, I remember, oh, yes, I do
I remember, I remember, oh, yes, I do
I ain’t really have a childhood
Doing this had to grow up fast
Lil’ girl with a grown up bag
Get the TV, and when up from that
I thank my dad
Huh, lotta cash, gotta pray
I’m too real for this kid to fake away
Block the devil, lead the way
I turned down the deal, the very next day
Huh, it all happened for a reason
And revenge don’t really make you even
This industry will turn you cold, you gotta be prepared for all seasons
Huh, Clayco raised me first point south
Went to Kemp, then Rex Middle
Then Love Joy, you can pull up on me at the BP, nah for real
I remember when they said I wouldn’t be nothin’
Now I’m sitting at the top and I don’t see you
Now I’m laid back, chilling with my feet up
Still remember when you said I wouldn’t be nothin’
I remember, I remember, yeah
I remember, I remember, yeah
I remember, I remember, oh, yes, I do
I remember, I remember, oh, yes, I do
Momma told me, just stay down
Now I’m like look momma look
Didn’t let the fame get in to my head
I kept my head in them books
It’s been a whole four years (Yeah)
Since my brother got took
But i can’t let ’em see me sweat
Gotta hold it down for lil’ Brooke
Huh, now I’m way way up
But I’m still ten toes down
I bumped my head a couple times, had to learn to watch the company I keep around
Daddy told me not to mess with no clowns
Got my heart broken but look at me now
They took my sister, I had to spazz out
Came along way from that promise to now
I remember when they said I wouldn’t be nothin’
Now I’m sitting at the top and I don’t see you
Now I’m laid back, chilling with my feet up
Still remember when you said I wouldn’t be nothin’
I remember, I remember, yeah
I remember, I remember, yeah
I remember, I remember, oh, yes, I do
I remember, I remember, oh, yes, I do
Latto let ’em know!
Latto let ’em know!
