Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
|
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
|
Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore
|
Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
|
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
|
Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore
|
Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore
|
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
|
Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

|
Shit! It seems like yesterday I was only five
|
And my mom used to put out my clothes to get shavvin
|
These days I gotta get dressed myself
|
But let me go back in time, like Michael J myself
|
Well, my moms was a fox, she's still a fox
|
But my sister grew up, she took her spot as the fox
|
But it still was all good
|
My dad used to work all the time, he was rarely home
|
Sing this song
|
You see, uh I used just to watch cartoons
|
Back then my homies didn't have war wounds
|
You fast forward a little, older when I got
|
A lot of my homies see that they all got shot
|
But I remember the days, I remember the times
|
When we used to listen Eric B and Rakim for rhymes
|
And we used to shoot ball at the park everyday
|
But now things changed, I'm on my way, see
|
I'm on my way, see
|

|
Yeah, you see, I used to like snack time
|
And pre-kid I used to like when it was nap time
|
I used to get my mat out,
|
Chyeah I remember when we used to have to do math like one plus one equals two?
|
I remember when I learned my A, B, Cs
|
And my one, two, threes, it was just so eased
|
And my dad sat me down,
|
And he taught me about the birds and the bees
|
Then I used to bring home bees,
|
And then I started bringing home seeds
|
Even brought home dees and I saw the way
|
That my mom used to cry when I brought home the dees
|
So I got up on my GOB
|
And I used to shine like the sun
|
And I used to sip on Capris
|
I used to like the gummy bears
|
And I used to like the fruit gushes
|
And I used to get snowballs with rome
|
But fast forward I used to watch The Flintstones
|
But it's funny how time go and my homie long gone, but uh
|

(Verse)
|
Remember your first kiss
|
And your first girl that you really made love with?
|
That was the shit,
|
Remember how you used to need her fit for the dance?
|
You was running around trying to get something for the homecoming
|
Then you went to your prom
|
See that was just your time, that was your time to shine
|
Now everybody trying to work on their 10 years anniversaries
|
And half of your homies stay up in the hearse you see
|
Remember the "rest in peace" T-shirts and the second line
|
Hardy hard a lot of smiles when we was at that Marti Grass
|
Chicks was trying to get the bees
|
I remember back in the day
|
When you ain¡¯t had to worry about trying to worry about feeding yourself
|
Now you feed your seed and you're getting what you need
|
You can't get what you want
|
You used to have an allowance, you used to watch TV
|
Hot day during the summer man back in the days
