| Rock with me through the waves on the TV screen
|
| Flash back the dream sequence yo whatever it means
|
| Escape from the present time date and mindstate
|
| Rewind to a clean slate and a full plate
|
| 106th where they maintain the wall of fame
|
| Middle School showed me everything before was lame
|
| Girls and basketball, my approach was the same
|
| Couldn’t score had no game but had fun playing
|
| Picture being the 12th man on championship teams
|
| From Bucks Tournament down to Asphalt Greens
|
| In between Rufford Towers and Metro North
|
| Struggling without hardships to not go soft
|
| Found what I really wanted but I didn’t need
|
| I realized it galvanized my identity
|
| It makes strangers out of old friends and enemies
|
| But gave them brand new reasons to remember me
|
| Especially when…
|
| The last sunshine is about to fade
|
| The leaves in the trees turn red and sway
|
| Telling me it’s almost yesterday
|
| I just wanna tell you I miss you
|
| Hope and wish you would stay for a little while
|
| It’s dark and I can’t even see you smile
|
| A cold old man that was once a child
|
| I just want to tell you I miss you
|
| I miss those days we would skate from Hawthorne to Ingle
|
| Wood under my feet remember every single crack
|
| In the concrete makes my neck tingle in fact
|
| This track gotta a nigga thinking way back in time
|
| Way before I made a dime out of writing a rhyme
|
| Go to Magic Mountain and cut in all the lines
|
| Getting numbers let’s see who got the most and find
|
| It wasn’t me but the brother named B and we
|
| Would love to sneak in movies for free
|
| Watching Goonies ducking low in our seats
|
| Then hit the streets on our skateboards again the Summer never ended
|
| A skin hit the wind the young and the splendid
|
| 7−11 heavenly parking lot laughs in the night
|
| Grinning and spending time with the bitty that I liked, slash loved
|
| Hot chocolate, Denny’s in the twilight buzz
|
| Waiting for your train to arrive cause
|
| The last sunshine is about to fade
|
| The leaves in the trees turn red and sway
|
| Telling me it’s almost yesterday
|
| I just wanna tell you I miss you
|
| Hope and wish you would stay for a little while
|
| It’s dark and I can’t even see you smile
|
| A cold old man that was once a child
|
| I just want to tell you I miss you
|
| Shots rang out in the night we stood still
|
| Found out it was just a car then chilled
|
| Hated going to the liquor store for some milk
|
| Cause the Bloods in '88 stayed hot like grills
|
| I miss the simple and plain, my very first kiss
|
| Stained with pangs I reminisce about my innocence changed
|
| On my first tour gazing out my window in the rain
|
| Sparked a flame and my heart was the propane
|
| I went from so called friends calling me Al like Paul Simon
|
| To fighting with fools for mispronouncing my name
|
| To making my own niche in this rap thing
|
| To thinking that this is something that’s never gonna change
|
| Simultaneous riding the chain riding the train
|
| Wondering when I’m gonna stay above ground for a change
|
| Not enough knowing that I’m never gonna beg for a change
|
| Doing my thing I need more to just maintain or stay the same when…
|
| The last sunshine is about to fade
|
| The leaves in the trees turn red and sway
|
| Telling me it’s almost yesterday
|
| I just wanna tell you I miss you
|
| Hope and wish you would stay for a little while
|
| It’s dark and I can’t even see you smile
|
| A cold old man that was once a child
|
| I just want to tell you I miss you
|
| I just want to tell you I miss you
|
| I just want to tell you… |
