(Teddy Pendergrass' «Turn off the lights» starts) |
Back In the days when I was young |
Im not a kid anymore but somedays |
I Sit and wish I was A Kid Again |
Back In the days… |
Royce Da 5 9 |
(Verse I) |
Back in the days when I was just a little niggero |
I looked up to my bigger bro begged if I could kick it |
So when he when out with girls I could go taggin along naggin |
If she had a sis I could mack a baby hoodrat |
Yall remember way back then when it was 1985 all the way live |
I think I was about ten |
One of those happy little niggas singin the blues |
That be always tryna bag with the shag and karate shoes |
Sayin yo momma black his momma this his momma that |
Then he’d get mad and wanna scrap we’d stay mad about |
10 minutes then its like back on the bike to play Hide and Go Get It |
With the younger hoes by the bungalos then switch to playin ding dong ditch |
When that gets old and too cold to hack it |
Throw on a bomber jacket |
You could tell the ballas 'cause they bailed wearin Gazelles |
If they really had money raised we sportin new K’s |
And all the girls had they turkish link |
If it broke then they made earrings too |
Like they meant to do it |
But sometimes I still sit and reminiese and |
Think about the years I was raised back in the days |
(Royce and Others over chorus) (3x) |
(Royce) |
And everybody say. |
(Others) |
I remember way back when |
(Variations) |
(Royce) |
What? |
(Others) |
Back in the days |
(Royce) |
When? |
(Others) |
Back in the days |
(Verse II) |
Im still back in the days but now the year is 87, 88 thats |
When my crew and I were in Jr. High in 7th grade I hated school |
(Wished it had blown up) |
No doubt I couldn’t wait to get out |
(And be a grown up) |
But let me finish this reminiscin and tellin |
Bout when girls was bailin tight courderoys like |
For the boys basket weaves, Nike, Cortez, and Footsie Socks |
And eatin pickles with Toosie Pops and it dont stop |
Im glad 'cause when J.J. |
fad that Supersonic |
It was kinda like a sport, to wear biker shorts |
Or, to wear jeans and it seemed like the masses |
Of hoochies had Poison airbrushed on they asses |
Dudes had on Nike suits and the Pumas with the fat laces |
'cause it was either that or K-Swiss |
I miss those days and so I pout like a grown jerk |
Wishin all I had to do now was finish homework |
Its true you dont real-a-lize really what you got til its gone |
And Im not gonna sing anotha sad song |
But sometimes I do sit and reminisce then |
Think about the years I was raised |
Back In The Day |
(The variations w/ royce and others)(2x) |
(Verse III) |
Well, its the niggero I figga that now Im all grown up |
Be’cause Im 18 years old and guess you could say Im holdin down |
A steady job, true steady mobbin, you steady bobbin your head |
And Im paid so I got it made but |
Didn’t always have clout useta live in South |
Central L.A. thats where I stayed and figured a way out |
I gave it all I had so for what its worth |
I went from rags to riches which is a drag but now Im first |
So (??? is on our way up) |
Yup, we said that we was gonna make it since a kid |
And we finally did but |
Sometimes I still sit and reminisce then |
Think about the years I was raised |
Back in the days |
(Chorus With Variations) |
