I remember back in the day when we was just kids
Living life and loving it
Not really tripping on the seriousness
But now we got responsibilities
Yeah we got this obligation
And ain't it crazy how it all has changed up
Right in front of our faces
I remember back when it was peanut butter and jelly
Back when all my best friends had their secrets to tell me
These days we been running round
With a lot of weight up on our shoulders tryna bring us down
I got, 2 dollars and I made em from my 2 cents
Things change lost some family and a few friends
Life will throw you curve balls
Knock em out of the park
Remember right before the sun come up is the deepest dark
Everyday's a stroke of the paintbrush
Of a bigger picture
Mural of your soul
Plural for my bros, yeah
Plural for my bros
Steady as we go, keep going
I remember back in the day when we was just kids
Living life and loving it
Not really tripping on the seriousness
But now we got responsibilities
Yeah we got this obligation
And ain't it crazy how it all has changed up
Right in front of our faces
I don't lie to people so I don't lie to myself
And I don't gotta steal nothing from nobody else
I made so much more when I believed in myself
I cheated the people but I was really cheating myself
The youth is losing hope cuz their past is haunted
Sometimes we pray but don't receive the answer we wanted
So it took a little time to touch base and connect
On time and space I reflect
Deflect much haters look like the specs of dust
Hustle all day, never expected much
Eclectic kids with wigs bright as electric plugs
Using their power for evil
But never meant it much
Looking for a high to try
Searching for a head rush
I remember back in the day when we was just kids
Living life and loving it
Not really tripping on the seriousness
But now we got responsibilities
Yeah we got this obligation
And ain't it crazy how it all has changed up
Right in front of our faces
Oh, ain't it crazy, ain't it crazy
Had a couple bros, they turned out to be shady
I been doing my thing
That's why they pay me
I been thinking lately maybe it be time to have a baby
Keep on driving down the road pedal to the floor
I don't really gotta flex hard anymore
You could feel the vibes when we walk through the door
Like woah, so much has changed from before
