Lyrics:
yesterday
I was born in the slums, struggled from day one
Ray Charles vision, blinded by the light from the sun
No navigation, no sense of direction
And the people by the window
Playing card and reading papers
Looked as far away from as as next summer school vacation
Now the kids at night break window lights
I remember every little thing
As if it happened only yesterday
Parking by the lake
And there was not another car in sight
And I never had a girl
called, for such a time as this!"
You can't resist the change
And you're not condemned by your yesterday
If you can grab hold of your now, and move in your
yesterday man, what the fuck, damn,
One day kid, you'll understand,
So I ran and I ran and I ran, is there hope?
Nope, but there's dope, I hope you
time for the deadline
Cops shooting kids in the street cos they’re black
Now isn’t it time that we take it back
By the people, for the people, what
list is crossed off
The fit made its debut at the crosswalk
And I got all the juice to make all these cars honk
The former lost cause gettin' eyed by
Please don't take too seriously what I say
I am still a kid in a way
I'm living my life staying away
From the games I don't wanna play
But when we
great
Traveling different states
Upgrading my living tastes
My living place yeah I'm by the lake
Now I'm over by the ocean
When I was a kid I never
there by members of the Ku Klux.
So peep Kool G. Rap, don't sleep, money unless it's witcha girl.
Straight up kid, I'm blowin' up in the world.
I reckon by the time the sun goes down you'll turn the page
or even Better tell me something that'll never change
But Im not banking on a promise
Ain't no love in Oakland, bitch
Niggas always talkin bout 'I love you'
But ain't no love, bitch
Now it's a shame, I can't be saved by John
Tell them that I miss them
By the way, I miss you too
I was thinking just today
About how we used to play
Barbie dolls and makeup
Tea Parties, dress
Wow man!
Feels like I was 21 yesterday and another Decade's already flown by...Yo that's crazy!
Another decade gone by
Another Decade gone by
Fly,
Traveling's the fun
Flashing by the countryside
Merrily we roll along, roll along
Catching at dreams
Yesterday is done
See the pretty
Laughs
Beats by Jhay yeah
Aye yo
Best Rapper in Africa yeah I’m really popping
Niggas really asking why I be so cocky
You should ask your sister why
by
Always wondering what I'm really looking for
Now here I am
Back knocking at your door
Now I know
We were kids and you were living down
kids swell?
We don't have to wonder what happened to the world's ideals anymore
This gang behind me has taken them all!
So, would I be hanged if I
prisons and schools
Now what's a poor man left to do?
One heart now broken in two
You start untying the hands of the youth
New kids hear the sound
maybe by this time next year
I’m not the same boy I need to be shown the way
I lost myself walking here just yesterday
Take me off the shelf turn me into
Yesterday was gone, I found it hard
Walked the streets along my basement yard
Saw the kids and they walked on their feet
Used to crawl but they found
outta that
Don't say nothing on the phone
You don't wanna hear 'em say in court
Yesterday he was ya brother
Now today he just a corpse
Tell me how we pose
Seems like yesterday
I was six years old
But I'm close to adulthood now
Or so I've been told
And my life is flying by so fast
I hope I'll make these
the same
Pictures never change just the people do
Looking at these photographs of me and you
It seems like yesterday when I had that long hair
Some things
