La da da da Hey, hey, hey Goodbye Uhhh (hmmm) Sometimes I think back Way back, like more than a decade ago, I was a kid with a backpack Early morning I'm going to school With my boys Lloyd and Johnathan, in the afternoon we back in the hood We actually would Whenever we could Go to each others' houses, tight bond, we was sharing our food And when you'd ask me how it does, if all of my brothers is good then I'm good Nobody changing my mood, huh I remember my afternoons in the streets Money game football so we could purchase some treats Dirty clothes when I get back home, take a lil' bath 'cause momma made it clear une shena you ain't using my sheets Oh and yeah, I was that kid in the choir 3pm I go to church, sing for the Messiah Sing praise, lift Jesus higher and higher And let me tell you sumn' crazy that happened prior It was that phase I was all about hood gymnastics At one point I broke my arm attempting a backflip And my mom was arriving from work, and gave me a backhand 'cause she always told me that shit was hectic It was nighttime, momma called an ambulance, we had no car I'm thinking damn, my arm is broken but her heart got a scar She's feeling more pain This kid is insane What I gotta do to really penetrate his brain? Don't he understand how I love and care for him? Don't he understand I'm always just protecting him? Don't he know that he my son, and his future bright She was right, well sometimes it's no wonder why I'm Feeling a little bit nostalgic It all turned out right now it seems like it's magic I just wanna go back to that simpler time Before I got this gift and curse in rhyme Curse in rhyme Got this gift and curse in rhyme I just wanna go back to that simpler time Before I got this gift and curse in rhyme Got this gift and curse in rhyme (La da da da) Got this gift and curse in rhyme (Hey, hey, hey, goodbye) Uhhh Which brings me to today, I seen my momma push to start it She didn't impress me on that occasion, but the car did I'm more Impressed with how she raised me without no help from a man And bro, I don't understand Why I need my own car now to feel like a man These upper echelon spoilt brats done fucked me up man They don't know about my struggle, they don't know how I'm working hard from a plan Whatchu know about fifteen ks to and from nebhizautare For studio time, to spit a rhyme kuti uite mari Just so that one day you can by a hambautare Finally take out your crush ari papassenger seat asinganyare Wotengera mhomz one kaden paHarare Kuma low density kana vachida 3 futi kwaMutare Wovaitira, isusu takakurira paghetto, ndainzi Bento, gogaz yangu ichifumira monaz kuMbare Kunohodha magoods kuisa pamusika kuti tirare Takaguta, taisambonyunyuta Taiimba bhachi nejean usasare Tichivhurirwa nzira yepachibage, skiri riye riye Next time kuti ungware Before I needed to go to the club kuti ndifare Before I got exposed to the hub, the Autumns and Desirees Those days ndichiri kunzi younger imboenda panze unotamba nevamwe vako before vechikuru mufamily vagara pasi kuti vaite dare Simpler times man
