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
