Man I just hate nostalgia man Hate goin' back in time just thinking stuff that didn't happen or couldn't be ya know what I'm saying I'm grown I'm grown I figured all I was missin was a chance I figured I learn to get it wit my hands I figured I'd flip that fifty to a band Then I went and turned that band into a fan of em All these rappers thinking back I was a fan of em Now they couldn't get no dap they put they hands up All they talk is poppin xannies and they hand guns I can't listen to em rap if they ain't sayin nothin Poppa call me young man because I am one Always taught me that you better have a plan son Bounce back take the contact and holla and one Since I learned I been up in church wit my hands up Cause I can see the preacher callin yea Tryin' to keep these demons off me whoa I can hear the streets talkin makin peace offerings momma told me keep walkin When them streetlights come on come on come on come on come on I think I hear my momma callin Tellin me come home come home come home I'm grown I'm grown don't go outside don't go outside There's nothin for ya boy it aint for ya boy I implore ya boy Oh for sure for sure life aint gorgeous it destroy ya boy Born in Louisiana raised in Illinois now a Georgia boy In Atlanta tryin to record a song before the morn Me sittin in my corduroy my momma readin Corduroy my brother sister listening back then that was most important for us Can't go back to that why I can't go back to that Before the cell phones and browsers man I hate nostalgia that's a fact ok now Fast forward pass passed forces of the past fortune That's forcin tears down my eyelashes lifes but a Crash course of laughs tasks orders saints and cash hoarders Lord knows I made some bad choices but They aint got the stomach for it see they abs normal me I'm abnormal Half man and half horse a bad boy and if I have to go Through the bad torture I'm a grab hold of what I have and make it last 'til the last quarter that or the Day I see the reaper walkin uh I pray I keep from demons' hauntings ugh I can hear the streets talkin makin peace offerings momma told me keep walkin When them streetlights come on come on come on come on come on I think I see the reaper callin Tellin me come home come home come home I'm grown I'm grown don't go outside don't go outside My partner bobby flay would flip a brick of yay Now he probably sniff about a brick a day I would want to ask him how'd he get this way But when it comes to answers he won't get to say Was sittin in his place wishin I could switch him places Implications of his actions in his face Health disintergrating center stage he get to play the mental patient I feel guilty I aint even get to pray this is crazy Man I got to go right now can't look at my homie something that I can't control right now Or fix it later he won't bounce back no ricochet And it's confusing man I feel I'm finna lose it this is stupid I can't do it Got to stay strong for lil Dooga that's my lil shooter And the girl I love was not his momma I thought that in the future that would be my lil cougar I put her through the rain I took her through the pain She loved me everyday I thought I'd do the same she stayed Too bad it aint a ring up on it oh Down the aisle see the preacher callin Leave and be on beaches seagulls squawking people even deacons scoffing We don't bother God got us you can hear Him speaking softly like Shh don't go outside Tellin me don't go outside I'm grown I'm grown I'm grown There go my pride I'm sorry momma she just trying to make sure I don't go before my time Don't buy into all the drama that'll control your mind Say I'm sorry your honor no comments on my side oops there go my pride That's how it go outside When them streetlights come on Go home
