Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Shit! It seems like yesterday I was only five

And my mom used to put out my clothes to get shavvin

These days I gotta get dressed myself

But let me go back in time, like Michael J myself

Well, my moms was a fox, she's still a fox

But my sister grew up, she took her spot as the fox

But it still was all good

My dad used to work all the time, he was rarely home

Sing this song

You see, uh I used just to watch cartoons

Back then my homies didn't have war wounds

You fast forward a little, older when I got

A lot of my homies see that they all got shot

But I remember the days, I remember the times

When we used to listen Eric B and Rakim for rhymes

And we used to shoot ball at the park everyday

But now things changed, I'm on my way, see

I'm on my way, see

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Yeah, you see, I used to like snack time

And pre-kid I used to like when it was nap time

I used to get my mat out,

Chyeah I remember when we used to have to do math like one plus one equals two?

I remember when I learned my A, B, Cs

And my one, two, threes, it was just so eased

And my dad sat me down,

And he taught me about the birds and the bees

Then I used to bring home bees,

And then I started bringing home seeds

Even brought home dees and I saw the way

That my mom used to cry when I brought home the dees

So I got up on my GOB

And I used to shine like the sun

And I used to sip on Capris

I used to like the gummy bears

And I used to like the fruit gushes

And I used to get snowballs with rome

But fast forward I used to watch The Flintstones

But it's funny how time go and my homie long gone, but uh

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Remember your first kiss

And your first girl that you really made love with?

That was the shit,

Remember how you used to need her fit for the dance?

You was running around trying to get something for the homecoming

Then you went to your prom

See that was just your time, that was your time to shine

Now everybody trying to work on their 10 years anniversaries

And half of your homies stay up in the hearse you see

Remember the "rest in peace" T-shirts and the second line

Hardy hard a lot of smiles when we was at that Marti Grass

Chicks was trying to get the bees

I remember back in the day

When you ain’t had to worry about trying to worry about feeding yourself

Now you feed your seed and you're getting what you need

You can't get what you want

You used to have an allowance, you used to watch TV

Hot day during the summer man back in the days

Plan back in the days, you know

I remember back in the days, let's go

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again

Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore, anymore

Grown up huh? You know

I wish I could hop in the same time

Machine, that Michael J Fox got in it

And go back in the days

I ain’t really had to worry bout nothing

Peanut butter & jelly sandwiches

You know, lil debby cakes

Put your lil uniform on girl let’s do it, that’s it

I’m a 80’s baby

It wasn’t really that hard to please moms and pops

I love the 90’s too

Remember they had too much to worry bout

That’s what it used to be like

Girls was uh

Sometime I still wish I was like girls is uh

But love licks, and a nigga really got turned up you know

Mack Maine’s a ay

Back in the days, back in back in back in the days

When I was young, I’m not a kid say

Back in the days, see I remember way back in the days

When all my homies they was kids

I wish that we could really be kids again

I wish that we could really be friends again

I miss my homies, I just wish that, I just wish that…
