Before the great recession and my adolescence
Nothin was hectic life was nice it was so pleasant
I'm talkin' back in the days of candy cigarettes and whoopie cushions
Razor scooters were the vehicles that we were pushin'
Nice days, we were tearin' up the streets
Life was so complete down at Koopa Troopa beach
Back when Diddy had the nickname Puffy
We were cruising down the streets drag racing in Huffys
And then we'd upgrade to jerseys in 5th grade
We felt obligated paper routes were our compensation
No salaries, nine to fives or pensions
All we had to worry bout was after school detention
As I look back and reminisce
I realize that life was the shit when we were kids
So when you're feelin' down and you gettin' stressed
Remember life as a kid it was simply the best
Back in the days, back back in the days
Before I had a dream that I'd be rockin' a stage
Before I ever knew about an hourly wage
We were livin' for us, no one could take it away
Back in the days, back back in the days
Before I had a dream that I'd be rockin' a stage
Before I ever knew about an hourly wage
We were livin' for us, no one could take it away
Now I'm in the ninth grade, just a mere freshman
My boy was sittin' next to me, had a sincere question
Yo, Have you ever tried beer or smoked weed
A senior that's a friend of a friend said it appeases stresses
I figured they just told him that so they could keep him guessin
It hadn't dawned on me we were dealin' with peer pressure
He said Friday - let's hit a soirée
I started laughing thinking it would be cool to party with upperclassmen
He said "come on bro you can't be lame
There'll be plenty of chicks and they'll be playing drinking games
And just think you play your cards right you might get laid
That was it right there my decision was made
So then we went to the spot
A couple hours passed
Things were moving slowly something like an hour glass
I had a couple of drinks took a couple of puffs
Thinking I like to party man I can't get enough
Back in the days, back back in the days
Before I had a dream that I'd be rockin' a stage
Before I ever knew about an hourly wage
We were livin' for us, no one could take it away
Back in the days, back back in the days
Before I had a dream that I'd be rockin' a stage
Before I ever knew about an hourly wage
We were livin' for us, no one could take it away away
Back back in the days
Back back in the days
Back back in the days
Back back in the days
Back back in the days
Back back in the days
No one could take it away
No one could take it away
We were livin’ for us no one could take it away
Back back in the days
Back back in the f*ck
