When I was a Kid
Momma always gave me spankins'
When I was a Teen
Had to get the last word in
Now a Young Man
Tryna get out HU
Pops droppin' knowledge
On the whole way through

Yesterday's Blues

As I proceed
To try to give ya
What you need
Check it
(Yuh)

You better be back at this house by 5
That's 1700 in Military Time
Pops set the watch
Then I got to going
To the neighborhood cul-de-sac
Even when it snowed man
I was making Snowmen
Tryna hang out with the cool kids
Jumping ditches
Playing Baseball
And acting stupid

Hey guys
Being grown shouldn't be so tough
All you do is drink liq
And wait for girls to give it up
The youngest in the group
I was full of play
Left in the evening
But laughed all day
Till one day
I stood there shook
Street lights came on
And for my house I booked
Not looking back
I didn't give a f*ck
Cuz mom was at the house with the leather belt tucked
She asked me for the time
I looked at my wrist
Then looked up
And said 6:06
She told me drop my shit
And then beat my ass real quick
Had me set the table
Wiped all my tears
Goddamn Ma
It's hard to sit in this wooden chair
But you could tell that she didn't care

When I was a Kid
Momma always gave me smackins'
When I was a Teen
Had to get the last word in
Now a Young Man
Tryna get out HU
Pops droppin' knowledge
On the whole way through

My mom always cared though
I was hard headed asf
Still am (Yuh yuh yuh)

Let's skip to high school
Damn that shit was tough
Niggas called me 'Radio'
And that shit stuck
Even spitting bars
Even with my shirt tucked
In my NSU pants
Shoes shined like
(Clutch)
I was going off the dome
Way back then
I don't remember all of it
But here's how it begins

"My name is Steven Hall
Aka Radio and I be fucking the bitches
And laying down hoes"

Lunchtime crowd flows
I took that nickname
Shined that shit and let it glow
But just for the record
I don't call women bitches any mo
I'm a gentleman of life
And student of the Flow

When I was a Kid
Momma always gave me smackins'
When I was a Teen
Had to get the last word in
Now a Young Man
Tryna get out HU
Pops droppin' knowledge
On the whole way through
