[Verse 1]

I was sleeping in class, took a seat in the back

Dreamin’ of rap reading speeches while receiving a plaque

The bell ring, we outta here, interruptin’ my dream

Now when I write the pen and mic is like a pipe to a fiend

Cyphers at lunch, groupies crowd around in a bunch

Wink my eye at her once, watch her try to catch up like [hunts?]

Just to walk the hall with a nigga spring, summer, fall

Used to want them all, my niggas

We sippin’ on some liquor ‘fore we dip into the party quick

Jason had the cup so what we mixing the Bacardi with?

Shit, if they shootin’ then we hop the fence

I ain’t dyin' cause some nigga scuff somebody kicks

Photos represent us who we were at this time

So now this image seem to stay stuck in my mind

Couldn’t explain it any better so I wrote it in song

I pray our souls rise ‘fore the devil know that we gone

[Hook]

In my younger days, younger days, younger days

I used to sport a shine

In my younger days, younger days, younger days

I used to sport a shine

Always got [?]

[Verse 2]

We was mackin’ girls from other schools who came to see us play

But little did they know [?] was losin’ every game

I was the captain of the team so I had a couple groupies

Kick it, buy a ticket to [Thelona?] and the movies

Kiss and missin’ most of the plot

My hands went from in her shirt to fingers close to her twat

That’s what we called it back then

That’s how we chill from 93 until infinity

Winnin’ women’s hearts and later losin’ they virginities

Girls that I corrupted, [?] in public

Young, wasn’t in love so in turn they fell in love with

I know your friends say just how good we be together

I hate to break your heart but you deserve somebody better

The girl I really wanted she just split up with another

Too scared to even ask, was close enough to be her brother

Boy I’ll see you in the summer, number under her name

Keep in touch Dre, please don’t ever change

Well

[Hook]

[Outro]

Yea we used to, always make sure you get like the baddest chick

Used to see who had the dopest thing written about them

And girls always said “don’t show nobody”

You know five minutes later niggas was showing to they boys like

‘yo, look what she wrote’

E’rybody woulda had a crazy [?] dog remember?

Remember back like, you know what I’m sayin’

When cats used to rock, uh what’s that junk called?

Used to rock [Dada?], niggas used to rock like [Platinum?] Fubu and shit

Ay shit was cool til niggas was wearing that shit all the time

We was like man, nigga Fat Albert again? Damn nigga

Dog, remember the [Avery’s] jackets and shit man

Remember cuttin’ class man

Bringing chicks to the movies and shit you know what I’m sayin’

Aw man

Miss this shit though
