[Intro]
[?]
Blue
[Chorus]
Take me to the time when I was just a kid
Take me before all this shit my pops did
My mom was down and out as she slept on the couch while she put food in our mouths like birds did
Crocodile tears are real crappy, though
Don't really matter long, you look happy, though
Why are we not when we were happy, though?
Take me to when I was happy
[Verse]
My nickname Yan-Yan
I was a kid in the streets on a island that start with a “G” with a breeze by the leaves
I’d be on the side of the streets eating Yan-Yans
My mom gave me that name after the snack I just mentioned
Food for thought intended
I was five when a little was a lot
I was five with Spiderman drawls
I was five when the cast came off
I didn't think I'd get this far
I write about being a kid 'cause that was my purest form of memory 'cause that was my truest
Truth, loyalty, I thought we were curious about all the good that was towards the head of us but gold turned to silver now like some loose change
Everything my mom taught is not the same
I've grown to be a man with faults and shames with all the pain that I gained
As I walk through my pen I’m actually (running)
[Chorus]
Take me to the time when I was just a kid
Take me before all this shit my pops did
My mom was down and out as she slept on the couch while she put food in our mouths like birds did
Crocodile tears are real crappy, though
Don't really matter long, you look happy, though
Why are we not when we were happy, though?
Take me to when I was happy
[Bridge]
(Colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors, colors)
(Colors, colors)
(Take me, take me)
(Colors, colors)
(Take me, take me)
(Take me, take me)
[Chorus]
Take me to the time when I was just a kid
Take me before all this shit my pops did
My mom was down and out as she slept on the couch while she put food in our mouths like birds did
Crocodile tears are real crappy, though
Don't really matter long, you look happy, though
Why are we not when we were happy, though?
Take me to when I was happy
