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

but some days I sit wish I was a kid again (x2)


Back in the days......





When I was just a little niggero

I looked up to my bigger bro

Begged if I could kick it so

When he went out with girls I could go taggin along

Naggin,if she had a sis,maybe could mack a baby hood rat

Y'all remember way back then

When it was 1985

All the way live

I think I was about ten

One of those happy little niggas

singin the blues

That be always tryin 2 bag

with the shag

and karate shit

Sayin yo mama black

His momma this

His momma that

Then he'd get mad and wanna scrap

We'd stay mad,about ten minutes spin it

like back on the bike

to play hide and go get it

with the younger hoes

by the bungalos

Then switch to playing ding-dong-ditch

When that gets old

and to cold to hack it

Threw on a baller jacket

You could tell the ballers

cause they fell wearin gazelles

If they relly had money raised we'd sport NeeKay's (Nike's)

And on the girls had they turkish link

If it broke they made earings to it,

like they mean to do it

But sometimes I still sit and reminisce

Then think about the years I was raised,

back in the days



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

but some days I sit wish I was a kid again (x4)



And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

What?

(Backin the days)

When?

(back in the days)



Im still back in the days

But now the year is 87-88

Thats when my crew and I

Were in Junior high

in 7th grade

I hated school

(wishin i had grown up)

No doubt I couldnt wait to get out

(and be a grown up)

But let me finish this

reminiscin and tellin

Bout when girls was spellin

tight cordorouys

like for the boys

Basket weaves

Nike cortez and footsie socks

And eatin pickles with tootsie pops

And it dont stop

I'm glad

cause when JJ fad

Did super sonic

It was kind of like a sport

to where biker shorts

Or to where jeans

and it seemed like the masses of hoochies

Had poison air brushed on they asses

Dudes had on nike suits

And the Puma's with the fat laces

Cause it was either that or K-Swiss

I miss those days

and so I pout like a grown jerk

Wishin all I had to do now was finish homework

Its true

you dont realize really what you got

til its gone and im not gonna sing another sad song

but sometimes I do sit and reminisce

then think about the years I was raised

Back in the day



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

but some days I sit wish I was a kid again (x4)



And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

What?

(Backin the days)

When?

(back in the days) (x2)



Well its the niggero

I figure that now im all grown up

Because im 18 years old

And guess you could say im holdin down

a steady job,and crew steady mob

and you steady bobbin your head

And im paid

so I got it made

but didnt always have clout

Used to live in south central LA

Thats where I stayed and figured a way out

I gave it all I had

so for what its worth

I went from rags to riches

wich is a drag

but now im first

So(?....on our way up)

Yeap,we said that we was gonna make it since a kid

and we finally did

But sometimes I still sit and reminisce then

think about the years I was raised

back in the day



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

but some days I sit wish I was a kid again (x4)



And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

And everybody say

(I remember way back when)

What?

(Backin the days)

When?

(back in the days)
