Memories of the past
It was such a blast
But you blink and its all flown by
Remember chillin' on the corner laughing at the guys?
Not thinking about a job, or the struggle, or  the how-to's of the hustle.
Listening to music and dreaming such and such.
When the black outs would come on the streets,  and we got to be ninjas as we all roamed the street
Christmas with family getting told 'you're so big'
Nowadays these kids have kids
Stealing kisses in the shadows of the day
We were innocent once
Looking the world in wonder and chasing everyday
Never had time to wonder if someone was gay.
Times changing fast
Seconds to months and we barely understand
Childhoods lost in photos staring back with knowing smiles.
Look around
Today is the past, isn't that wild?
