Story behind the song
Concept: bringing things back in the day when shit was so simple and easy with no worries or anything. In the end, we're all still growing an maturing and all we have is those memories so why not close your eyes and try to relive those moments through memory. (hence the voice changing)
Notice the way things were written as well...
Thanks for peepin yaw.
Lyrics
I remember back in the day when shit was so easy/
I never got any homework or maybe, it's because I was lazy/ And that's how it went, when I was just a shorty/
Nowadays I gotta worry 'bout my future constantly/
I got into trouble just for chillin' at the park/
Back in the day, we played hide n seek in the dark/
And that shit was real, walkin' around the block/
Played ball at the park until we had holes up in our socks/
Just me and my buddies kickin' back to chill/
And havin' a crisp dollar felt like you had a mill/
I love being clueless bout everything that went on/
And every kid's response to something was prolly 'bout ya moms/
Lookin' back on things when I was so free/
Wakin' up at 8:10 when school started at 8:30/
No stress, all curiousity, wasn't even held down by the shackles of worries/
The golden age of my life I love to sit and reminsce, rememberin the days... when I walked to everywhere I went/
Sometimes I sit and think about my old ways/
Close my eyes, take a breath, re-live the old days/
You know it's funny seeing things change/
I remember balla' status was rockin a gold chain/
Ya know, and freestyles were all about them rhymes and lyrics/
And whoever sported them Adidas has the FRESHEST kicks/
Back when the hate was just a little look in the eyes/
Then you settle it, with a fresh verse off the mind/
Around the block, passing neighborhood stories/
And I always wondered, what happened to them damn house parties?/
The times you would wake up WAY before noon/
Every damn Saturday to watch them morning cartoons/
I wanna take it back to when everything was all good/
And put a smile on my face, even when I'm in a bad mood/
Fuck the clubs, alcohol, and all the luxury/
Music and my peeps is all I need to start a party/
And sometimes I sit and think about the old ways/
Close my eyes, take a breath, relive the old days/
[hook x2]
I wanna take it back to when it was all good/
Makin' nothin into something like, everybody should/
When everything was everything with nothin' attached/
What happened to the love? gimme the good ol' days back/
I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back
I wanna take it back, to when it was all good...
