remember back in the day when you and me used to harmonize just like (oooooohhhh ohhh ohh oooooohhhh) on some Lauryn Hill shit.

back in the day when we played them games. not in a peculiar type of way I'm actually sayin, we actually playin. in a get to know you, get to know me, the way children my age developed homies. playin shinobi and other type of sega hits, slowly but surly our shared interest turned into a friendship. one to connect with, one to be direct with, one to cause some shit and our parents go n get upset with . on some true shit, i always liked when we'd do shit. on our crew shit, kinda like a cruise ship, but I'll be the one sinkin if we tank this relationship, I'll be the one on the ground if I let any feelings slip. it seemed we were connected at the hip, but then teenage hormones had to ruin it, now we hang with different clicks, I was with gangsta kids, you were with the pretty chicks, pressures of our influences, made us polar opposites. Its strange still, you pop in my brain like pills, n it makes me feel like maybe love can be real with someone so chill ,my momma tells me the truth heals but if i told you how I really feel i think that truth will kill. like a steel blade feel the impact when it penetrates, now blood drips and stains the roads we paved, the memories we made was almost all for naught, thinking back to the good ol' day is almost all forgot, gettin lost, in alcohol and mists of pot. gettin lost, in the stuipidness cuz that's all I got. gettin lost, with them hooligans runnin from cops, gettin lost, family tellin me I need to search for god, and ask for forgiveness, send you my prayers lord please be my witness, show my affections I hope that she gets it, but my efforts are finished because timing and distance.
.... years pass, different schools different class, same roads different paths, It couldn't last, livin fast we had to crash at our impasse like two cars made of glass n no brake pads, thinkin that this is my only chance for some true romance it took all my confidence and talkin to all my friends to approach you like a man and ask for your hand to dance and explain all my feelings but she like (hold up) cuz you think you can just show up and roll up n show love and I'll reciprocate them to a thug, then I'm like, (hold up) cuz you think u know whats what but whats up I thought you'd be a little bit more grown up, and she like (hold up) grown up? nigga you still sell drugs, nigga you still ain't blown up and chased your dreams of stardom, but I'm like (hold up) stardom? baby I'm makin albums, baby I make my outcome, stay marchin to my own drum, then I was like (hold up) plz just hold your tongue, this arguin is dumb, why can't we be like when we were young? plz (hold up) if it matters to you so much you won, I've givin up on love I swear that I'm done but (hold up) one more thing before I run, you could of been above anyone you could of been my everyone, n everything that I (hold up) but like the moon to the sun, the gravity between us is what we've become so I'm done... holding up...
