I was young and now im older and it seems like i got the world pressed on my shoulders, it seems only like yesturday i was playing with my friends, and didnt have a care in the world just letting my life blow in the wind,they always said boy you better enjoy being young, because once you get older you gonna sang a new song, i didnt care what they said i just kept movin on, go to school thats what they always say, i didnt liscene just went on my way, running like there was no tomorrow, messing up my life wanting someone to feel sorrow, but who is the blame bringing my parents to shame,worry about my homeboyz calling me lame, putting my life on hold for a few wreckless fames, oh he's a playa oh he's a pimp, walkin around with your pockets on limp, ya homies said a dog i got yo back, they didnt say that shit when yo tires got flat, a dog what yal got on the gas, they turn there heads while lookin out the window glass, a dog lets rob this store i got yo back, when they got caught they gave the po, pos all the facts, they said boy when you gonna grow and be a man, and as i look at myself what i saw i couldnt stand, how did i mess up my life so damn fast, you couldve been some one if you didnt fuck up your pass and thats a reallity check for your ass.
