215

Been a long, long way

Since Mom's box braids

And Kool-Aid packs

And half school days

Since Kenan and Kel and old Slim Shady

Damn, I love the good old days

Been a long, long way from 215

From winter days and summer nights

I've been up, been down

Search deep, search down, and found

Found the love I need

Found the love for me

When I started loving me

Started loving me

Oh, trying to get better

Every day, I'm trying to grow

Apologize for every lie I ever told

For every twenty out my mom's wallet I stole

For Arizona and the cheesesteak out the corner store

Sorry for every C, I could have studied harder

Nah, we ain't taking L's, it's just the marijuana

Mama, welcome to the good life, I just signed the dotted

Oh, now realize I'm just getting everything I prayed for

Been a long, long way

Since Mom's box braids

And Kool-Aid packs

And half school days

Since Kenan and Kel and old Slim Shady

Damn, I love the good old days

Been a long, long way from 215

From winter days and summer nights

I've been up, been down

Search deep, search down, and found

Found the love I need

Found the love for me

Started loving me

Started loving me

Oh, put away childish things, yeah, I done grown up

Stuck to the plan, I put the plan in order

Oh, I talk to God and start demanding orders

Oh, like, father, God don't won't my mom to cry no more

Grab all my sisters and go ball out in them stores

Make sure my partner's back don't never sleep on floors

Start getting what I want and started wanting more

Now realize I'm just getting everything I prayed for

Been a long, long way

Since Mom's box braids

And Kool-Aid packs

And half school days

Since Kenan and Kel and old Slim Shady

Damn, I love the good old days

Been a long, long way from 215

From winter days and summer nights

I've been up, been down

Search deep, search down, and found

Found the love I need

Found the love for me

Started loving me

Started loving me
