Flashback to snapbacks
Snack Packs backpacks
And Moose Tracks to no taxes
And rugrats and backtracking train track tracks
And diving board acrobatic backflips
And procrastinating but passing classes
Though off task for the vast mass
And at last, with lights black and door cracked
Crashing on my mattress after basketball practice
Relaxing and trapping caterpillars in baskets
And casting fireflies off from glasses
To Saturn after we grabbed 'em
Paddling as waves snatched us up and pulled us down
And bounced us back to dad or mom mad
But glad we only had a scratch on our back
And hardly ever more than that
And imagining traveling on boats
With massive masts to magic lands
And past them lacking any further plans
To trashes and chores and rashes
From laying on grass patches barebacked
And skewers for smorgasbords with s'mores
And fantastic naps
Beats and claps at cafeteria tables
And elastic laughs as reactions to inside jokes we had
To gasping when granddad passed me 20 in cash just because
To steak slabs wrapped and stacked in the back of the fridge for later
We savored the flavor and hated the empty paper plate in our lap
After we ate it
To ravenous savages standing on ladders grabbing from cabinets
Candy they shouldn't have had before dinner
A young lad sad he had no knack for whacking fastballs with baseball bats
To unraveling maps for backyard scavenger hunts and having a crush
And not acting upon it 'cus the feeling was fun
To coming home from a rough day to a sub and a cup
Of the soda i love and a hug
To buggin' when bugs were up in my lunch at summer camp
To the damp dew that moistened my shoes
To indeterminate church service sermons
And my first curse words
And with friends trekkin' in Skechers to 7Eleven and gettin' a brain freeze
From free refills of Slurpees we'd sneak
And green beans broccoli and steamed peas we'd never eat
And Chuck-E-Cheese cheese pizzas and jungle gyms
Sitting in the slide, Slip N Slides
And with soap and the hose running
Wanting to stay standing without falling for all 20 feet
And to Peter Rabbit, Aladdin, Madden, The Cat in the Hat
And having to vacuum the mats in the bathroom and basement
And chasing butterflies through space
And racing the shade from the shadow
Down the pavement late for dinner again
Flashback a-keep me grounded
You're just a fraction of doin' boy, hey
When I'm all pavement pounding
When I'm all down in
Boardwalk walks and seagull squawks
And all the long talks until we heard the first bird call
Its call across the sky's hall to all
And how tall all seemed
We army crawled along across the lawns
The logs we tossed in creeks with frogs and moss
And wails we wailed
From yanking dangling hangnails
And pranks we played
To fall days where piles of leaves laid waiting to be jumped in
And mini cops and robbers yelling at the tops of their lungs and
Bothering the neighbors
To lightsabers and lifesavers and kites in flight waving to skyscrapers
And to Bell helmets knee pads shin guards and arm pads as dad let go
I said "no", but lo and behold the wheels rolled on
And I peddled harder, faster
"Look dad, I'm peddling! Look dad, dad I'm peddling!"
Through my youth
Through every loose tooth and new hairdo
And Ju Ju Bees to chew with movies
And cooties and looting through sports cards
Ash, Charzar and Pikachu
And hide and seek tag in the dark
And capture the flag in the yard
And swim team the streamline
The up down up loud sounds
The whistle sounds from dad
Shouts around fast now fast
The last pull in the pool
And the pound and the crowd
I looked up and by point 01
Had out touched the one to my left
And I leapt up
Gave my dad, brother, sister and mother
A soaking wet hug
And stared up at the sun, low it hung
Its rays fingertips on the horizon cliff
And triumphant balled my hand in a fist and pumped it
The full moon just above it
I extended my index finger
Jumped up and touched it
Gon keep me
Gon keep me, hey yeah now
When I'm all
When I'm all pavement poundin'
When I'm all down in
When I'm all
When I'm all
When I'm all, hey
When I'm all pavement poundin'
When I'm all down in
Flashback a-keep me grounded, hey
You're just a fraction of my doin' boy, uh
When I'm all pavement poundin'
When I'm all down in
Yeah
I flashback
Keep me grounded, uh
Man, it's just a fraction, baby
Just of fraction of my doin, yeah
You're just a fraction of my bein', boy uh
When I'm all pavement poundin'
When I'm all down in
Yeah
