Lyrics

So confused where the days went
All the days spent in Dre's basement
In Donny's living room
I remember speaking to you
The feeling I got was like sitting on the moon
Without a space suit
I felt my head would pop
Every time I heard vocals drop
In that crazy little loop
I was a crazy little youth
Cassette tape playing
I was ready for the booth
That's what mama joked about
She said you act like them clowns on TV
With that funny haircut
Pants hanging off you
Chest poking out
They not cool
You need to stop imitating that trash
Told me pick up a ball and stay in class
She said I don't know who got you into that
And why you wanna rap
It's nothing but a trap
Then I turned and looked her in the eyes and said
You
You are me
And so am I
We must try
We must try
We must try
To recapture
Days gone by
So ball ain't work
Neither did class work
Daydreaming at my four walls
Looking through past work
Five star notebook filled up with some fun some hurt
Rhymes of the old school
Trying to succeed on the pro tools
But this hip hop is old news
And I'm trying to incorporate it into the new
Without dumbing it down
Without being untrue
They say the proof is in the stew
The pudding in the cake
So if you do you they can't help but relate
My ox say it's fake
So I feel at peace with the mic
Mama agreed when I said you're dead
So I guess you're reaching the light
Your condition is tragic
And it hurts my soul
When I'm searching for the old
Look back at my moms like where did it go
Then she turned and said
