[Intro] Come and take a trip with me down memory lane… (Take a trip) (Memory Lane) (Trip with me down memory lane) [Verse 1] I’m Jus sittin here thinkin about da past, About how much of it was a blast Big smile while I visit yesteryear From goin to school, Whole lotta days of being a academic anomaly N being hella expelled from da school's vicinity To comin home each day n being glued to the tube watching great toons From Ed, Edd n Eddy to DragonBall Z, If I got bored went out and hanged, playing games Wit my friends on da block, I promise da neighbours didn’t call da cops (haha) We was jus Livin it like a party dat was nonstop, Come back home n spend time wit family, Not zoned out like now in front of a mobile screen, [Chorus] Damn son, what the hell happened? Sometimes I wish we didn’t have to grow up, These days it ain’t nothing but bills n responsibilities, Oh well… what you gonna do? I’m just here taking a trip down memory lane, Reminiscing in fond areas of my brain. [Verse 2] Whole lotta cinema n dope ass music From ice cube, Tupac n eazy e, to da Dre’s n eminems Down to da group dat gave us da M.E.T.H.O.D man Walkman on n chillin, fresh garms, kicks n spare batteries Can’t forget da action flicks From Sly to Arnold, Watching the squint from Clint, To John McClane being a Die Hard hit, To J.C.V.D bringing the van damage, Having a hell of a time sitting with that popcorn ready. All to be topped off with Monday night wars Between two different wrestling companies, Man that’s right I grew up an attitude era kid, hell yeah, That’s the bottom line if ya smell what I’m cookin’ [Chorus] Damn son, what the hell happened? Sometimes I wish we didn’t have to grow up, These days it ain’t nothing but bills and responsibilities, Oh well… what you gonna do? I’m just here taking a trip down memory lane, Reminiscing in fond areas of my brain. [Verse 3] Used to be a simple world with a future ahead Waiting for the taking, Naïve n always smiling Full of dreams n yearnings Happy times with da fam Cookouts n picnics Den before ya know it ya knee deep in bullshit Cuz life throws dem curve balls. Easy to be like “ain’t gonna be me” Until the universe comes providing reality cheques Which da world cashes in on your ass If you ain’t ready for it, man. [Chorus] Damn son, what the hell happened? Sometimes I wish we didn’t have to grow up, These days it ain’t nothing but bills and responsibilities, Oh well… what you gonna do? I’m just here taking a trip down memory lane, Reminiscing in fond areas of my brain.
