You know what they say “the good die young “… Didn’t want to live long anyway Seem like first kisses next to school houses Turned to marriage, spouses, sex and dinner dates
Call of duty We used play games And roleplay Now we play roles And hope for payroll We burn bridges just Pay dues and …To pay toll When duty calls (1-800) It takes tolls On us and when times hard We break rolls
Of quarters in order To feed our daughters
And sons Blame it on the damn sun
Blame it on the days passed Oh how time sway fast
Duck Duck to playing Mother goose paying bills To keep loose bills shut. Loose bills shut in savings to keep new bills up. Cut bad friends off sorry my crews cut Crewcut, interview new shaving (Its funny how we grew up) We gossip, spilling tea To make a fresh brewed cup
“But Honey we just add lemons life threw us”
And often when we argue Our inner-kid take part too
We need immaturity To humble us We need that purity In that adult world that Crumbles us
I’ll rather drown-in the foun-tain of youth
Than to fall down at the peak of reality
Of the mountain of truth
Some of us had seeds(kids) Some gotten buried(Died) Some got green Some got married—
–go-round the ring finger gold bound stone bleaming
And to those I give a green thumbs up
Know what ? I really regret saying I can’t wait till I grow up
