Growin' Old
Lyricist:John Dust, Chris James
[Incomprehensible] Huh, oh, yeah, ooh Check it
We used to roll through Inglewood bumpin' The Beasties Dana Dane on repeat 'till the tapedeck deceased Me, my brother Carlo, BTwice and Ern Brn Singing 'You must learn'
Turned the same corner thousands of times Thousands of crimes, petty but still we jetty Thousands of rhymes in our minds until we caught a headache Those were the days, these are the nights, I'm afraid To say it, I hang them in my heart, save them for a rainy day
Beastie Boys, Dana Dane and JJ Fad Oh, it kinda makes me sad Because, oh, we growin' old Oh, we growin' old, oh, we growin' old
Fats Boys, Beat Street and Kangol hats Oh, it kinda makes me sad Because oh we growin' old Oh, we growin' old, oh, we growin' old
Way back in 1989 before hip hop had perks The girls had 'I Love Daisies' on their shirts and it worked With me falling in love with the whole scene with a dream That I'd rock the stage and do the same dang thing
Ties hanging from the pants, everybody had dreadlocks Back then, light skinned nig ruled the whole block We rocked polka dots, gangstas wore Guess with house shoes Without a care with nothin' to lose, come on
De La Soul, JB's and A Tribe Called Quest Man we didn't know what we missed Because, oh, we growin' old, oh, we growin' old Oh, we growin' old
3rd Base, Special Ed and KRS Years ahead all of the rest Because, oh, we growin' old, oh we growin' old Oh, we growin' old
The Pharcyde, Souls Of Mischief and the Wu Tang Clan Oh, we didn't have a plan Because oh we growin' old, oh, we growin' old Oh, we growin' old
The Freestyle Fellowship and MC Shan The wind blew away the sand Because oh, we growin' old, oh, we growin' old Oh, we growin' old
I once had the whole world And all the time in the land The mountains, high and the valleys, low
I never planned That it would leak right through my hand And I guess, it's too late to know
B boys, B girls Be boys, be girls Good night
