Area 80 - nostalgia hits harder
[00:00.42] Time keeps expandin', as life is handin'
[00:02.56] Out these lessons and some blessings
[00:04.14] To keep us guessin'
[00:05.47] Don’t know what to be expectin'
[00:07.06] Now I’m addressin'
[00:08.12] The kid in me was put to rest when
[00:09.73] Manhood was testin'
[00:11.32] Battling our self-complexions
[00:12.65] Can get complex when
[00:13.70] You divided in project sections
[00:15.56] Where we was plexin'
[00:16.63] But I guess my guilty confession
[00:18.49] Adulting is more of a mess than growing up with less than
[00:21.15] Cuz how we go from recesses to a recession
[00:24.06] Came from ignorance is bliss to therapy sessions
[00:26.98] Knuckleheads hooping at Big Park was the obsession
[00:29.64] Now we work our lives away for earthly possessions
[00:32.56] Even Earth was happier now it has depression
[00:35.22] The climate has been changing for a while, but neglection
[00:38.15] Is why the hard truth is something we are not acceptin'
[00:41.06] Small moments turn to memories after reflectin'
[00:43.72] As time is stretchin'
[00:45.06] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[00:46.92] Didn’t wanna grow up
[00:47.97] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[00:49.30] But I’ve grown too much
[00:50.89] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[00:52.22] Now I feel out of touch
[00:53.81] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[00:55.14] From the kid I once was
[00:56.48] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[00:57.80] Didn’t wanna grow up
[00:59.12] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[01:00.72] But I’ve grown too much
[01:02.05] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[01:03.38] Now I feel out of touch
[01:04.97] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[01:06.30] From the kid I once was
[01:07.10] Take me back in time
[01:08.16] Where we would freestyle rhymes
[01:08.96] And say some borderline out-of-line things
[01:11.35] But not a crime to really push the line
[01:13.00] On how we pushed our minds not be confined
[01:14.86] By the ladder climb where at the top you’ll find
[01:16.72] No peace of mind where no human’s kind
[01:18.59] Quite the opposite thrown in a pit
[01:20.38] Where those profits might
[01:21.44] Get your pockets picked, incompetence
[01:23.30] Is the main offense
[01:24.09] These conglomerates don’t give a bit
[01:25.96] About you making cents
[01:27.02] Your relevance and existence in a sense is witherin'
[01:29.67] So as a Child of God just remember that you’re heaven-sent
[01:32.60] Mentally frequently visiting my childhood residence
[01:35.52] Got it out the mud, dirt on my shoulder makes it evident
[01:38.44] Blood might get drawn for sediments and it’s unsettlin'
[01:41.10] Government in the Olympics how they be meddlin'
[01:44.02] Moments you wish you could get back but there’s no backpedalin'
[01:46.68] Got some whoopins breaking box springs when was wrestlin'
[01:49.60] Back when Jolie was Wanted and life wasn’t Maleficent
[01:52.52] Back when I binged Ben 10
[01:54.12] Bowl of Frosted Flakes with bananas sliced in
[01:56.24] For breakfast, life was so benevolent
[01:58.10] When many men did sin
[01:59.70] Fathers drift with the wind
[02:01.02] He growing up and pretends
[02:02.62] It ain’t affectin' him
[02:03.95] Back when we didn’t listen
[02:05.54] Adolescence settled in
[02:06.87] Trying hard to fit in
[02:08.19] Hopin' they accepted him
[02:09.52] Bad boys no Pistons
[02:11.11] But if God is Willing
[02:12.44] Smith and Wesson won’t be the last thing to address him
[02:15.63] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[02:16.69] Didn’t wanna grow up
[02:18.29] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[02:19.61] But I’ve grown too much

[02:22.54] Now I feel out of touch

[02:25.46] From the kid I once was

[02:28.11] Didn’t wanna grow up
[02:29.71] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[02:31.03] But I’ve grown too much
[02:32.63] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[02:33.69] Now I feel out of touch
[02:35.29] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[02:36.61] From the kid I once was
[02:37.68] Take me back please
[02:40.33] To when I was so happy
[02:42.99] Cuz somethings surely happening to me, to me
[02:48.83] Take me back please
[02:51.75] To when I was so happy
[02:54.41] Cuz somethings surely happening to me, to me
[03:00.78] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[03:02.11] Didn’t wanna grow up
[03:03.71] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[03:05.03] But I’ve grown too much
[03:06.36] (Nostalgia hits harder)
[03:07.69] Now I feel out of touch
[03:09.29] (Nostalgia hits harder)
