Staring at your picture on a Friday evening
What a nice smile you got
I don't know you anymore
Staring in the mirror on a monday morning
Quarter pa**ed eight O'Clock
You don't know me anymore
[Verse 1: Deuce Wonder then Omar LinX]
Yesterday I remenisced for a little while
I use to stare up at the stars as a little child
And everywhere I went I always wore a little smile
And how you feel now ?
Feelin' like I'm in denial
Oblivious to the chaos, I played on
All them sunny days and blue skies
Singing out the same song
Thinkin' about the rainbow
Not thinkin' about the rainstorm
Thinkin' about my lego
Not thinkin' on how to stay strong
At night time mama use to whisper in my ear
Lullabies of a prince
So crystal clear
But as I slept, those eyes started drippin' tears
We broke the bank 5 times in a fiscal year
We were kids, then
Young bucks
Livin' life
Havin' fun
Everyday's a chance for the things that you haven't done
I wouldn't trade it for the world
If I had of known
I couldn't stay forever young so I had to go

I left home that night, alone as ever
And stepped outside into a cold december
You see this, harsh world does damage to a young soul
But as I grew I learned lessons of the untold
I would chill with these dudes like they were elders man
So about 14, I was selling grams
And if I ever even thought I didn't know enough
I'd find the answers in a bottle I was growing up
Wish you could've seen me, sress free
Drinkin' in the park again
A forty, a old E
We drinkin' like it's water man
At 16 this is all that I need
A sick scene, Couple friend ain't a problem to me
The simple life, Civilized
I wonder what it's symbolyzed
And all that crazy sh** we used to do
I wonder how we still alive
Cause I don't wanna be the one to forget your face
But everyday's a new day so it's gotta change

Today I buried a little dream inside of me
But somewhere deep down it stirred so quietly
I lost hope with the life I'm tryin' to leave
Promise me a little dream
You won't die with me
That just woke me up
Kept me going
Movin' on a dark night
Lookin' for a better day
Guided by the starlight
And every step I took it brought me to a better place
From the streets
To the show
Make it center stage
So i, remenisced yesterday for a little bit
About the days when the kids used to give a sh**
Careless, care free
Can you picture it ?
All these photos that I hold are a little gift
And just sittin' on my window seal
Black frame around your face
It's always there
So you never seem out of place
And I remember when we took it on that summer day
It makes me wanna start again and just run away
