Teef Sweat - Dried Coffee Beans lyrics

We used to be cruisin through traffic Then it went to bein ruthless with Blunt pa**es Tricks on lock, goin to find new spots The only beef we got was from the Cops Ridin' miles just to get to the park Skatin all day, spittin' fire after Dark That was the routine, before I blew rings Then everything changed after I got Into new things Wastin time on dimes, & cuttin ties With homies that used to ride, & We used to grind Then I flipped sides, to the middle like primo Started looking behind, to the Back like Ringo Saw everyone change from the get Now I wish I would've never pa**ed the Spliff When I did, personalities went & changed up Now we can't even relate on The same stuff Now, half my homies are grads I see in a year, ill be walking that path Gown & a cap, or a frown & a flask Cause I see that my past, is down Like the mats But what will the future withhold? Hopefully somethin fresh, gained by Mentos Cause I don't wanna get old, reminded that High School was the best, as Provided fact Used to plan until I learned the unexpected Was earth's way of making a Contraceptive At least I ain't got kids or doin a bid Or movin some bricks, to buy my own Kicks The old days are nonexistent I stayed the same cause I ain't kickflippin' Used to go where I please, now I ask permission Every day used to feel like a New edition Where has the time gone? I was once a child Who believed the lies long & Looked at the bible Who loved his momma more than rap verse recitals Who went to comic stores & didn't know of crack vials Who wrote to no beats, now he's makin his own Never had cold feet, shouldered stayin alone Playin the station, like it was Pelham in the 80's Listening to breaks, by Yella & Shady Makin Mixes, of Public Enemy & Tribe On the fences, he could always Rely On the expression, when his dad never Left them Messages, conversations or collections
