lyrics

[VERSE 1]
Ayo I wanna take it back, to when I used to drink a lot

Wake up and not remember what I did a lot

Back when I was too young to buy a liquor bot

And had to ask somebody else to go in the shop

They were them days that I miss a lot

Responsibility now, stress, I take it back to kill it off

So if I’m driftin off chillin with a grin it’s coz

I’m thinkin of them times, man they really was a gift from God

We used’ta smoke a little buddha by the skate park

Grownups in the area used to hate us

It was cool, hip hop connected dudes from different schools

And brought us all together so we could roll as a single crew

It wasn’t just hip hop, nah it was drinkin to
o
Smokin weed, skateboardin, chasin chicks with boobs

You know all that mad fun shit the kids’d do

Before we had to switch into career mode and fill them shoes

Meetin the lads down the park to sink a few

Back when Elsie was mixin his own ginger brew

We’d party til the cops came, then we’d kick it to

The next location to continue getting friggin loose
!
Runnin from cops, cuttin across

Fields, creeks, bushes, the kicks’d need a scrub and a wash

Arrive at the next spot, still buzzin like what
!
They was them old school days yeah, and fuck they was hot


[CUT CHORUS]

[VERSE 2]
Back when we was little cool bandits
Gettin kicked out of school dances

Not a care out, makin parents tear hairs out

We used to get up to the sickest shit

I’m talkin bout when our phones was big as shit

But still weren’t considered bricks

Freestylin in the backyard, drunk spittin shit

Props to Buer, hands down he was the king of it

Drunk off goon sacks, and suckin the fumes back

Classy I know, but the truth it got ya loose as

Apologising the next day, coz I was too trashed

Denying I hooked up with that bitch, man she was too fat

Why are you mad? I know most of yall’a done it too

Matter of fact, I had that shit done to me by one or two

Memories of just hangin, with a bunch of the crew

Catching a bus to some dude’s party who none of us knew

Or piling-in the maxi taxi, drunken

Still remember the adrenalin of when we jumped em

Speakin of jumpin we used to crash in the school gym

On high jump mats and break in with that dude Kling

I remember they took the bad dudes from class at school

Put us into the one, like that was the smartest move
..
Back when I got home so late, my folks thought I was early

Back when I didn’t have a car, I was walkin the journey

Back when I’d link with Lflows for parties

Grab a bottle of Old Crow and go halvies

[CUT CHORUS]

[VERSE 3]
We in the party now, rockin to the atmosphere
Chillin round the back, hangin loose on plastic chairs

You know the point, where you’re finishin your last pour

Bout to make a start on all them beers that aren’t yours

A certain chick walks in and you notice her

You seen her around school but never spoke to her

But now that you got a little rum and coke in ya
It’s gonna happen, just gotta wait for the moment ta
Walk up, smoothly and say something slick

But on your way over, all you do is stumble pissed

And when you go to speak, all you do is mumble shit

Plus you’ve even bumped and spilt your drink over the stunner’s kicks

Plus you ain’t looked nowhere but her tits

For real, ain’t even looked up once and it’s

Obvious to everyone that you’ve fucked it big

But what they don’t know, ya luck is in, she dug the kid

For a while she’s had a real big crush and it’s

Just then when you reach in and bust a kiss

She tastes of bubble gum, it’s funny how you notice it

When you’ve been drinkin loads and you’ve been smokin shit

Ya still kissin her, grinnin out the back of ya head

A sick night, and you managed to get

The hottest chick in the whole place, your friends goin, oh great, yeah
Take me back to the old days

[CUT CHORUS]

[OUTRO]
Yeah, I think back to them days I really miss them days
I think back to them days I really wish them days
Would come back around so I could relive them days
But I can’t relive them days so I gotta miss them days
(repeat)
