Remember When

(Remember when) When it was 1992 Two little kids stealing records, skipping school We must have been like only ten Taking life for granted 'til we learned it had an end (Remember when) Time is something they say You never appreciate till you age Until this day you never knew I wanted to be just like you If I only knew Then what I know now Then what I know now If I only knew Then what I know now Then what I know now (Remember when) When it was 2002 You started slinging coke and got the dopest pair of shoes We owe this house a state of home Since our father hit the bottle and our mother hit the road Time is something they say You never understand until it slips away And looking back I think you knew I wanted to be just like you If I only knew Then what I know now Then what I know now If I only knew Then what I know now Then what I know now And now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the silence And it's better me, better me than you Now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the silence And it's better me, better me than you Slipping and we're falling We're falling through ice Slipping and we're falling Don't know where we're going with our lives If I only knew Then what I know now Then what I know now If I only knew Then what I know now Then what I know now Now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the silence And it's better me, better me than you Now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the silence And it's better me, better me than you (Remember when) slipping and we're falling We're falling through ice Slipping and we're falling Don't know where we're going with our lives Slipping and we're falling And we're falling through ice
