NOSTALGIA

Living too fast Still in love with the past Life's short cherish your time These moments won't last Know it all will end And when the curtain is drawn Like dusk from dawn Now your memories are gone Living too fast Still in love with the past Life's short cherish your time These moments won't last Know it all will end And when the curtain is drawn Like dusk from dawn Now your memories are gone Maybe it's guns and drip I should be talking about Or selling drugs, sleeping around and bragging for the clout True to me the essence of my form Is dropping knowledge on your head to Keep your soul warm Keep your heart throbbin Never was one of the cool kids Studious, but not the best student I kept the guitar occupied and my mind high Spirit of Mary Jane just to get me by Towne Park the roots were the love of knowledge grew After dark when my mama's house parties were through I was gonna anyway, idle hands love to play, like the devil would say and you know I wouldn't stay So Me and Jay, Steve and B-Mo Ran around the neighborhood gettin in trouble Drinking everything in sight Music up all night back when things was alright I wish those summers would never end Living too fast Still in love with the past Life's short cherish your time These moments won't last Know it all will end And when the curtain is drawn Like dusk from dawn Now your memories are gone Living too fast Still in love with the past Life's short cherish your time These moments won't last Know it all will end And when the curtain is drawn Like dusk from dawn Now your memories are gone The dust of an old era, swept under rugs, Excitement of your youth fades, caught up in drugs And some will never clean it up, get lost and die young Never to witness another setting of the sun I cherish them days, my first tat at 17, Never crossed my mind two years later a murder scene Obscene, it's like time is greedy, back when days was easy, but you took it for granted Disenchanted with adulthood, it's no good To dwell upon the past, rose tint it never lasts So keep the memories alive, live in the moment, your life you gotta own it, got a skill you better hone it Like a candle burnt from both ends, you waste your time When you don't define, what meaning is for your lifeline I don't wanna beat a dead horse, but of course, I gotta drive the message home, fire straight into your dome Life's short cherish your time Woah
