(Remember when)
When it was 1992
Two little kids stealing records skipping school
We must’ve 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 til 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
Home
Since our father hit the bottle and our mother hit the road
(Remember when)
Time is something they say
Never understand it until it slips away
And looking back I’m thanking you
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
Slipping and we’re falling slipping and we’re falling
Don’t know where we’re going slipping and we’re falling
Slipping and we’re falling
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
Slipping and we’re falling slipping and we’re falling
Don’t know where we’re going slipping and we’re falling
Slipping and we’re falling
