The Outfit - Now & Then lyrics

[Verse 1:The Outfit] When I was smaller, couldn't wait to get taller Just to get the joint jumping like the great fat [?] (twalla) Sometimes I got in trouble when I played outside Like the streetlight came on and I stayed outside I don't wanna play with matchbox I wanna have a book of matches with a [?] when I'm hanging at the rap spot A little below'it all, acting twice my age And still playing video games twice a day I'm tired of being tagged along The young boy they drag along Maybe I'll get my props one day for the way I rap a song Enough with these grown things I can't wait to grow a little bit And let the world know my name No looking back for me It's elementary This young boy life just wasn't meant for me I'm too sophisticated I'm doing [?] I'm too damn grown while I'm sagging my pants [Hook 1]: [The Outfit:] If I could move time forward I would grow up really quick Never look back and do some grown man sh** [Jas Mace:]If I could push time back I'd do it all again times ten Like how I did it way back when [The Outfit:]If I could move time forward I would grow up really quick Never look back and do some grown man sh** [Jas Mace:]If I could push time back I'd do it all again times ten Like how I did it way back when [Verse 2:Jas Mace]: I wish that I could go back Back to the days when everything was so easy And responsibilities wasn't weighting on my shoulders 'Cause now I'm overwhelmed by bills It s**s being older Me and the homies used to walk the streets carefree With no worries But being home when the lights came on Should'a seen the struggle in my father's eyes Those were the days When I only cared about video games How I missed the old days playing hide and go get it Now they hide and we get it The disease without a remedy Now we run a risk of catching felonies No more smack on the wrist They put a cuss on that b**h Took a lot of things for granted Like little bit gains Things ain't the same It's a shame And I can't stand it I guess I got a manage 'Cause ain't no turning back the clock on this crazy a** planet [Hook 2]: [The Outfit:]If I could move time forward I would grow up really quick Never look back and do some grown man sh** [Jas Mace:]If I could push time back I'd do it all again times ten Like how I did it way back when [The Outfit:]If I could move time forward I would grow up really quick Never look back and do some grown man sh** [Jas Mace:]If I could push time back I'd do it all again times ten Like how I did it way back when
