Yesterday

Yeah

Philly corners in the summer, water plug turnt up

Anybody walk by, everybody wet up

Sis just got her hair done nice, don't wanna test her

Heard she knocked a young bull out that disrespect her

Ah-ah, block parties turn to house parties

'Cause when it's dark, that's when **** get to actin' funny

And then the neighbors call the cops 'cause we was too noisy

But they was just outside actin' cool with us

And we live careless, not a bill to pay in a world we call our own

Oh, it was all so simple, where'd the time go?

Like when I look back at it

Feels like it was only yesterday

And life was so easy yesterday

If I had a chance to do it again

I'd do it the same, the joy and the pain

The coldest of winters, the summer time rain

No, I wouldn't change none of my yesterdays

I remember when I was young and irresponsible

Tried to do the things haters said would be impossible

But I wanted more so fatefully I chased it blindly

Wanted to soar so I let go the pain behind me (Hey-hey)

Could never afford shit, now I'm livin' gorgeous and my family supportin' (Oh-oh)

I know what’s important, live life to the fullest

Stay on point like a bullet (Hey-hey)

And we live careless, not a bill to pay in a world we call our own

Oh, it was all so simple, where'd the time go?

Like when I look back at it

Feels like it was only yesterday

And life was so easy yesterday

If I had a chance to do it again

I'd do it the same, the joy and the pain

The coldest of winters, the summer time rain

No, I wouldn't change none of my yesterdays

Yesterday's gone and tomorrow's not promised

And now I see that livin' for the here and now

The future looks more clearer now

It's good to reminisce

When I think back on when we played freeze tag and jump rope

Them old folks would smoke then get big mad

Talking 'bout we talkin' back, serious as a heart attack

But we ain't want none of that

Feels like it was only yesterday

And life was so easy yesterday

If I had a chance to do it again

I'd do it the same, the joy and the pain

The coldest of winters, the summer time rain

No, I wouldn't change none of my yesterdays
