Back In the Day (feat. Porsha Myers)

Family cook out
Soul music with the soul food
Grown folks teaching the kids
The electric slide
Remember when we use to hoop
Behind the middle school
Summertime on the block
Errybody out
When blacks couldn't go
To the public swimming pool
Back then you either ran or you fight it out
Yeah I was young
I never did expect to see it change
Don't mind me
I'm reminiscing on back in the day

Sunday afternoon pleasant grove
Use to be the spot
Afterparty at the apple
PG pirates get the win
Can't forget the times
Living in the creek
As a kid
Candy lady selling ice cream cones
For fifty cent
We use to steal penny candy
From Tom Jones store
Kickball in the street got
The whole road closed
Me, Pop, Flip, Brian and Travis
We use to walk to school
JR the only 8th grader
Ever drove to school
And at the age of 15
I got my first piece
She was in 12th grade
Ready to graduate
The good times
No I can't let it fade away
Don't mind me
I'm reminiscing on
Back in the day

Family cook out
Soul music with the soul food
Grown folks teaching the kids
The electric slide
Remember when we use to hoop
Behind the middle school
Summertime on the block
Errybody out
When blacks couldn't go
To the public swimming pool
Back then you either ran or you fight it out
Yeah I was young
I never did expect to see it change
Don't mind me
I'm reminiscing on back in the day

Growing up yeah back in the old days
You got to understand it now
Is not the new wave
Ride it out, fight it out
And understand about the price
If you don't stand for something
You will fall for anything
Back in the old days
If you don't stand for something
You'll fall yeah for anything
Back in the old days
Remember grandma
Cooking that good chicken
On a sunday
Ayyyye eeeee
Remember grandma
Cooking that good chicken
On a sunday
Ayyyye eeeee
0h, back in the old days
Back in the old days

Family cook out
Soul music with the soul food
Grown folks teaching the kids
The electric slide
Remember when we use to hoop
Behind the middle school
Summertime on the block
Errybody out
When blacks couldn't go
To the public swimming pool
Back then you either ran or you fight it out
Yeah I was young
I never did expect to see it change
Don't mind me
I'm reminiscing on back in the day

I know where angels get they wings
But how does time Fly
It's crazy how people die and the days
Disappear
Can somebody please
Tell me where that time go
The good times, the family times
Even the hard times
Let me say my goodbyes to the ones
That ain't here no more
Bring back that sad times for the ones
That ain't here no more
Think they deserve time
To see
How it all done changed
It all seems like yesterday
But been so long ago
Can't never let it go
I can't let it fade away
Don't mind me
I'm reminiscing on
Back in the day

Family cook out
Soul music with the soul food
Grown folks teaching the kids
The electric slide
Remember when we use to hoop
Behind the middle school
Summertime on the block
Errybody out
When blacks couldn't go
To the public swimming pool
Back then you either ran or you fight it out
Yeah I was young
I never did expect to see it change
Don't mind me
I'm reminiscing on
Back in the day

Back in the days
Back in the day-ayyyes
Back in the days
Back in the day ayyyes
Back in the days
Back in the day-ayyy-ayyyes
Mmmmmmmm,
Growing up, growing up back
In the old days
Growing up, growing up back
In the old days
Growing up, growing up back
In the old days
Ayyyyeeee,
Growing up, growing up back
In the old days
Back in the old days
Back in the old days

Family cook out
Soul music with the soul food
Grown folks teaching the kids
The electric slide
Remember when we use to hoop
Behind the middle school
Summertime on the block
Errybody out
When blacks couldn't go
To the public swimming pool
Back then you either ran or you fight it out
Yeah I was young
I never did expect to see it change
Don't mind me
I'm reminiscing on
Back in the day

Back in the days
Back in the day-ayyyes
Back in the days
Back in the day-ayyyes
Back in the days
Back in the day-ayyy-ayyyes
Back in the old days
