Back To That
When I was in school I'd doodle shit on my folder
When I was young I'd always wish I was older
But take me back to that
Only worry was passing math
Being a grown-up ain't fun as it seems
Pay the bills every month, work 50 hours a week
Why'd I wish away my past?
Take me back to that
When I was a kid, I'd play outside with my neighbors
Thought it was the shit that my dad had a pager
And everyday was fun
Spent my summers out in the sun
Go to school at 8, I'd be out by 3
Yeah gym was my life, you couldn't force me to read
With my friends all day at school
Trying to prove that I was cool
Those days were freakin' great
But I wished 'em all away
Youth's a gift that you're getting once
Why's it wasted on the young?
When I was in school I'd doodle shit on my folder
When I was young I'd always wish I was older
But take me back to that
Only worry was passing math
Being a grown-up ain't fun as it seems
Pay the bills every month, work 50 hours a week
Why'd I wish away my past?
Take me back to that
Don't get me wrong, I love getting a paycheck
But I miss the days when I had nothin' to pay, yeah
My town was my world alright
Couldn't talk to the girls I liked
But I didn't care, ball was life with my bros
White boy without hops, still thought I'd get to the pros
Thought my future would be so bright
Now I pray that I was right
Those days were freakin' great
But I wished 'em all away
Youth's a gift that you're getting once
Why's it wasted on the young?
When I was in school I'd doodle shit on my folder
When I was young I'd always wish I was older
But take me back to that
Only worry was passing math
Being a grown-up ain't fun as it seems
Pay the bills every month, work 50 hours a week
Why'd I wish away my past?
Take me back to that
When I was young I'd always wish I was older
But take me back to that
Only worry was passing math
Being a grown-up ain't fun as it seems
Pay the bills every month, work 50 hours a week
Why'd I wish away my past?
Take me back to that
When I was a kid, I'd play outside with my neighbors

Why'd I wish away my past?
Take me back to that
