I Remember When
I remember when
I was just a dude you knew from back then
I would question you with who, what, where, when
Truth or darin'
But you were scared of him
Said couldn't to what you can
I'm telling you, I remember when
We was at the store and kicked the guard in
Wanted something more than food stamps could lend
And blue fives, green tens
Then you stole, we ran
The rules just have to bend
I'm telling you, I remember when I was just a dude
Walked to school with, boy you called "friend"
Had some problems and I talked you through
Time and time again, you would ask me for
I was more like, "come on, climb in"
The boy you called "friend"
Sometimes, I pretend that it's after school
And you're in the room with me and my kin
We was acting a fool, ignoring the rules
Or in detention
And you were kind to "him"
And you told me then
That I was just your "friend"
I'm telling you, I remember when I was just a dude
Walked to school with, boy you called "friend"
Had some problems and I talked you through
Time and time again, you would ask me for
I was more like, "come on, climb in"
The boy you called "friend"
Said I remember when I was just a dude you walked to school with
Boy you called "friend"
Had some problems and I talked you through
And time and time again, you would ask me for
I was more like, "come on, climb in"
The boy you called "friend"
I remember when
The night before you moved to 310
We was at the shore, you booed and cried then
Do or dying
And you promised
I remember when
I was just a dude you knew from back then
I would question you with who, what, where, when
Truth or darin'
But you were scared of him
Said couldn't to what you can
I'm telling you, I remember when
We was at the store and kicked the guard in
Wanted something more than food stamps could lend
And blue fives, green tens
Then you stole, we ran
The rules just have to bend
I'm telling you, I remember when I was just a dude
Walked to school with, boy you called "friend"
Had some problems and I talked you through
Time and time again, you would ask me for
I was more like, "come on, climb in"
The boy you called "friend"
Sometimes, I pretend that it's after school
And you're in the room with me and my kin
We was acting a fool, ignoring the rules
Or in detention
And you were kind to "him"
And you told me then
That I was just your "friend"
I'm telling you, I remember when I was just a dude
Walked to school with, boy you called "friend"
Had some problems and I talked you through
Time and time again, you would ask me for
I was more like, "come on, climb in"
The boy you called "friend"
Said I remember when I was just a dude you walked to school with
Boy you called "friend"
Had some problems and I talked you through
And time and time again, you would ask me for
I was more like, "come on, climb in"
The boy you called "friend"
I remember when
The night before you moved to 310
We was at the shore, you booed and cried then
Do or dying
And you promised
I remember when
