Lyrics to 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 niggas 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
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 niggas 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)
