| When we were young, everything was so new
|
| We broke all the rules just to do it
|
| And I don’t know how the hell I lived through it
|
| Young and on the run, getting loaded like a gun
|
| When we were young
|
| Now time sure flies when you’re having fun
|
| I wish I walked through life but I chose to run
|
| I used to fien for abuse and play with guns
|
| I played and payed the price, stil my life ain’t done
|
| I remember running wild, not a care in the world
|
| It was all about graffiti, and chasin' the girls
|
| Running from the law and bar room brawls
|
| Getting arrested callin' home with those late night calls, (When we were young)
|
| Sorry mom, I’m in jail again
|
| Tonight I got arressted with a couple of friends
|
| You can either pick me up or send me some mends
|
| Either way ma, it looks like I messed up again
|
| Back to my P.O., or Rehab, or up north, to see dad
|
| It’s just the way it goes when you were born to be bad
|
| Actin' a fool, skippin' school, flicking off the principal
|
| It’s hard for mom to believe me but she’s so convincable
|
| Shoplifting gifts for the girls, with my boys
|
| Walking out the sex shop, pockets full of sex toys
|
| And, we’d bring the noise like you’d wouldn’t believe
|
| At 16 started getting tattoo’s up my sleeve
|
| Throwing up the 32, taking part in dirty deeds
|
| So if you wanna get high, I got whatever you need
|
| And if you wanna get em' up, I ain’t afraid to bleed
|
| I’ve been to Y.A. |
| 3 times, so don’t you step to me
|
| While you brag to your parents about your A’s and B’s
|
| I was underneath the bleachers with a THC
|
| A GED, a Chemical Dependency, and a PHD in Whiskey and Stonerology
|
| I lead the breakthrough in ways to use technology
|
| You can learn from my mistakes but it’s more fun to follow me
|
| And it’s never too late, I don’t hate who I’ve become
|
| So let’s smoke another one and remember, when we were young
