[Intro]
Yeah, we all got stories,
From the dust of the playground to the hustle in the streets.
Let’s take a trip back,
It’s a journey through time,
Come ride with me, let’s rewind.
[Verse 1]
Late nights on the block, me and the crew rollin’,
Underneath the streetlights, dreams unfoldin’,
Skateboards and BMX, feelin' so alive,
Childhood memories, we learnin’ to survive.
Hopscotch, tag, yeah, we owned the street,
Sneakin’ out late just to feel the heat.
Parents callin’ us home, but we’re feelin’ like kings,
With our backpacks full of hopes, let the freedom sing.
[Pre-Chorus]
Times were simple, worries outta sight,
Chasin' clouds and dreams under the moonlight.
From the swings to the skates, we were limitless,
Now we grew up, but never lost the kid in us.
[Chorus]
Childhood dreams, livin’ in black and white,
Teenage schemes, paintin’ over with neon lights.
From the playgrounds to the city blocks we roam,
In a heartbeat, we’re young, in this world, we found a home.
[Verse 2]
Fast forward, now I’m in high school halls,
Trippin’ over lessons, busy breakin’ down these walls.
Got my first crush, heart racing on speed dial,
Wishing on stars, yeah, we’d laugh and compile.
Chillin' in the cafeteria, livin' so carefree,
Mix tapes and daydreams, that’s the life for me.
But the world’s gettin' heavy, stress creepin’ in,
Hustlin' for grades, it’s a battle I can’t win.
[Pre-Chorus]
But when I put my headphones on, I escape the grind,
Back to those park days, gettin’ lost in my mind.
A blend of laughter, sorrow, joy, and the fight,
A symphony of memories that shine in the night.
[Chorus]
Childhood dreams, livin’ in black and white,
Teenage schemes, paintin’ over with neon lights.
From the playgrounds to the city blocks we roam,
In a heartbeat, we’re young, in this world, we found a home.
[Bridge]
Let me take a moment, ‘member those days,
Chasin’ wildflowers, lost in a maze.
Yeah, time moves on, but I hold on tight,
To the echoes of laughter, still livin’ in the night.
[Outro]
So here I stand, caught between two worlds,
Young boy who used to dream, now a man with goals.
But beneath it all, I’ll never let it fade,
The heart of a child, never plan to trade.
