Verse 1: Yo, I was born in the year, two thousand and six,
Kickin' it old school, yeah, I’m mixin' the tricks.
Grew up with the flip phones, not a touch screen,
We were livin’ the dream, playin’ Sega and the Wii.
Throwback to the MySpace, with the profile glow,
AOL chat rooms, where we used to throw the flow.
Bustin’ out the Walkman, listen to some tunes,
No Bluetooth, just wires, under those neon moons.
Cartoons on Saturday, that’s how we rolled,
Yu-Gi-Oh cards, man, the power we controlled.
iPods in our pockets, but the tape decks stayed,
Blockbuster Fridays, man, I miss those days.
Chorus:
2006 kid, livin’ free, never quit,
Back when life was simple, yeah, we rocked it legit.
From the schoolyard to the street, we kept it lit,
2006 kid, yo, you know we never missed.
Verse 2:
Skateboards on the pavement, we were catchin’ all the tricks,
But the real MVP? That Nintendo DS fix.
Playing Mario Kart with the squad late nights,
Pokemon battles, man, we felt so tight.
Watchin' MTV, no skips on the jams,
Lil’ Wayne on the radio, yeah, we were the fam.
Soulja Boy told 'em, “Crank That” with the moves,
Back when viral was just, "Hey, what’s the news?"
Clothes were baggy, with the chains on our neck,
Frosted tips on the hair, man, what’d you expect?
We were young and wild, livin’ carefree,
Spinnin’ records, on the decks, with some old-school beats.
Chorus:
2006 kid, livin’ free, never quit,
Back when life was simple, yeah, we rocked it legit.
From the schoolyard to the street, we kept it lit,
2006 kid, yo, you know we never missed.
Bridge:
Now we grown, but the memories never fade,
MP3’s still bumpin’, in the playlists we made.
From MySpace to Facebook, we made the switch,
But that 2006 vibe? Still keeps us rich.
Verse 3:
We got that nostalgia, man, it’s all in the air,
Retro vibes, throwback shirts everywhere.
From the Razor flip, to the Sidekick text,
We were ahead of the game, always what’s next.
We had Tamagotchis, and we’d keep ‘em alive,
Now we just reminisce, and we take that dive.
It’s the 2006 kids, forever in the zone,
No matter where we go, we take the past along.
Chorus:
2006 kid, livin’ free, never quit,
Back when life was simple, yeah, we rocked it legit.
From the schoolyard to the street, we kept it lit,
2006 kid, yo, you know we never missed.
Outro:
So here’s to the days that we can’t rewind,
But in our hearts, that 2006 vibe will always shine.
We’re the kids of the past, but the future’s our grip,
Throw your hands up high for the 2006 trip!
