Remember When

Remember when When it was 1992 Two little kids stealing records, skipping school We must have been like only ten Taking life for granted till we learn it had an end (Remember when) And time is something they say You never appreciate till you age And to this day you never knew I wanted to be just like you If I only knew then what I know now Then what I know now If I only knew then what I know now Then what I know now Remember when When it was 2002 You started slinging coke and got the dopest pair of shoes But yo, this house just ain't a home Since our father hit the bottle and our mother hit the road And time is something they say You never understand until it slips away And looking back I think you knew I wanted to be just like you If I only knew then what I know now Then what I know now If I only knew then what I know now Then what I know now And now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the sirens And it's better me, better me than you Now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the sirens And it's better me, better me than you Slipping and we're falling, slipping and we're falling through ice Slipping and we're falling, don't know where we're going with our lives If I only knew then what I know now Then what I know now If I only knew then what I know now Then what I know now Now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the sirens And it's better me, better me than you Now I'm tired of the violence I'm so tired of the sirens And it's better me, better me than you (Remember when) Slipping and we're falling, slipping and we're falling through ice Slipping and we're falling, don't know where we're going with our lives Slipping and we're falling, slipping and we're falling through ice
