Go Back

[Intro: Struggle Jennings]

From time to time I look back

I go back

[Verse 1: Struggle Jennings]

Uh, there was somethin' special 'bout the times that we had

Our loved ones in the penitentiaries, couple in rehabs

We each had, same opportunity, now he mad

'Cause I been doin' good since coming home lookin' like He-Man

I heard that she mad, 'cause she ain't had me at my best

Life gave us different lessons, I guess we ain't passed the test

There's a reason everything happen

I bought another ticket for the ride

This time the seatbelt's fastened

Thinking back I loved them days, I wouldn't change a thing

'Cause life is evolution, had to fall to spread my wings

Now I soar through the clouds with the woman of my dreams

I go back from time to time to see the beauty chaos brings

[Chorus 1: Jelly Roll]

I wish that I could go back

To the times that we was younger

And we ain't had no worries at all

I wish that I could turn back

The hands of time and freeze 'em

But it's more than a clock on the wall

We used to roll all night and just get blow

Back and forth over those train tracks

We was young, dumb, and broke

Didn't wanna go home

Man I wish that I could go back

That I could go

[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]

Young, dumb and broke just tryna get out the hole

The sound of a tortured soul it's water boilin' on the stove

Mama singin' "Ooh child, things are gon' get easier"

Meanwhile I'm 'bout to move out thinkin' I ain't in need of her

Sixteen with a chip on my shoulder, I couldn't budge

I thought I was a grown man and so did the judge

Now I'm ridin' reminiscin'

Thinkin' how I overcame challenges

Wish Ice Mike woulda listened

'Fore they gave the man all them calendars

Reece just did 18 years, he's home and he's feelin' fine

But he wasn't even 18 year old when that man committed that crime

And I'm just ridin', rotatin' right now and I'm reflectin'

I might roll one up and have a freestyle session

[Chorus 1: Jelly Roll]

I wish that I could go back

To the times that we was younger

And we ain't had no worries at all

I wish that I could turn back

The hands of time and freeze em

But it's more than a clock on the wall

We used to roll all night and just get blow

Back and forth over those train tracks

We was young, dumb, and broke

Didn't wanna go home

Man I wish that I could go back

That I could go

[Bridge: Struggle Jennings]

You know I'm blessed to be where I'm at

Never thought that we'd make it this far

And I love where I'm at today

But some days I just wish I could go back

[Chorus 2: Jelly Roll]

I wish that I could go back

To the times that we was young

We ain't had no worries, none at all

I wish that I could go back

To the hands of time and freeze

But that's more than a clock on the wall

[Chorus 1: Jelly Roll]

I wish that I could go back

To the times that we was younger

And we ain't had no worries at all

I wish that I could turn back

The hands of time and freeze 'em

But it's more than a clock on the wall

We used to roll all night and just get blow

Back and forth over those train tracks

We was young, dumb, and broke

Didn't wanna go home

Man I wish that I could go back

That I could go
