Description | In one of his most emotional songs, Krit reminisces about the good ol' days back when he was a child and his grandmother was still around, having no worries or concerns except the petty frustrations of being a kid. This track comes from Krit Wuz Here, his first “real” and breakthrough album that put him on the map. It samples Willie Hutch’s “The Shortest Dance” off of his 1970 album Season for Love, which provides the luscious bluesy backdrop Krit’s production is known for. |
Lyrics | [Hook] I wish I was a kid again Runnin' with my friends an' them, up n down the streets Waitin' on a bell to ring Ridin' on a school bus, drawin' on the seats On the phone all night with a girl I like and she claim she a freak It's straight, I could never go back I would never go back, but it would be coo' to see [Verse 1] Rise n Shine Get up off my ass and mash fo cash No time to procrastinate Yeah I'd ratha' drink a 40, but that'll have to wait I ride a bucket, kinda rusty, but I'll blast the bass On the road again For the pros within The block used to be sunny but they snowed it in Now tha junkies scrape change for tha dollar menu That's what he said, but tha rock is what he really into Gave him a dollar anyway, cause who knows? Maybe tha dope boy baby need some new clothes Cause we all goin' thru it No matter how you view it Slice it, cut it, bring it back and screw it! Hot as I've ever been, but I'm coolin' - out AC neva works, so my windows - down Not worried, kids scurry Saturdays Reminiscing, Good Lord, how I used to run and play Sometimes... [Hook] I wish I was a kid again Runnin' with my friends an' them, up n down the streets Waitin' on a bell to ring Ridin' on a school bus, drawin' on the seats On the phone all night with a girl I like and she claim she a freak It's straight, I could never go back I would never go back, but it would be coo' to see [Verse 2] Grandma Linnie on the go Cookin' in the kitchen, somethin' good for my soul G-I Joes all on her living room flo' It seems like yesterday, but she passed so long ago, Good Heavens I want to go to church, but ain't no good reverends She prolly frownin' on me now, because I know betta But I push on, searchin' for some cush-on To pay the bills and responsibilities that I disown Not a pot to piss in, a tree to piss on The devil come around to much, I'm hollin' get gone But its hard to get off, when you can't get on I pour my life on this wax, nobody lis-ons So I cruise, me and just my blues Lookin' at the world through my broken rear view Not worried, cuz I pray for betta days Reminiscing, Good Lord, how I used to run and play Sometimes...

I'm waitin on what's next [Hook] I wish I was a kid again Runnin' with my friends an' them, up n down the streets Waitin' on a bell to ring Ridin' on a school bus, drawin' on the seats On the phone all night with a girl I like and she claim she a freak It's straight, I could never go back I would never go back, but it would be coo' to see |
