Kids These Days – Doo-Wah lyrics
[Hook]
You fixed the present to the past
‘Cause you wanted it to last
You overdose some memories
Makes your mind so empty
So give up the act, you know we’re through
And there is nothing left to do
You found that I’m tracking nothing new
And that’s why I am telling you
No, no, no, no, no, no, no I never will go
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
That I never will know
[Verse 1: Vic Mensa]
Jimmy wishes he could have her back
But Jenny says she's had enough
He must have tried a hundred times
But something just ain't addin' up
She says all the times he lied
Would be hundreds if she'd add them up
He says shes a bitch and laughs
While all his homies dap him up
Now she goes back to school again
And he goes back to rappin' now
Heard she got a dude again
But you can't hear him laughin' now
See he's got women everywhere
He just isn't happy now
She just can't imagine
After everything that happened now
Now he back by himself now
Don't need nobody help now
Moment off a meltdown
But can't nobody tell now
See he just holds himself down
The drugs don't seem to help now
Used to hate the feeling
Really he just hates himself now
Don't feel the way he felt now
Sometimes he can't feel nothing at all
He stands tall
Just to hope he doesn't stumble and fall
Suspended in time
Like a clock stuck in the wall
Alone wishing' he had someone to call
Thinkin' I thought we'd be famous
Thought we'd be painless
But I learned my lesson
Learned my lesson
Learned to go through these changes
Go through these changes
And I earned my blessings
Earned my blessings
Man I thought we'd be famous
Thought we'd be painless
But I learned my lesson
Learned my lesson
Learned to go through these changes
Go through these changes
And I earned my blessings
Earned my blessings
Earned my
Earned my
Earned my
Earned my
Earned my blessings
When I was young I looked at my father
He told me truth will take you farther
And as you grow, oh it will get much harder
So hold on and tread the water
And he said
Remember your dreams
Remember your dreams
Remember your dreams
Remember your dreams
I thought we'd be famous
I Thought we'd be painless
But I learned my lesson
Learned my lesson
Learned to go through these changes
Go through these changes
And I earned my blessings
Earned my blessings
Man I thought we'd be famous
Thought we'd be painless
But I learned my lesson
Learned my lesson
Learned to go through these changes
Go through these changes
And I earned my blessings
Earned my blessings
Earned my
Earned my blessings
You fixed the present to the past
‘Cause you wanted it to last
You overdose some memories
Makes your mind so empty
So give up the act, you know we’re through
And there is nothing left to do
You found that I’m tracking nothing new
And that’s why I am telling you
No, no, no, no, no, no, no I never will go
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
That I never will know
