I wanna go back

Do you remember (ooh)
How we'd gather 'round and sing all day? (ooh)
I wanna go back (go back...ooh)
To playing basketball and football games
I wanna go back (go back...ooh)
To yesterday but it's not the same

I think this songs speaks out to a lot of us that recently got kicked in the ass by the big foot of reality. I know for me it does. Everyone was so easy and chill back then. Go to school and fool around. Even though we dreaded the hours we slaved in school, we wouldn't get out of school til 4, haha. Afterwards we just kick it in our home away from home, the cage. Where we need no mat because we got 10 foot stairway to heaven by skateboards while miko is tagin the backboard kind of love, yeah I don't know what was trying to say back there, i was trying to pull off a francis. As our days turn into nights, each night we dine in Wendy's. That's where we wasted countless hours of trivia, art attack by salt, hey lawrence can you refill my cup? kind of love, and eating that snack attack with lettuce, mayo, ketchup, bbq sauce, and endless amounts of tissue. We probably destroyed a whole jungle.

I must say, once I knew my new life was going to start, I didn't think I'd like it. I like it, but I don't enjoy it. Does that make any sense? Let me break it down for you. It's like going to high school. You like it because you see all your friends and students you see everyday. But you don't enjoy it because most of the time you're in class doing work; you'd rather be skipping with your friends playing pool at king's clubhouse while eating sushi from sushi train. Anyways, I like it, but I'm still unsatisfied. Like something is missing. Everything is good for me. School I'm doing alright. Family has never been this close, ever. Friends are there for me even though you don't see them as much anymore, they're still my friends. I've been so busy lately with so many things, yet in the back of my mind theres this unsatisfaction. It's just another thing to solve.

But yeah, I'm nostalgic.

Hey, yeah the one reading this, have you noticed that I use songs as the way I feel or think? Well, lets just say, I'm too timid to show/tell how I feel so I let songs(other people) express it for me. Anyways, enjoy the song and click readmore for lyrics.

PS. remind me to do something artistic or adventurous or something out of the ordinary

Oh yeah, yeah I love John Legend. He's the best.

Oh do you remember (ooh)
When the family was everything? (ooh)
Oh do you remember? (ooh)
It was so long ago and so much has changed (ooh)
I wanna go back (go back...ooh)
Wanna go back to those simple days (ooh)
I wanna go back (go back...ooh)
But now we've grown and gone our separate ways

(aah)
Times is hard (times is hard)
And things are a changin'
I pray to God
That we can remain the same
All I'm trying to say is our love don't have to change
No it don't have to change

Do you remember (ooh)
Back at Grannie's house on Christmas Day? (ooh)
Help me sing...
Do you remember (ooh)
How we'd gather 'round and sing all day? (ooh)
I wanna go back (go back...ooh)
To playing basketball and football games
I wanna go back (go back...ooh)
To yesterday but it's not the same

Times is hard (times is hard)
And things are a changin'
I pray to God
That we can remain the same
All I'm trying to say is our love don't have to change
No it don't have to change

Times is hard (times is hard)
And things are a changin'
So I pray to God
That we can remain the same
All I'm trying to say is our love don't have to change
No it don't have to change
