lirik lagu feat anetra tonedeff – children (feat. anetra) – tonedeff
v1 (16)
one day you’ll look back at your life and wonder, like “what the f-ck was i thinking”/
puffing and drinking at seven – public delinquent/
setting yourself up for nothing, just loving life, cussing & beefing/
without knowing what to believe in/
or even care for that matter, cause you’re too young to be hunting for reason/
when school days are your function of meeting/
and looking back on the days when the term ‘back in the day’ wasn’t existent/
you wonder if who you were is who you are this instant/
cause when you’re 10 you’re not far from an infant/
or when prom could be listed down as your longest commitment/
sh-t, time has a wicked sense of humor that’s harshly s-d-stic/
it puts what you did wrong, in the distance by foggin your senses/
i harbor resentment for bandwagons, and tailgators,
braggart cats who ain’t graduate with a penchant for brand-fashion
little miss know it all b-tches, and bully–ss b-st-rds with bad manners/
so, if you can’t stand it, let’s demand action/
v2 (32)
you see – hindsight is 20/20 as motherf-cker/
some people never learn from others, cause they love to suffer/
i’m being real with y’all, i seldom bunch my tongue up/
yet, to this day, i never had the b-lls to say ‘f-ck’ in front my mother/
i’ve come to realize the world changes with every summer/
sundown to sun up, the seasons run out asunder/
i’ve seen the power of drugs, of greed and the violence of guns/
and the people somehow get numb, as evil devours the young,
with a feeble amount of love instilled in em,
meanwhile even teachers don’t wanna build with ’em/
but i realized that i can still hit em, and see inside where the chill bit em/
with heat provided by a lil rhythm/
i seek to guide whoever’s grippin for wisdom, i’ll do what i can/
cause i wished i received a bit a this, but i was doomed to withstand/
the unscrupulous manner in which i learned, with ruthless abandon/
now, due to demand, children behold the truth is at hand/
see, them cats you hanging with now, is who you are/
and they’ll become their parents, so look at them and decide if that’s who you wanna be/
honestly, think about their qualities,/
you’re probably exhibiting parts of these people’s behaviors chronically/
call me a saint to warn ya – see that b-tch that thinks she’s the sh-t
at 15 with the heaving t-ts, the type kids would just fiend to get/
will end up pregnant before she hits community college, broke and soon to be jobless
abused by the dude she gets high with/
see, little girls believe every love is true and it’s timeless/
till they get f-cked by ‘mr. cool’ and guess who ends up crying/
but guys ain’t no stranger to the forces of nature/
we’re only out for p-ssy, that’s why we split with no good reason to break up/
now, mr. popularity, is just that.
in 10 years, he’ll be mr. popularity with a bad job and a mustasche/
so, f-ck that socialite bullsh-t that they force upon you/
believe me, this is the exact course i’ve gone through.
break
fly your own way – do your own thing/
f-ck what they say – follow your own swing/
use your mind now – don’t get swept up/
use time well – don’t get kept up/
live your own life – get your taste right/
find your own vibe – f-ck what they like
don’t get caught up – live in your own skin
v3 (16)
see, most motherf-ckers are sheep, it was true then and it still is/
take away the uniforms, y’all will dress the same way to fit in/
nowadays i see ya, doing whatever you see on tv/
media brainwashed, buying a new trend every 3 weeks/
and you’re knee deep in cheap weed, liquor, there’s even std’s in pre-teens
it’s different now, so, f-ck whatever we think/
right? well, ya might be. things have only changed ever so slightly/
like, same jordans minus the swoosh from nike/
i see it’s worse then ever. there’s no respect and no thirst to endeavour/
just kids that want to be first in the center/
with no work ethic – to earn their own personal shelter,
bursting with pent up aggression, these are the things you observe as an elder/
cause when you grow it hurts to stay inside your sh-ll/
i’ll prolly rewrite this song in 20 years, and dedicate it to myself/
i guess the jist of it is, that when you’re big, you’ll just miss how you lived/
and when you’re a kid, you’ll just wish you were big/
so for now.
chorus:
why don’t you fly on by/
if your flock dives you’ll die
you can get up under the wind and glide away/
the sky is big enough for everybody.
you don’t have to live life the normal way/
just glide your own way.
