Just gotta lean into it But I know I'll get through it These days are filled with trouble And the nights feel like they're all getting longer These days are dark and gray Like that storm rolling in across the water There's a strong wind blowing I push on

These are the good old days And I wish that I could stay These are the good old days (these are the good old days, yeah) It's all good right now I don't really know why, I don't really know why But these are the good old days Oh, I'd like to stay I wish

Hold up, walking on a tightrope How could I switch on you? This the only thing I know Stay down and be loyal, now we ballin' like the pros Remember when I used to sit and plan it with the bros Nowadays I'm just sellin' out these shows She tell me that

Oh Lord, when will the road run out I'm on the road but I'm in doubt And I don't know why, still I second guess my pace If I stand to lose from winning To find the truth I'm willing To start back at the beginning of the good ol' days The good ol' days

And that sun is shinin' down On all my darker days They're comin' to me now As I hear the preacher say In the name of the Son and the Father Got a whole lot of years And a whole lot of pain And it all got me here Where the river meets the clay

Second floor of my hotel I'm rollin' up bout' to blaze It's on now To this Frankie Beverly and Mase As our days about to pass And our days in the past He said my mind free So my mind free at last

I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know So when I see you nigga it's gon' be a homicide So Ima let this flame hit you just to let this pain hit you And for all them cloudy days Ima let this rain hit you nigga You ripped my family

And there ain't no way Forever and for always We will be together all of our days Want to wake up every I'm lettin' you go now I'll never see that day Cause I'm keeping you Morning to your sweet face, always And there ain't no how

I need serenity And when will we learn to control Where do we go when we just don't know And how do we relight the flame when it's cold Why do we dream when our thoughts mean nothing In a place where I can hide Nothing changes, days go by As I sit here

You made it You played it Your shit is overrated Worn out and faded The weakness starts to show They've created the generation That we know Washed up and hated The system moves so slow
