#1997 Lyrics by Alumni Rick

0

Chorus:
#1997. This is when I was made, 2016 #Graduation. This when I was raised. From the hood, to my days with my Parent and they tell em to stop playing these mind games with their babies cause.. (This is my childhood. This is my childhood.. I don’t wanna be like them. So they hate me like they should.) 2x

Verse 1:
You so shy. You always cry. You’re so kind. You’re going blind. But in time. You will fight. All the fears that you got inside. This yo life. Here’s ya' light. Know your rights. You’ll go high. touch the sky. you will fly. Say goodbye. Fix your tie

Tell me why. Asking why. In the meantime it feel like I’ma to lose my mind

Because I stayed played. No playstation. Tryna' count dog days. Dalmatians

No 101. One to none. They, Got me twisted like braids. So my head gone numb. Tell me to break bread. i’m left with a crumb. Girls hit on me like a snare on a drum. But my youth leader telling me ”run boy run!” Cause i’m the type of man they want a kid from

Then that’s 18 years of my life wasted.. With a girl’s body that was x rated.. That’s so basic. I hate it. Should have waited. But that cake I tasted

Now i’m stuck with a poverty child.. But the real wife walking down the aisle.... Wait what!?... Nightmares are wild…. So back to reality

They don’t know what I did to get here. I’ve worked alone till I met people that know the reason why i’ve been weird

Cause they love my motive. Don’t know what I did to get here. I’ve worked alone till I met people that know

Chorus:

I don’t wanna be like them. So they me like they should...

So they hate me like they should

V2: Shout out to the class of 2016. Posed to graduate in 2015. Started school late but i’m okay. Okay. Not hot and ready so it’s cold play cold

Better than never like cops... People done asked me when the tape gone drop. Bro chill, just wait on it like drake. Cause I started from the bottom now i’m here like a tube sock

No crop top. You don’t take me to the heart. You should’ve been there when i was ready at the start. But you missed roll call so you never played your part. So it’s your fault. Or it’s my fault. Let’s restart. Let a make default

Cause thanksgiving year-round I got a lot on my plate. But I starve instead for the hopeless sake. You don’t know my story, you don’t what state that i’m in

Tryna' build these kids, not the men. Cause these men busy acting like kids. But I check myself that's a vendetta. Cause I was once a kid cause back then

So I'ma better myself by leaving myself. I'm looking for redemption. Farewell my lower class men. This is my graduation

Chorus:
