Back in the Day Lyrics by Black Pegasus

Robert Houston

2017

[Intro]
Uh-huh, yeah
Black Pegasus
BKG until the death of me, yeah
I'ma give you all a piece of my heart real quick
Take y'all on a trip, you know what I mean?
Yeah, check this out, yo, uh-huh, yeah
[Verse 1]
I was young, dumb and full of cum, it's funny (Ha-ha)
How you could fall for that thing under that honey bun (Bun)
I was a dummy, huh, always runnin', huh
Disregardin' your feelings for the money, huh (I know)
I was just a young boy tryna become a man (Man)
I guess there's things in this world I'll never understand (Uh-uh)
But the feelings were real, and the cards, they were dealt (Dealt)
I loved you in that moment, in the heart it was felt (Heart felt)
But after months, huh, I know I'd drift away (Away)
At house parties, yeah, I let the kid and play (Yeah)
And then I'd come back like it was all good (All good)
You have a chip on your shoulder 'cause it's a small hood (Small hood)
See, I would get around and never settle down (Uh-uh)
I held the strings to your heart like Geppetto now (Geppetto)
I never realized the power in my hands
But that was back in the day, I never had a plan
[Chorus]
Back in the day, I wasn't rappin' this way (Uh-uh)
Back in the day, I'd go to class with a A (Uh-huh)
Back in the day, I'd see some ass and I'd say (Ayy)
"What up, sexy girl? Bring that action to me" (Uh, come on)
Back in the day, I wasn't rappin' this way (Uh-uh)
Back in the day, I'd go to class with a A (Uh-huh)
Back in the day, I'd see some ass and I'd say (Hey)
"What up, sexy girl? Bring that action to me" (Uh, come on)
[Verse 2]
Yo, yo
I was deaf, dumb and blind (Huh) to all the signs (Yes)
Young love is dumb love, not all the time (Uh-huh)
Thought you were all to mine (Yes), but I would fall behind (Uh-huh)
Insensitive to your heart, I crossed all the lines (All)
But you would wait for me (Wait), give me another shot (Shot)
But I was in love with the lifestyle, it's all I got (It's all I got)
That's all I thought so I focused on it (On it)
Not concerned with your feelings or emotions on it (Uh-huh)
We were good for each other, how could you be patient?
I wanted you for myself plus be a free agent (Uh-huh)
But it don't work like that, it goes both ways (Yes)
It takes two to tango on the cold days (Cold days)
Trapped in my old ways, I never got it right (Uh-uh)
Plus those girls on the dance floor look outta sight (Outta sight)
Then we had a fight, you had to let me go (Go)
I should have told you the truth, I'll never let you know (Know)
[Chorus]
Back in the day, I wasn't rappin' this way (Uh-uh)
Back in the day, I'd go to class with a A (Uh-huh)
Back in the day, I'd see some ass and I'd say (Hey)
"What up, sexy girl? Bring that action to me" (Uh, come on)
Back in the day, I wasn't rappin' this way (Uh-uh)
Back in the day, I'd go to class with a A (Uh-huh)
Back in the day, I'd see some ass and I'd say (Hey)
"What up, sexy girl? Bring that action to me" (Uh, come on)
[Outro]
BKG until the death of me
Uh-huh, yeah
BKG until the death of me, yeah, yeah, yeah
Thank y'all for listenin'
Much love, like—
