We Used to Just be Kids Lyrics by Cheruue

Before I Leave

2023

[Chorus]
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Just a bunch of kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feelings still good
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Just a bunch of kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feelings still good
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
[Verse 1]
Rufio, he always tried to be cool
He used to hide who he was cause people are cruel
Rufio, thе smartest guy in the room
He always knеw what to say, he always knew what to do
But one night he got drunk and jumped off of the roof
And he died at the end of the ICU
Rufio, I'll see you soon
Rufio, I'll see you soon
[Chorus]
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Just a bunch of kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feelings still good
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Just a bunch of kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feelings still good
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
[Verse 2]
Naomi used to be the prettiest girl in the school
With the prettiest face and the skinniest waist then
Then she got older, wanted something to feel
She had to pay her bills and got addicted to pills
She OD'd in a stranger's hotel room And I still smell the scent of her rose perfume
She OD'd in a stranger's hotel room And I still smell the scent of her rose perfume
Naomi, I'll see you soon
[Chorus]
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Just a bunch of kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feelings still good
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Just a bunch of kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feelings still good
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
[Chorus]
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Just a bunch of kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feelings still good
We used to just be kids
We used to just be kids
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
We used to just be kids misunderstood
The streets are empty now, but the feeings still good
We used to just be kids in the neighborhood
Feelings still good
