1999 Lyrics by Jay Portal

BROODY

2022

[Bridge]
This ain’t
What i thought it would be like
Back in 1999
Wish i was still that innocent
Nowadays it only seems
The only way i could achieve
That type of bliss is ignorance
So drink with me
And forget all about your problems
Once you get that high once
You might never stop no
That type of high that makes you feel just like a child
Woah
[Hook]
This ain’t
What i thought it would be like
Back in 1999
This ain’t
What i thought it would be like
Back in 1999
[Verse]
I think my memories getting worse
I bury everything that hurts
I keep on growing out my shirts
My mama said im getting taller
Bottle my psychosis
Freezing all of my own emotions
You just gotta be man about it
Listen to your father
Hold me
Don’t hold me down
I been lonely & lost
But maybe i don’t wanna be found
Hold me
Don’t hold mе down
I been lonely & lost
But maybe i don’t wanna be found
[Bridge]
This ain’t
What i thought it would bе like
Back in 1999
Wish i was still that innocent
Nowadays it only seems
The only way i could achieve
That type of bliss is ignorance
So drink with me
And forget all about your problems
Once you get that high once
You might never stop no
That type of high that makes you feel just like a child
Woah
[Hook]
This ain’t
What i thought it would be like
Back in 1999
This ain’t
What i thought it would be like
Back in 1999
