Back n tha Day Lyrics by KeneddyTheDon

SoSaysThaDon

2017

[Intro]
Let it breath
Yeah
Lemme go ahead and take y’all back for a second
C’mon
[Hook]
Back when I had to fend for my own
I had no homies to help me out, no females to hold me down
Retroactive poison fuckin’ my brain
This ain’t no cry for help, but I can never be fully sane
[Bridge]
I’m just the dust that’s in wind
(I'm just the dust that's in the wind)
If I could rewrite my life, it would never begin
[Verse 1]
Back when being myself was not cool
I did not notice until I went to middle school and found myself drowning
Lookin’ like a fool
My social habits were non-existent
Blame it on the environment that I was raised in
It would take a while before I had to change it up
Rebellion followed suit
I swear my family thought I would go and loot
Like I’ma start gankin’ like, “Run it up”
Like I’ma wear a hoody in the cut with a Mac-10 aimed at your cranium
In all blue Chucks, or we wearin’ Palladium
I was always the type of nigga with no vertebrae
I believe it was my teacher from 2nd Grade:
Patronizing like I’m not comprehending
No uplifting the gifted, she condescending, G
[Hook]
Back when I had to fend for my own
I had no homies to help me out, no females to hold me down
Retroactive poison fuckin’ my brain
This ain’t no cry for help, but I can never be fully sane
[Bridge]
I’m just the dust that’s in wind
(I'm just the dust that's in the wind)
If I could rewrite my life, it would never begin
[Verse 2]
Back when our pants was saggin’
As a matter of fact, it was baggy from ’07 to ‘09
Sophistication was not our minds
I mean, I was always poetic
But, I never intended to utilize it with the kinetic energy that's produced by the lips
That pen on that paper put me in bliss
It’s therapeutic
It’s a solid replacement to niggas feuding, shooting
Killing their own kind
I finally found a reason to keep my cohesion to Earth and really being alive
Back in a time when I was runnin’ out of options, because I believed I had nothing to offer
Either I went to college with a scholarship or I played the politics that’s workin’ against me
[Hook]
Back when I had to fend for my own
I had no homies to help me out, no females to hold me down
Retroactive poison fuckin’ my brain
This ain’t no cry for help, but I can never be fully sane
Back when I had to fend for my own
I had no homies to help me out, no females to hold me down
Retroactive poison fuckin’ my brain
This ain’t no cry for help, but I can never be fully sane
[Outro]
I lay in wait ‘til my soul decays
Don’t look so concerned, I swear I’m okay
I just gotta accept the way it’s played
Even though it’s fucked up I get no say
I see the Reaper, he’s closing in
Say a prayer before I lose again
I found it hard – I find it hard to go on when you lack the will to live, to live
To live, to live
To live, to live
