[Hook] If I could go back, and talk to me at 17 I dunno know what I would tell him to change Of course, I got regrets but they could be for the best They made me what I am today Then again, I had mistakes that would prove to be great Maybe my decision making was a matter of fate Matter of fact, I think... looking back is amazing ... I think that looking back is amazing [Verse 1: MD] When I was 17 I thought I met the girl of my dreams Turned 18 and seen it that she wasn't for me Had carefree living with the difficult times Thought that I flew up in the sky with the world at my feet My environment was one with fake IDs Busted house parties, Xbox, and PS3s Damn, no denying that some lessons were learnt Momma said don't fuck around and get an HIV Shoot, you'd probably think that it'd be different by now I think some parts remain the same, but shit is difficult now Or maybe... I'm just lazy; it's ridiculous now How I see a different world whenever leaving the house Over the past couple years... I've had bad dating Started rapping more, and bailed a few times skating Mixing in with all the arguing with parents, It's apparent Being 17 was something I would cherish [Hook] [Verse 2: MD] When I was 17... watching celebrities Talking 'bout their memories at 17 on MTV I used to think... what'll be my story? I'm almost 20 now, reflecting like I just turned 40 Pretty funny how we're seeing ways that life's so short But it's the longest thing that ever in sight I know that 17 feels like it was ages ago But could've sworn 17 was last night That goes to show the dichotomy that presents itself When measuring experience of yesterday Or years ago; it seems near, but never been this far It's the memories we got that make us feel so close Uh, you can quote that. Take a note that I'm sorta reminiscing back in these dope raps I think it's crazy; had to make in a line, I Throw my watch in the sky, thinking time flies [Hook] [x2]
