Be Something Lyrics by Memi

For The Little Things

2019

Black and yellow was his eye
When they caught him by surprise
In that hallway
Go on chase him down the street
Dirty clothes and clumsy feet
To the driveway, to the driveway

Mamma know he's out too late
Doing things he shouldn't do
Clever boy got time to waste
But nobody got time for school
Drinking up and smoke cigars
Knowing he'd be sick for days
Clever boy got time to waste
Clever boy got time to waste

And while his future just slips away
In baggy jeans and snapbacks
Dreams away
He'd never forget that wish he made
Years ago and high of hope
That he'll become something

Mmm, mmm, ooh
Mmm, mmm
Just grow up and be something

He was ready to ignite
Every time he had a fight
On the backyard
Pretty girls was not his thing
They would always make a scene
In the school halls, in the school halls

Mamma know he's out too late
Doing things he shouldn't do
Clever boy got time to waste
But nobody got time for school
Drinking up and smoke cigars
Knowing he'd be sick for days
Clever boy got time to waste
Clever boy got time to waste

And while his future just slips away
In baggy jeans and snapbacks
Dreams away
He'd never forget that wish he made
Years ago and high of hope
That he’ll become something

Mmm, mmm, ooh
Mmm, mmm
Just grow up and be something
Mmm, mmm, ooh
Mmm, mmm
Just grow up and be something
