Days of My Youth 2 - Napoleon Da Legend

Days of my Youth 2

Back in the days when I was young

All we knew was sneaking out of school

And acting dumb

Chasing these broads to get the buns

Spit rhymes play ball it was so much fun

Reminiscing on

Napoleon Da Legend

How you rise to your potential in the midst of crime central?

Wanna borrow games?

how about the 5 that I lent you?

We gonna run it back minus Malik on the team

He be turning the ball over and his defense is weak

Feeling chic high top sneaks with extra large jeans

After ball we pushing weights I did my set to Mobb Deep

Paul’s a hater had Decepticon and Autobot beef

His game was garbage probably studied tapes from Olden Polynice

Stretch marks between my shoulders and chest

I’m getting bigger mad at myself

When I would miss Rap City with Big Tigga

Most the girls would claim they were virgins like Richard Branson

Rocked the strength shoes and

Worked on my footwork like Barry Sanders

Rushing to grow up would fantasize on hitting clubs up

Most of the decent girls in school were acting stuck up

You know what?

all this rejection built up my character

Flew overseas it hit me damn I grew up in America

«You ain’t got a job Tommy!»

Now he’s resting in Peace

She gave me a hug and a kiss what an affectionate tease

She was 3 years my senior yet she recognized my genius

Big homie scooped me up his whip had extra large speakers

We would analyze flics like Juice and Menace to Society

Bragging about the chicks he pulled that sucka used to lie

That’s his prerogative like Bobby remember Bell Biv?

Selfish for life T was allergic to shell fish

Copped a Bath Ruth and a 64 ounce slurpee

Favorite color was blue I used to hate Bobby Hurley

Nothing personal I was a Terp cops came we was alert

Jessica was teasing me to death she was a flirt

Scotty used to cheat he used to sneak to smoke weed

They sent his ass back to Gabon that’s a country overseas

I had the crazy handles used to watch Childress Randolph

And write breakthrough lines like Ernest Byner on the hand off

The Wizards were the Bullets Manute Bol would shoot 3s

My mentor was Ron Williams I was told to do me

Doc’s Gym Iverson used to come with Norris Moochie

When you dropping 27 a game you getting groupies

I loved it Naive showing affection out in public

Thought she loved me, that reality check was the roughest

Dreams of playing at the Rucker

Conversations were like «How we rank among the best in the nation?»

Slam Magazine Hip-Hop quotables in the Source

Rocking Illmatic in a Walkman portable of course

Used to watch Beavis and Butthead what a horrible show

How I grew to be a man only the oracle knows it goes…

Back in the days when I was young I’m not a kid anymore

But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again
