I'm in the back
Mamma's driving 'round
I've been learning my raps
Doing it for all these different reasons
I love the way it feels
And now I'm inside
I'm listening to Nas
Illmatic it's somantic
I'm not a fanatic
But I'll listen out of love
Lately I'm digging
Free your mind and treat it kindly
Ten years old I was unbothered
Spent my hours in the garden
I was alright
Black album I've been listening to Jay-Z
Every day pushin' in my CD player
Listen like I'm insane
It's the same each time I do it
Oh ain't no skipping through
Skipping
True I was in a new phase
T.I just came with Paper Trail
And we got"Tha Carter III" from Wayne
808's from Ye
This was a simpler time
Simple days 2008
Now my life's moving too fast-paced yeah
So I'm taking it slow
I've been moving much too fast
I'ma free my mind and treat it kindly
Ten years old I was unbothered
Spent my hours in the garden
I was alright
But I never gave up my love
I studied it all day long
Coulda been into sports but
That's not where I belong
It wasn't until right now
Looking back over nuance
I was gonna be here somehow
Do not wanna say"I knew it" but
I did my young self proud
Yeah yeah yeah
Now I'm taking it slow
