Gold days Give them away The whole town was burning, burning, burning Gold days Give them away The whole town was burning, burning, burning
Riding in this hooptie with the rust stains Trying to get a buck off of this cocaine I'm day dreaming all day, hoping that I can wake up Lounging in my castle with the windows all draped up And my pockets all caked up, no stress Guess I'm gonna have to wait until I'm dead to get some rest huh You know the mirror never lies My girl giving me hell because I ain't hearing her cries She call me 5 or 6 times on the phone and I ain't replied I'm a young man with dreams, nothing in between I told myself one day that I would understand the bigger scheme If you come from where I came from you know what I mean Those were them
Gold days (I could never) Give them away, away (I made sure) The whole town was burning, burning, burning (Those were them) Gold days (I could never) Give them away, away (I made sure) The whole town was burning, burning, burning
Sunny weather, people with you when it's clouds they run for cover The one that stood beside me was my motherfucking mother Moving on to better days, put my kids through college Your mind is young, copping Jordans, eating chicken wings Trophy case filled, you fucking with a winner I'm at a roaring boil, other suckers simmer You see my shirt it's expensive like the dinner That's why I rock a bib motherfucker because it's linen I only talk about what I know and some other shit You on some angel eyes, sneaky undercover shit Intricate plots constructed during boredom I'm in the streets from Kissena out to Fordham Peace to my family I hold you down forever I love my children's mother even though we're not together All I ask is honesty, ayo honestly Fuck around and we could've been a dynasty
