lyrics

me and my niggas played football at the bus stop
talked about everybody till the bus stopped
at school, breakfast time stealing juices out the lunch line
think i got caught 1 time
talked about the night before in our own section
bell ring no pass, hope they not checkin
ran through the whole school
now my face sweatin
either that or end up in detention
we was little dudes new to middle school
lunch time was tight, but taking recess wasnt cool
had a crush on this girl names houa
my hands was stretched out if anyone stepped to her
all my bros thought she was cute
go figure, but it was tight cause she liked one of my niggas
really into girls dont know why
cause 6th grade sex was not on my mind

CHORUS:
fit anywhere you take me yo
born 3 years out of the 80's bro
cant tell you bout you cause i dont know
but i can say that growing up was crazy yo

remember when we used to chill in the hallways
best time cause every class took all day
im not going back, thats what we'd all say
but when the teachers came, we was on our way
couldnt afford text, so we passed notes
do you like me, circle yes or no
and it was all good, till my time come
i couldnt say no, i was the nice on
and i was kind of fat, yeah chubby kid
but like mike jones, they aint like me then
and i forgave a lot, but i aint forget ,
kept that in mind, when i was picking chicks
they gotta turn me on, yeah hit the switch
im in my fucking zone, like hour 6
that was gym class, i seen the fat ass
in the gym shorts, and i was liking that

CHORUS:
fit anywhere you take me yo
born 3 years out of the 80's bro
cant tell you bout you cause i dont know
but i can say that growing up was crazy yo

im a new kid, that was in the past
i got my name up, i stepped my game up
they say i changed but, i aint really changed much
i just passed you if you on the same stuff
gotta keep it real, thats just how i feel
young fresh prince, word to uncle phill
and if you knew me back then nigga whats the deal
and if you acting like you know me guess its love still
and i been on the grind, since 4'9
had me dreaming bout the money at nap time
and sorry if i passed and you missed it
i told you i'd make it and you did not listen
you ears should wear a suit cause i talk business
and if you on some kid shit you might not get it
you ears should wear a suit cause i talk business
and if you on some kid shit you might not get it
BOW

CHORUS:
fit anywhere you take me yo
born 3 years out of the 80's bro
cant tell you bout you cause i dont know
but i can say that growing up was crazy yo
