About

Escaping Youth is off Awon’s 2014 album Matte Black Soul.

According to Awon, “The song is about the personal struggle of aging. Hair being the metaphor for youth in this sense outlines the feelings of a man that feels like his window of opportunity is closing in Hip Hop.”

Escaping Youth Lyrics

[Produced by Phoniks]

[Verse 1: Awon]
They know Awon
From the microphone
I get loose
But they ain't know that Boochie said
I had sunroof
Not on my coupe yo
I'm talking George Jefferson
My shit is thinning
Diarrhea of my hairline
My barber give me mad effort Fam
Imaginary lines like the youngest child of mine
And I'm am from the durag era
Rocking 360 waves
Chicks used to say
I look like Nas with a fade
Back in my younger days
I used to hit Kunyri Kutz
Catch Rome and sit under blades
Cause I was in the Hunger Games
Fresh Cuts will get you laid
Clean like listerine
Had them brods
Chasing sausage hard
Jimmy Dean
The kids call me sir
They don't even know I rap
Cause I'm in fresh Kicks
A white tee and a matching cap
It's a midlife crisis
That I still get a cut
Is it my hair or my youth that I can't give up?

[Hook]
We used to play out in the rain
Your mom was scolding us
She said that we were bad (she said that we were bad)
I thought I'd rather go alone
Who once till I was gone
Oh girl you look so sad

[Verse 2: Awon]
Early in the morning
And when I see my face
I shampoo my beard
And notice a couple grays
Is the fast life catching me
Or am I getting old
Sometimes I feel like my flesh
Is now speaking to my soul
I understand my purpose
And as long as the earth twist
I'm here to tell the truth
Until I'm underneath the surface
On whatever medium
The antithesis of skinny jeans and shirts that's smedium
Awon bout as real as they come
Can't even shop they blogger hog
They on some hype shit
The masses touch it
The streets don't trust it
That's some life shit
I'm on to bigger things
Dot com is stressing me
The industry is full
Of lames on coke and ecstasy
Learned my lessons
Never front
Vaporize I'm done with blunts
Even the sneaker game is weak
I ain't cop nothing in months
It's a midlife crisis
That I still get a cut
Is it my hair
Or my youth
That I can't give up

[Hook x2]
