When We Were Kids

[Verse 1: Drapht]
Yeah, uh, see. To me, a lie and a young start to my crew
Only comfortable at my drunkest, drink 'cause I never knew how
To conversate, communicate without the booze out
If I knew what I knew now, wouldn't have ever known
What amount of alcohol could ever help me
In my room, my Humpty Doo house
Go with you the twin towers melting
Done the alkane and LP change
Everything better than any medicine that could derange
I reign the Pale Rider
Mr D-rapht, the name's sustained from days of a graff writer
Know what? Saba Indians on the internet
Start it, you better finish it
Are you a target of a star-picket after they
Picking it off a picket fence?
No ignorance on these street smarts and vigilance
No time for bickering, time ticking away
Remember like it's yesterday

[Hook: Drapht & Dazastah]
Remember? We were kids, just living like kids
What did we miss? Never thought that it would come to this
We were kids
We were kids
'Cause we were kids, just living like kids
And we were fish out of water but thought we were kings
We were kids, life for some can be hard and selfish
We were kids, you gotta make the most out of the cards you're dealt with (we were kids)

[Verse 2: Hunter]
My flat, top of the block
You know the door is always open, ain't no need to knock
Got hip-hop posters, flyers plasting the wall
Over time we doing these shows, man, rocking them all
Crew would rock up. Commence the drinking the Recard
And any second, second stubby freezed offside for start
And we be laughing, dreaming of making a CD
Believe me, back then, it wasn't that easy
Let the DL grow darn, had so much fun
Shows interstate, SBX be number one
When it comes to rocking shows and flows
And I suppose I seen pain as the city style grows
And those who dropped off, surrended their lost off the scene
Never again to be seen
But if you follow your dream, like chase it, grab it
Make it your habit, like, know you gotta have it

[Hook: Drapht & Dazastah]
Remember? We were kids, just living like kids
What did we miss? Never thought that it would come to this
We were kids
We were kids
'Cause we were kids, just living like kids
And we were fish out of water but thought we were kings
We were kids, life for some can be hard and selfish
We were kids, you gotta make the most out of the cards you dealt with (we were kids)

[Verse 3: Dazastah]
Yeah, when we were so young growing up with the world in our palms
While other crews acted like a bunch of girls in the dark
The main go with Jonah Holmes, kills and focus the art
Hunter run-off apartment, filled from those from the heart
Remember the smoking, the laughing, the omens that past
Searching for crumbs strapping the resin, the hope for a blaster
The teacher said, we were hopeless in class
Who would've thought that we really knew, we chosen the path
And now I flip back, trying to drink as much as I could
Going against the grain like a plane cutting the wood
Learnt the blunt truth, gotta sharpen up on the good
And now I'm straighter than a hammered nail stuck in the wood
Locking the hood and the dodgy places I came from
Now the spirit of life has got me dating a seance
Getting my ground, trying to save place in this little sun
Trying to escape the hectic fast lane without the brakes on
Trying to slow down and not get the pace wrong
Demons in the mirror still want to face off
I'm reminiscing about the days that I came from
'Cause Syllabolix is what I'm made from

[Hook: Drapht & Dazastah]
Remember? We were kids, just living like kids

We were kids, life for some can be hard and selfish
We were kids, you gotta make the most out of the cards you dealt with
'Cause we were kids, just living like kids
And we were fish out of water but thought we were kings
We were kids, life for some can be hard and selfish
We were kids, you gotta make the most out of the cards you dealt with
