Dreamin' of Days - Pat D/Shaheen.mp3

[00:00.000] 作词 : Lady Paradox/Pat Dooner
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Pat Dooner
[00:22.477]Back in the day, we used to love staying up late
[00:25.240]Now we can’t sleep tryna find ways to escape
[00:28.013]And these days that usually consists of building a spliff up
[00:31.897]Or drinking till we stop thinking and drift off
[00:34.160]Anything to escape the feeling
[00:36.821]Stressful weeks played into hazy weekends
[00:39.829]Tryna shake the demons of wasted seasons
[00:42.597]A long way from younger days spent dreaming
[00:45.621]Of what we could be, the possibilities were endless
[00:48.383]Now we got responsibilities to contend with
[00:51.280]Chasing wrong agendas, running ‘round in circles
[00:54.516]Living our lives, showing a lack of virtue
[00:57.019]Like hip-hop, far from what they claim in a verse
[00:59.774]It's either bangers or merked or mates getting murdered
[01:02.987]It feels like we changed for the worse
[01:04.993]Wish I could go back to the best days on the earth
[01:08.476]
[01:08.918]Chorus (Izzy G):
[01:09.545]What happened to the days back then?
[01:15.394]When LA Gears were the latest trend
[01:21.141]We’d sit in the park all day
[01:27.044]Sipping on our lemonade
[01:30.267]Verse 2 (Lady Paradox):
[01:31.168]Back then I guess it was less complex
[01:34.055]Cereal and cartoons, wondering what’s on next
[01:36.813]Now we’re so far removed and it’s all a contest
[01:39.700]And there’s too much to do and worries on our chest
[01:42.585]Back then there was no stress listening to cassette tapes
[01:45.911]And lay in my house was known as the rest day
[01:48.628]Didn’t have to think about needing to get paid
[01:51.263]As things rearrange I guess you learn to accept change
[01:54.274]Those were the best days sipping Um Bongo
[01:56.946]Girls in the park playing How Does the Song Go?
[01:59.955]Bright colored ponchos sitting in the treetops
[02:02.713]Wearing high knee socks with Blackcurrant freeze pops
[02:05.600]Nowadays I feel lost, I guess time changes
[02:08.389]From thinking you could be anything like Power Rangers
[02:11.291]Now it’s all faded, friends become strangers
[02:14.180]We strive to escape this and who can really blame us?
[02:17.319]Chorus (Izzy G):
[02:18.120]What happened to the days back then?
[02:23.965]When LA Gears were the latest trend
[02:29.775]We’d sit in the park all day
[02:35.668]Sipping on our lemonade
[02:39.228]Verse 3 (Lady Paradox):
[02:39.729]Nowadays, I end up feeling so confused
[02:42.403]Don’t take a lot to rock my mood
[02:43.907]All I've got is to consume
[02:45.415]I remember sitting chilling with a bowl of Fruity Loops
[02:48.419]My mind would be amused as I watch the Looney Tunes
[02:51.308]Think of something cool to do like fly in a spaceship
[02:54.273]Brought back to earth by the thought of a pay slip
[02:57.033]Used to be a crazed kid imagining great places
[02:59.792]Greener trees, better scenery and smiling faces
[03:02.552]Verse 4 (Shaheen):
[03:02.952]As time races, life seems less enticing
[03:05.587]I used to love watching WWF at night then
[03:08.597]Hulk Hogan got replaced by Mike Tyson
[03:11.355]Moved from High Tecs onto white Nikes and
[03:14.430]Back in the day, we used to like fighting
[03:17.064]That was messing around but now he might knife him
[03:19.947]It’s quite frightening the way things changed
[03:22.713]I wish that they could’ve stayed the same
[03:25.339]Chorus (Izzy G):
[03:26.843]What happened to the days back then?
[03:32.487]When LA Gears were the latest trend
[03:38.041]We’d sit in the park all day
[03:44.190]Sipping on our lemonade
[03:47.576](Lady Paradox):
[03:48.590]I wish we could go back to the easy times when we didn’t need rhymes
[03:53.980]And I wish we could go back where the skies were bright and everything seemed nice
[03:59.751]Now I wish we could go back to the easy times when we didn’t need rhymes
[04:05.264]And I wish we could go back, and I wish, wish, wish, wish
