Chance The Rapper - Nostalgia Lyrics
[Intro][Verse 1]I still got orange and white cassette tapesTents where my neighbor came to spectateNiggas that’s tough now used to get little in the darkIt’s all cool now, we’re all little kids at heartAccident prone Chance, y'all remember 'boutThe time I cracked my head open at Auntie Linda’s HouseFrom diapers to outfits to castles to ElmosFrom Santas to Grandmas to Gameboys and cellphonesRocked your world, fourth grade talent showJada and Justin’s birthday magic showGames of tips taking niggas to schoolTwo quarters and I’ll bust your ass at pool, on bullRound here we lose best friends like every weekI like to think we playin a long game of hide and go seekAnd one day maybe I’ma find Terrance and I could lead themKids of the Kingdom singing about freedom[Hook]Heads down, eyes shut, time to play Seven UpHeads bowed, hands clutched, bottles gone, Heavens upSmiles come through, though my eyes might cryWhen they reminisce over you, my God[Verse 2]Let’s take it back like Indian giversTo Indian burns and Jiminy CricketsTo the smell of Pillsbury on biscuit morningsTo puffy wintercoats and Christmas morningsI used to chill with the kids next doorAnd SpongeBob came around 'bout fourAnd then I’d hang with Bart’s guysAround the bend was Smart GuyFlipping through the picture booksChecking through my archivesRemember the old days, the ones you’ll never get backAt the end of parties, passing around gift bagsNow we blow entire O's at one kick backMY$FITS and mismatchThat get off like wristslaps[Hook][Verse 3]Remember Jeepers and Odyssey Fun WorldYoung pimpin' like you oughta see one girlMama Jann, mama Charlie, and my mama LisaBooster seat used to boost my kitty, Connie's PizzaAnd every year we made a Christmas listAnd Auntie Linda cooked a Christmas dishAnd all of our grandparents made a Christmas wishLike “Lord, let me see another year like this”[Hook]
