Mike Boyd - Yesterday lyrics
rate meI was born with the sign of a Cancer and the mind of a champion
With plans to win a whole hand of rings like…
So we wonder where the message was left, who’s connecting us
Too much static in check and just recklessness
Glad we got the guap now for Lexuses and necklaces
But too many dead fly end up Pegasus
Too few get wise, sending out death wishes
Yo, first peep beneath the surface, check the x-ray
Be your help, get your head straight like a neck brace
Don’t lose heart unless your chest cave
Take steps even when your legs ache from now till you dead weight
Doctor Sk sending shouts back east…
You make me feel like it’s yesterday
You break my heart from the things you do
You make me feel like it’s yesterday
You break my heart from the things you do
I remember it like yesterday
Seventh grade, just a little boy, feather weight
Should’ve made better grades, teachers try to educate
But teachers couldn’t reach me, I was dreaming in a better place
More concerned with press and play, I’mma tape that
Had a whole deck of tapes plus VHS
Yes, pre-recorder rap cities, way before black hippies
Back when I always had my backpack with me
I was two strapping and juice packing it…
Acting too cool for school, rolled up tube socks with a boom box
Playing my music loud, broadcasting it like…
Acting like I’m too hard and your whole crew was too soft
A few too many loopholes but I moved on
I’m finally kicking ownership, my old love, my new job
And I think that I can roll with this
You make me feel like it’s yesterday
You break my heart from the things you do
You make me feel like it’s yesterday
You break my heart from the things you do
See, when I told them I would get it, never listened
I did the same things to my critics, though, they never listened
So now I’m here and every time I’m in the room
I feel the stares but I already know it’s coming
It’s like judicial, I’m on a mission to make a million before I’m 30
It’s for my team, my family and for those who heard me
You thought I was cool to listen to and you passed on the word
‘Cause in a world of entertainment that just means I’m worthy
I thank you ‘cause I’m just doing what I can do
Was never into sports and forget the court
Tried to shoot a few hoops in basketball and looked like a damn fool
But I always knew my rhyming shit was none to fuck with
And I cry like the Flintstones got cancer
I’m just a kid at heart, I view this shit as art
It’s just a part of my life that I just give to y’all
It’s just my little song, go ahead and sing along
You make me feel like it’s yesterday
You break my heart from the things you do
I got visions…40 acres of land, rocking with a cold can
…wash it down with the Vicodin
All these years my wife will still have the tightest skin
…it’s a miracle Jesus turned water to wine
…this rap shit is all an eternal grind
I’m tryna live, more work, less talk…
You make me feel like it’s yesterday
You break my heart from the things you do
You make me feel like it’s yesterday
You break my heart from the things you do
