Nostalgia pt.2 by HelioS (rap) Lyrics
Chorus
Kids: The man came to our house and knocked on our door
He said he had tried but he'd take it no more
The world was beautiful; our building was not
The Man: "So tell you what, I'll take it and fix it up"
Kids: Yeah, we could trust that smile...
Just right for drowning us in the Nile/denial...
HelioS: Ok, this is how it went...
The man came to our house and bust in the door
He lied that he had tried but he couldn't anymore
The allure of big business was just too much
So he'd sell the house: kick his guap up a notch
Yeah, kick his guap up a notch, kick his guap up a notch
Verse 1
So he sent in his soldiers to "HURRY IT UP!
THROW THEIR STUFF OUT IF THEY WON'T PICK IT UP!
I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE RELATED, YOU KNOW THE DRILL!
MARCH RIGHT OUTSIDE AND YOU'LL SEE HOW THEY'LL FEEL!
Scared that these dogs just might not heel
Rip them to shreds and still walk out free
So you know they'll only take the bare necessities
When they realize their life might be in jeopardy
Chorus
Kids: The man came to our house and knocked on our door
He said he had tried but he'd take it no more
The world was beautiful; our building was not
The Man: "So tell you what, I'll take it and fix it up"
Kids: Yeah, we could trust that smile...
Just right for drowning us in the Nile/denial...
Shh, this is how it really went guys...
The man came to our house and bust in the door
He lied that he had tried but he couldn't anymore
The allure of big business was just too much
So he'd sell the house: kick his guap up a notch
Yeah, kick his guap up a notch, kick his guap up a notch
Verse 2
So we moved to a new and improved place
Really just a nice word for the change of pace
"Ok, we've got water but what about the light?
I haven't watched Ben 10 yet and you know that ain't right!"
Yeah? well get ready for misery kid
Cuz you won't get water for the next three weekends
You'll have to fetch water from a well
And get it up so watch out for the steps!
The man came to our house and-never mind
We all knew the truth, he was never kind
He was in cahoots with the private guys
So we might as well stop it with the lies
But still, it was not that bad
On a hot day, sleeveless shirts were the fad
I'd turn the corner to get some shade and sweets
From the Mallams who set up shop from up the street
If you kept walking, you'd reach a round clearing
It's where all the shops are if you lost your bearings
The internet cafe on the right, the barbershop on the left
How I miss those days, surprisingly they're my best
My favorites, I can see it all now
The arcade always with the large crowd
The store where I got my Harry Potter cards...
Me: The man came to our house and knocked on our door
He opened it and I kicked him in the balls
The world was beautiful and he was a sore
So I pushed him off the floor; he won't bother no more
Kids: The man came to our house and knocked on our door
He said he had tried but he'd take it no more
The world was beautiful; our building was not
The Man: "So tell you what, I'll take it and fix it up"
Kids: Yeah, we could trust that smile...
Just right for drowning us in the Nile/denial...
HelioS: Ok, this is how it went...
