NOSTALGIA by Keeve Lyrics
[Chorus]
Nostalgia, what is good for?
Re-re-reminiscing, back on the years for
Old times sake, we look back on it smiling
Make no mistake, we were laughing and crying
Not a care, for the people or the world above us
We were dumb, but that’s why we had a ring above us
We were young, didn’t care that people loved us
We were wrong, now we askin' what they thinking of us
[Verse 1]
It feels like I can’t keep a topic straight
I climbed my way to the top but in shape of a figure 8
We never could see the day that we received a say
In a different form of affection
Which way the wind goes makes it blow in every direction
We can wish it but
It’s just a vicious cycle, it’s got continuity
But each day there’s something different, it’s still so new to me
That’s the way life been going lately
Feels like every day been crazy
Feels like every fate’s been painted
But I conceived a notion
We’re just seas and oceans
Floating along until we can seize the moment
Wrote up this song
While each day seems to grow longer
We have to stay strong
If we let the isolation define our vacation
We’ll be no better than the issues that seem to predate us
We gotta keep our heads together, six feet apart
We gotta find a way to keep our family out of the dark
Or we’ll end up six feet under, yeah
And right back at the start, aye
[Chorus]
Nostalgia, what is good for?
Re-re-reminiscing, back on the years for
Old times sake, we look back on it smiling
Make no mistake, we were laughing and crying
Not a care, for the people or the world above us
We were dumb, but that’s why we had a ring above us
We were young, didn’t care that people loved us
We were wrong, now we askin' what they thinking of us
[Verse 2]
My momma say that as i get older i’ll lose most of my friends
I wanna tell her she’s wrong but everyday i think it less
Just like I comes before E inside the word friends
I comes before we with every friendship that ends
It’s like we’re all too selfish to see that we’re helpless
Like white girls that comment on posts that they “felt this”
It’s crazy we’re all so focused on some kinda verification
Posting photos tryna to play up our 2 day vacation
For likes and shares and comments
Been discussed before but I do got one thing to comment
All of the fake love, and especially all of the drama
Just seems so silly, it’s just alma mater
The place where all of us matter
Except none of us are treated with an ounce of respect
Expected to be perfect when teachers can’t even help us, instead they deflect
Say it’s our fault
Just like San Andreas
Lets go back to the days, where we felt the greatest
360 degrees, the world goes round
Play in the streets, without a frown
[Bridge]
It’s how we perceive the ones who surround us
It’s like our world got turned upside down, love
[Chorus]
Nostalgia, what is good for?
Re-re-reminiscing, back on the years for
Old times sake, we look back on it smiling
Make no mistake, we were laughing and crying
Not a care, for the people or the world above us
We were dumb, but that’s why we had a ring above us
We were young, didn’t care that people loved us
We were wrong, now we askin' what they thinking of us
Nostalgia, what is good for?
Re-re-reminiscing, back on the years for
Old times sake, we look back on it smiling
Make no mistake, we were laughing and crying
Not a care, for the people or the world above us
We were dumb, but that’s why we had a ring above us
We were young, didn’t care that people loved us
We were wrong, now we askin' what they thinking of us
