I used to burn it in a rizzla,
Now i am a man i jus' a burn collie weed in a chalwa,
I jus' a rub it in a chalwaa
The song "When I Was a Yout" by Ed Solo & Skool of Thought reflects on one's journey from youth to adulthood, specifically in relation to smoking marijuana or "collie weed." The first two lines describe the youth's behavior of rolling and smoking the weed using a Rizla paper, which is a thin rolling paper commonly used in Europe. This could indicate the carefree and spontaneous behavior of the youth, who did not have much responsibility or worries. However, as the person grows older and becomes a man, he changes his smoking technique to using a chalice or a traditional smoking pipe. This could suggest that the person is more mature and responsible in handling his drug use, and is not just using it for recreational purposes, but rather for spiritual or cultural practices.
The lyrics may also symbolize the different phases in a person's life, and how their perception and approach towards certain things change over time. It can also represent the shift in society's attitude towards marijuana use, from being demonized in the past to being accepted and even legalized in some places. The lyrics can be seen as a reflection on personal growth and development, and how one's experiences shape their perspective and behavior.
