Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I be thinking way back
I be thinking way back, way back when
Everything was all good
Even better cause I got a real life best friend
I be thinking way back
I be thinking way back, way back when
Everything was all good
Even better cause I got a real life best friend
Gotta take it way back, yeah I love to reminisce
Starting with my first best friend, that's my rider call her big sis
Take these roses while you're here so you can still smell em
Mom and pops gone it's nothing that you can tell em
You ain't always need a phone but you can still reach em
Show me all about class and she can still teach em
In all ways you know how life goes
Achieving everything yeah them life goals
In my own lane heading up the right road
Shining cause ma dukes said let ya light show
So you know what I'm feeling like
I'm In the zone of my own what I feel is right
Doesn't matter if I lose or if I win
If I got you by my side I forever got a friend
Got a friend, yeah I got a friend
If you right here on my side I forever got a friend, 100
Royal flush I'm all the way in
Play the cards I was dealt and I'm riding to the end
Say that's right, that's right
Play the cards I was dealt and I'm riding to the end
Say that's right, that's right
Play the cards I was dealt and I'm riding
I be thinking way back
I be thinking way back way back when
Everything was all good
Even better cause I got a real life best friend
I be thinking way back
I be thinking way back way back when
Everything was all good
Even better cause I got a real life best friend
Thoughts definitely runnin thru
Thinkin back on all them times I was comin thru
What it do texas boo, that stallion sittin
Up clean, no lean, but Im still sippin, still tippin
Four four's that's how we on the road
Breezin thru the tolls, go head take control
Crazy wit the dome, cheatin astro
Whispering up in my ear, you the one I chose
I play that game too shawty I already know
Keep going I aint trippin miss pinocchio
Now this the type of vibe I been missin
No stressin, no bitchin, less words, more kissin
Strippin down in the kitchen, sit you on the counter top
Lollipop how im lickin, tryna make that tootsie pop
Body rock, Im talking melvin and jaunita
She aint shy when them lights off
Tell me have ya seen her, have ya seen her
Nah you ain't seen another
We on our signs of love making creepin under covers
Im talkin shaggin in the bathroom mr. lover
Pipe work ima be ya plumber
Damn, on chills Im armaretto sippin
See the l hit smooth it got me reminiscing
Thinkin back forever be the same
Man that shit a never change, replaying in my brain
I be thinking way back
I be thinking way back way back when
Everything was all good
Even better cause I got a real life best friend
I be thinking way back
I be thinking way back way back when




Everything was all good
Even better cause I got a real life best friend
