(feat. RJD2 & J Live)


Rock with me through the waves on the TV screen

Flash back the dream sequence yo whatever it means

Escape from the present time date and mindstate

Rewind to a clean slate and a full plate

106th where they maintain the wall of fame

Middle School showed me everything before was lame

Girls and basketball my approach was the same

Couldn't score had no game but had fun playing

Picture being the 12th man on championship teams

From Bucks Tournament down to Asphalt Greens

In between Rufford Towers and Metro North

Struggling without hardships to not go soft

Found what I really wanted but I didn't need

I realized it galvanized my identity

It makes strangers out of old friends and enemies

But gave them brand new reasons to remember me

Especially when...


Chorus:


The last sunshine is about to fade

The leaves in the trees turn red and sway

Telling me its almost yesterday

I just wanna tell you I miss you

Hope and wish you would stay for a little while

Its dark and I can't even see your smile

A cold old man that was once child

I just want to tell you I miss you


1st Verse:


I miss those day we would skate from Hawthorne to Ingle-

Wood under my feet remember every single crack

In the concrete makes my neck tingle in fact

This track gotta a brother thinking way back in time

Way before I had a dime out of writing a rhyme

Go to Magic Mountain and cut in all the lines

Getting numbers lets see who got the most and find

It wasn't me but the brother named B and we

Would love to sneak in movies for free

Watching "Goonies" ducking low in our seats

Then hit the streets on our skateboards again the Summer never ended

Skin hit the wind the young and the splendid

7-11 heavenly parking lot laughs in the night

Grinning and spending time with the bitty that I liked/loved hot chocolate Denny's in the twilight buzz

Waiting for your train to arrive cause


Chorus:


The last sunshine is about to fade

The leaves in the trees turn red and sway

Telling me its almost yesterday

I just wanna tell you I miss you

Hope and wish you would stay for a little while

Its dark and I can't even see your smile

A cold old man that was once child

I just want to tell you I miss you


2nd Verse:


Shots rang out in the night we stood still

Found out it was a car then chilled

Hated going to the liquor store for some milk

Cause the Bloods in '88 stayed hot like grills

I miss the simple and plain my very first kiss

Stained with pangs I reminisce about my innocence changed

On my first tour gazing out my window in the rain

Sparked a flame and my heart was the propane


I remember so called friends calling me out like Paul Simon

To fighting with fools for mispronouncing my name

To making my own niche in this rap game

To thinking that this is something that's never gonna change

Simultaneous riding the train riding the shame

Wondering when I'm gonna stay above ground for a change

Not enough knowing I'm never gonna beg for change

Doing my thing I need more to just maintain or stay the same when....


Chorus:


The last sunshine is about to fade

The leaves in the trees turn red and sway

Telling me its almost yesterday

I just wanna tell you I miss you

Hope and wish you would stay for a little while

Its dark and I can't even see your smile

A cold old man that was once child

I just want to tell you I miss you

I just want to tell you I miss you

I just want to tell you

The sun is going down for now

Going down for now (4x)
