Then n NOW

Ever have those day's when being a grwon up ain't so cool,
Realising freedom and independence was better as a child,
Full of innocence,
Cartoons relevant,
Only worries was, making friends and avoiding whoopins,
What's for dinner,
I smell dad's cookin,
Loosin teeth was celebrated,
Acknowledged and congratulated...

Nowadays they get pulled out,
Satisfied without a doubt,
Replace them with a brand new set,
Framed in gold, swag ain't left yet,

Freedom now, is peace of mind,
Made it through the toughest times,
Independence shows stability,
Assume responsibility,

Cartoons can be relevant,
Based upon their innocence,
Making friends and still have room,
Whoopins end, we paid our dues,

Culinary I should've tookin,
Better smell what Roc is cooking,
Growing up is not that bad,
With the love of mom and dad,
Reflect on how it used to be,
Youthful serendipity.
