Letra de 'Kids...' de A Tribe Called Quest

I ain't even gon' lie, I was probably high
Just forgot to call you back, simple as that
I ain't no almanac, so lick my dictionary
I might just call a cab 'cause I dig canary

Yellow accents on a dark bitch
I met her back when she kept all her carpet
I'm well aware, all that shit is fantasy
I double dare y'all to fuck your plan b

That's demeanor, momma's mannerisms
That mean, don't mean to get vulgar, but it's some
Hoes in this bitch like a box of donuts
It's cold out in this bitch, standing on the corner

Condolences to niggas that got erased
I pour out some liquor on a cop's grave
Mmm, digital church bells
Ringin' 'cross the street, sure work well

(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) for real (for real?) for real (for real)

Kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) for real (for real?) for real (for real)

I don't wanna get up now, I don't wanna go to school
I don't wanna be the best, don't wanna follow rules
Mom, I think you fuckin' lied to me
Three stacks said all this shit is fantasy

It's my time, gon' put a little life to it
If life's a obstacle then I'mma bike through it
I see it like a kiddie on the carousel
If I 'url while I go around, what the hell

And that went well, so I'm compelled
To have visions of getting chicken while my friends get jel
My young nigga motto was: Fuck it, I'm already grown
And I dream of when I'm sixteen, I'm out my home

That petty though, 'cause my mama boyfriend dough
It's kinda long like this old head hustle, yo
He cognizant of a nigga ride and die
I see us getting money through my green eyes

(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) for real (for real?) for real (for real)

Yeah, all the kids, all the what, uh
Yeah, all the badass kids, uh
Kids, say I'm the shit

I'm chick-fil-a nuggets, mcdonald's french fries

The spicy popeye's and red lobster biscuits
And girls scout thin mints, pardon my penmanship, but oh shit
Feel like I'm hungry now again

And I can't do nothing about it because my teeth are all rotted
And my mom and my pop, they just grin
And empathize with me 'cause they were little like pygmies
But too bad they can't get back they 'member whens

Them grown-up stories don't work
In the court of the kiddies', the judgement is in
And while y'all doing all y'all your bids, y'all reminisce as kids

Fuck it, kids, the grown-ups won't own up
They stood on the corner, like you once upon a, time
And probably felt like a loner
And smelled like a stoner, and snuck to daytona

So when they questioning you 'bout who or who you ain't boning
Complaining that you always moaning, never saying good morning
Storming out my house and slamming doors like you paying bills
They been through it too, though, they were kids like you, though

But what if they knew though and hit you with the cheat code
To a game you just start playing, no extra man
Leave you reckless on the court with no high percentage shot
Just a bunch of, "you got 'em, nigga, just give it what you got"

Yeah, it look a little different on a yacht but ain't gon' lie, I miss kayaking
I love the young niggas, and they do too, they just be acting
Like a bunch of retired tired thespians, a bit too salty
Shit, their blood pressure high, why? They don't play no more, probably

(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?

(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?

(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
(Kids) kids, don't you know how all this shit is fantasy?
