Back In The Day (Explicit) - Mac Miller

Lyrics by：Malcolm McCormick

Back in the day when it was a dream

Nobody believed in what I could be

But now I'm laughin' at 'em like "Ha-ha-ha"

'Cause I'ma be okay

Back in the day when it was a dream

Nobody believed in what I could be

But now I'm laughin' at 'em like "Ha-ha-ha"

'Cause I'ma be okay

I used to have a dream now it seem

That I'ma live it in real life

Gettin' free jeans good w**d feelin' real nice

Used to think that I was too short or too dumb

Just a newcomer to the game tryna do somethin'

Used to runnin' after ice cream trucks

But now I just stroll lacе my Nike's up

I'm a nice clean cut good lookin' individual

Fillin' up a notebook with rhymes when I be in the school

Learn quick that nobody here invincible

We feel big but in reality we miniscule

Try and make a million bucks before I reach my pinnacle

Supernova status from basically invisible

Growin' up thinkin' it was cool to be a criminal

Until I saw a couple homies go down

See now that isn't me or anything I'm finna be

I want the money cars h*es clothes a kid can dream

I used to talk to girls that wasn't even into me

Now they hit me up wantin' intimacy

But nah I got a girl and she down for me

My little Juliet chillin' on the balcony

If I need it she gon' run a hundred miles for me

Love me for me not who I'm 'bout to be

And if they didn't believe then I can do without 'em

'Cause at the end of the day I'm just Malcolm

Back in the day when it was a dream

Nobody believed in what I could be

But now I'm laughin' at 'em like "Ha-ha-ha"

'Cause I'ma be okay

Back in the day when it was a dream

Nobody believed in what I could be

But now I'm laughin' at 'em like "Ha-ha-ha"

'Cause I'ma be okay

Hey hey

Just a little snotty nose tryna find his pot of gold

Stayin' up late on the phone always callin' h*es

Never thought I'd blow no one took me serious

Now they see me walkin' down the street like "Oh there he is"

As a kid anything was possible

But momma knows the hottest flow

Don't put me on the honor roll

Grades started slippin' the classes I be skippin'

Tried to tell me that I was a fool I wouldn't listen no

As a youngin' I was playin' pretend

My wonder years never thought they would end

Back back in my glory days way before the haters

A good night sleep had me energized for the day

When I would look up at the planets in they orbit

Before this life got distorted

Before the money was a plan
