Verse I Maybe I do fall into the same footsteps as pops Turned the hands of the clock back To Lakewood Street now, that's where he would be found 30 years ago Let's take a journey, here we go To Suitland, Maryland. That's where the Willingham's stay That's my fathers last name He pretty much looks the same Back in the days he was 16 & doing his thing Construction, making money with his hands.. That's my dad He kept a lil ride, sumthin nice to drive slow in Playing "Mind Blowing", 8track stereo and Him and moms went to Suitland High, she was superfly Plus his sister's best friend so, they began to get close I found a picture from the year before I was born, corner half torn.. Mom & pops hands joined Eye to eye, why do I.. Not remember all that And I closed my eyes, and through dreams I go back there.. Yeahh Hook Hey, come on.. Ride with me, and take a trip, through the time machine Years away, away from today I'm traveling back, to how I became And going way back, to back in the days Of when we used to speak, but now the times have changed Hey come on, ride with me now, through the time machine.. Verse II I found another picture too From the year 1980, I was goin on two It was me, my aunt Toya, alotta joy around christmas Opening my gifts & the colors slowly drifting away Fading, just like a memory from a while back Looking siced in the picture, got some toys and a cowboy hat Neppy's house was off of Porter Ave I couldn't touch less it was mine, see I was taught to ask Or moms would whoop my a**, respect, gonna need that. Believe that She dropped the bottomline, leaving no room for feedback And u could see that in them other pictures too When I was a little dude Me & moms would hit the zoo up Before the yU, it was Mikey/ Mike Jr The world is a labyrinth, so don't let it lose ya If the sun was outside, you don't need no flash Perfect lighting for this flick, that was taken in the past, let's goooo.. (Repeat Hook 2x) Verse III The last picture I hold, goes for all of those who never seen their folks when they were close Those days are long gone, but I am the result Of a bond that wasn't solid, so they drifted apart Moms thing was her art, and pops was good with his hands Innate traits I had to take from the blend that yall had, daaag.. Lookin at these pictures makes me wonder what if.. But if anything had changed my destiny might switch too My daughter is that proof, time done pa**ed by Some people that you see, it could be for the last time Flipping, through a dusty, brown leather photo album Showing my daughter pictures from back when I was young I'm trading places with my pops in the drivers seat Her eyes are wide, their reminding me of me So add another branch, to my family tree Just roll wit me, lemme take you through the time machine..
