Childhood ft. SAV. & ChewieCatt Lyrics

Well that was just childhood

We were all there together and in denial would play like it was forever

And in the tall woods, we'd stay out of the weather

Like it was all good, every day we made it for pleasure

We were saying whatever came to our minds

Plain and simple like a tetherball reaching the sky

We were taking new heights, on the swing while it was making us fly

Be the king of the hill and everything will be fine

The thrill, thrill of everything we would find the innocence of a child you could see in the eyes

When you're making 'em smile or you're making 'em cry

We could take out our bikes and have 'em racing for miles

It's like a dream these days, it can take me a while

To feel the same way that I did, it's just a file

Tucked away inside of my head, making a pile

While my brain is filling up space, I'm going wild

Back in childhood, we were taking our time

Waste away a day while we were making a sign

That was childhood, we would play in the pines

Build another fort and we would put it inside

Back in childhood, we could say what we'd like

No girls allowed, and keep out of sight

Yeah that was childhood, we were giving high fives

And we could never die the best time of our life

Before I had a job and before I had to pay the bills

All I had to focus on was simple math and playing skills

Dunkaroos and Lunchables combined to make my favorite meals

Watching Nickelodeon on TV every day was ill

I played Sonic and never stopped, Dr. Robotnik was the ops

If I couldn't beat the third level then my confidence was shot

I pretended cracks in the sidewalks were hot lava when I walked

Now this side of me shows up in my daughter when she talks

Bro that's childhood, and there ain't no replacing it

Drinking Shirley Temples and root beer floats while vacationing

My mom would take me up and down the boardwalk rollerblading quick

We even rode a tandem bike one time and it was way legit

The way it is now is great cause I'm wise

But I would love to revisit these amazing good times

And as grateful as I am, I never faked it one time

And I can say I had a great childhood and made the ish mine

Back in childhood, we were taking our time

Waste away a day while we were making a sign

That was childhood, we would play in the pines

Build another fort and we would put it inside

Back in childhood, we could say what we'd like

No girls allowed, and keep out of sight

Yeah that was childhood, we were giving high fives

And we could never die the best time of our life

Yeah, see when I was growing up,

I remember good times, lots of laughter and love

Face paint at the fair, Mom look I am a tiger

Now it's all about designer, feels like love's locked up

Captured behind paywalls, and scammers, cell phone calls

Not living in the moment, like when I was 8 years old

Riding our bikes, until we all got called for dinner

What is it, pizza on a Friday night, a winner

Put up the bike, eat and take a second slice

You know we were always staying up late on those Friday nights

No school, can't be bothered on my weekend vibe

Wake up late, me and the brother would go outside

Something so peaceful about a little wind in a kite

Sunset dinners on the deck out back, that's what I like

Mom or dad would come back to tuck me in, that's right

Man there were nothing like those 8 year old weekend nights

Back in childhood, we were taking our time

Waste away a day while we were making a sign

That was childhood, we would play in the pines

Build another fort and we would put it inside

Back in childhood, we could say what we'd like

No girls allowed, and keep out of sight

Yeah that was childhood, we were giving high fives

And we could never die the best time of our life

We were taking our time

We were taking our time

We were taking our time

We were playing in the pines

We were playing in the pines

We could say what we like

We could say what we like

We were giving high fives

The best time of our life

The best time of our life

The best time of our life

The best time of our life

The best time of our life

The best time of our life

The best time of our life
