Best Days Lyrics


This is a deep story, a very deep story
The life of Young Rome, picture me
In the hood playin' hidin'-go-get-it
With a slingshot in my back pocket
Just bad as hell, that's me
Those were the best times of my life
(I gotta give it up)
Those were the best times of my life
(To the greatest niggas of my life, Marques Houston)
Those were the best times of my life
(LDB, if I could change anythin')
Those were the best times of my life
(I wouldn't change nothin' at all)
Listen up, I remember growin' up in the streets of menace
Where the boys turned thugs, I was labeled a menace
A little bad nigga, momma use to whip my ass
I’m playin' football on the concreted instead of the grass
I remember meetin' Chris Stokes, Taz kicked me

Out the whole bunch, man the whole hood had jokes
'Til we came out with the Da Munchies
That’s right Romeo, Batman and Half Pint
We was the first to pull up black street and Destiny’s Child
Had to replace Half Pint 'cause his parents wasn't down
With lettin' him ride, we fasted adversity early
Then God blessed us with LDB
New LP, tours, freakin' girls at 13
Young, black and missive, just livin' my dreams
Interviews, photo shoots, young teen in zoo suits
Hearin' grown women sayin', "They so cute"
(Them was the days, man)
Those were the best times of my life
(Yeah, those were)
Those were the best times of my life
(And I still think back on 'em)
Those were the best times of my life
(And it makes me feel so good)
(But here's another chapter of my work)
Those were the best times of my life
(Half Pint need ya'll listen to this real good)
It felt good to see Marques go solo, I stood by his side
His dreams was my dreams, so the love will never die
I remember when we first met B2K
I knew God was with us and gave us brighter days
Seein' them grow, meant more to me then seein' them blow
I miss hearin' Fizz callin' me big bro
My love will never change Druex Pierre
I’m in the poof without you and I wish you was here
It's like the game was designed to kill us
Raz and Boog, I miss you, I hope this music can heal us
I remember us playin' ball and wildin' out
Shinin' together, alternatin' whips, livin' in the same house
Tappin' chicks out on the same couch
Never thought fame and money would take us this route
But the good out weighed the bad, I’m happy
To see you alive and well, I ain't mad but I miss you nigga
Those were the best times of my life
(Yeah, those were)
Those were the best times of my life
(And I always had love for my niggas, no matter what)
Those were the best times of my life
(Let's go)
Those were the best times of my life
(Yo, this is for my niggas on the block, another chapter)
Yo, I am not God, I cannot judge, I refuse to look down
Upon my thugs while they push they product
And bust slugs, I remember seein' chest bang
And dudes, I looked up too on the block slangin'
Tellin' me my thang is makin' the music and anythin' is bad
For you if you abuse it, so we equivalent in the sense
And what I learned from back in the day I hope you youngin's
Follow my footprints, follow my footprints, follow my footprints
Those were the best times of my life
(Yeah, I swear to you they were)
Those were the best times of my life
(I just thank y'all for lettin' me)
Those were the best times of my life
(Read a couple of chapters out the book of my life)
Those were the best times of my
(And they really were)
Those were the best times of my life
(C'mon y'all, just clap with me)
Those were the best times of my life
(Just pray with me)
Those were the best times of my life
(Show love with me)
Those were the best times of my life
(Put your hands with me)
Those were the best times of my life
(Yeah, yeah)
Those were the best times of my life

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Immature no longer, 22-year-old Young Rome is about to cast his own riveting spell on the R&B and hip-hop world and beyond with his first album, Food For Thought. The effort vividly illustrates the growth of a promising talent who, for the first time, reveals his own roots through a multi-faceted perspective. Rome, who is still just 22, is taking a temporary break from the trio Immature in which he launched his music career 11 years ago. He has just starred in the Hollywood hit movie "You Got Served" which did over 40 million at the box office. He is scheduled to return in "You Got Served 2". This album is different than anything anyone has ever seen me do, he continues. It’s far from what Immature did. It’s more mature--more about my personal life and what I’ve been through. I sing about the ups and downs of being in the group, of what’s happening with my family and going through stuff. This album shows all of me-the adversity and everything else. A wide-variety of cutting-edge producers worked on the material for the album, from big names such as Rufus Blaq and T Scott to hot street names like J. Brown and Maddphunk and PMG. I’m actually surprised to see how good it came out, because I haven’t really been in a studio for two years, he says. I tried to reinvent myself, even with my vocal style and rapping voice. When I used to rap in Immature, I did a lot more kiddie stuff, talking about things that just fit for the girls. Now I’m doing stuff for everybody. Anyone who has ever had certain problems like I’ve had, can probably relate to them in different songs. The lead-off single, After Party, features Omarion from B2K. It was one of the first songs we recorded, Rome says. As soon as everyone in the studio heard it, we knew it had to drop first. It’s more of an eye-opener; people will be hearing me, by myself, for the first time. They’ll see what I can do. It’s almost like a warm-up to everything that’s on the album. Most albums just have a lot of party songs. Mine has party songs, too, but it also has different songs that describe the things I went through. The single is just the top layer to it all. He’s also very proud of the track Best Days. It talks about Immature, Rome says. Especially the whole story of what we went through with B2K. But we’re going to surprise people with a lot of the new songs. When I was younger, I was hit in my eye with a book. People always wondered why I wore that patch. That’s why. I talk about a lot of situations like that-about my posse and my bro-some of the things that affected me really hard. Expect to see Young Rome at a radio station near you, as he’ll embark on a nationwide promo tour with several other up-and-coming artists. Of performing with just a DJ onstage--and not his fellow Immature compatriots-Rome says, I’m going to come out with more creative things to get the crowd get high, Before you could react to each other and say, ‘Hey take off your shirt and make ‘em scream.’ Now I’m going to be entertaining with my music-and myself. Being himself is the key to Young Rome’s creativity. I had to be honest with myself when I did these songs, he admits. Writing the songs and putting them out there is almost like therapy for me. It helped me work through my situations. I’m not a talkative person who tells everyone his problems, but when I did this, it was a release for me. I can finally move on in my life. And best of all, everyone else can enjoy the ride.
