Screens

Kids, man, they just ain't the way they used to be

When we was comin' up man

These little mother****ers don't even wanna go outside

They stay in they house!

I don't give a **** how broke you are

You could be on food stamps

You got a Sega Genesis at the house

(Justice League, Justice League, Justice League...)

You got crazy out here, man

My son come home from school

Take every article of clothin' off

He has no intentions of goin' outside (Huhu)

Man, damn screens

Kids don't come upstairs with grass stains on they jeans

No playin' tag at night, no more sun down freeze

No more fallin' off they bike, peroxide on knees

Geez, I ain't seen a double dutch in years

What happened to skelly? No more tops, hitting squares

I used to front flip off of the fence

Back flip off the swing

Somebody dared, you had to do it to be playground king

Walked across monkey bars, rubber mats so far

Somethin' crazy drove by, screamed "That's my car!"

Threw rocks upon the roof, they couldn't match my arm

And man hunt lasted long, we couldn't catch Tyquan, shit

Red-quarter water action man to have a sip

Packin' our laters and a quarter bag of chips

Never would I ever thought a game of catch and kiss would be

Somethin' that these kids would have to miss

Imagine this

Phone screen, tablet screen, computer screen

80 inch TV screen, I never seen

So many ways to look away from the world

These screens raisin' your sons

Babysittin' your girls

So many screens

Everyone say hi, you're on a screen

Uh, I used to wanna go out in the rain

Moms would say no so I complaint near the windowpane

She always gave into that look in my face

Those days I got chased, cops and robbers in the staircase

Where they at? In the front or the back?

It was quiet, and then "Pat" 'til you run out of caps

Every basketball court in the summer was packed

Every winter was tackle football, don't fumble to snap

Now every time I look another app, man, what's up with that?

It's like every single day involves a double tap

Used to beg moms "Can my boys have some fun with me?"

Off the top rope was the dresser WWE

Now my son wear headsets runnin' through the trees

Playin' Call Of Duty, guess that's what they callin' Company

Was no anywhere, couldn't front on my team

These kids don't go anyway man, they infront of them screens

Phone screen, tablet screen, computer screen

80 inch TV screen, I never seen

So many ways to look away from the world

These screens raisin' your sons

Babysittin' your girls

So many screens

Everyone say hi, you're on a screen

Phone screen, tablet screen, computer screen

80 inch TV screen, I never seen

So many ways to look away from the world

These screens raisin' your sons

Babysittin' your girls

So many screens

Everyone say hi, you're on a screen
