Reminisce

This is how we reminisce
No times will be better than this
Remember all the times that we had
When everyone was happy, joyful, and glad
This is how we reminisce
......................................................................................................
Let me take you back on a time machine of sorts
Let us go back to the year 2004
Remember all the things they had on tv
Back then that black box used to engulf me
Remember the orange VHS tapes, I do without a doubt
I'm still here wondering, "who let the dogs out!!"
Remember when we used to chill with the Kids Next Door
And when Fosters Home came on at around 4
Remember when Rudy got the chalk, so he got the power
And I can't forget watching Jimmy and Timmy for an entire hour
What about The Incredibles, or the Spongebob movie
Remember during recess when it was ok to be goofy
Remember how easy it was back then to make friends
Looking back you wish these moments would never end
......................................................................................................
This is how we reminisce
No times will be better than this
Remember all the times that we had
When everyone was happy, joyful, and glad
This is how we reminisce
....................................................................................................
Ok now let's head to the year 2005
When we figured out the Avatar was still alive
Remember all those hurricanes, those were scary
Damn at this time I wish we all had some Fairy's
Back then Nickelback and Gwen Stefani were big
And Kanye told us about women who liked to gold dig
Fast forward a bit, now I got to move schools
I remember when it was fun to be the class fool
Y'all remember heely's and cranking that soulja boy
Do y'all remember the Xbox, and that rip stick toy
I remember Naruto, that was my guilty pleasure
It was like a contagious disease, and I had no cure
And what about all those parties for my birthday
Man we had so much fun at the end of May
Times were so simple and fun back then
Sometimes I wish those moments would never end
...................................................................................................
This is how we reminisce
No times will be better than this
Remember all the times that we had
When everyone was happy, joyful, and glad
This is how we reminisce

Now I'm in middle school, watching WWE
I'm starting in band, this is exciting for me
Y'all remember the music back in 2011
It was absolute fire, this must be heaven
High School coming up, let's see how it goes
Now I really got to deal with my raging hormones
I'm gonna stay in band, I'll see it to the end
So I can make new great memories with all of my friends
Met a lot of new people, had a lot of fun
Those football games were lit under the hot sun
The years went by quick, the time almost finished
But these moments are things I'll never diminish
Through the years I've made a lot of great memories
And I want to thank all the people who shared them with me
There's way too many people out there I could name
Without y'all, my life would never be the same
My childhood was quick, it went by in a swing
And looking back at it, I wouldn't change a thing
There were no times ever better than this
And this is how I reminisce
