Lyrics

And I remember when it was all Power Rangers Alex Mack and the Simpsons an hour later When the hell did it all get so complicated? (Probably when they took Alex Mack off...) Shout out to the friends I made in high school We connected over skate tricks and episodes of Seinfeld And waiting for a text from the girl I knew then To interrupt my game of snake on my 3210 Those were the days Now things have changed Like there's more pieces of this puzzle to arrange So for every friend I've ever known You've been a stepping stone Like we together, gonna make it out this terrordome And I don't like to preach But what I believe Is life's about the relationships we take the time to keep Forget about the petty shit that don't mean anything Go out and buy your girl a motherfucking wedding ring We gon' be okay We gon' be okay No matter what the others say Let 'em throw their sticks and their stones It don't matter 'Cause what matters is that we know Yeah, we know We gon' be okay We gon' be okay No matter what the others say Our friendships are the bricks that we build with Wanna be grown-ups who see life like children I was 6 years old, wrote my first love letter To some girl outta my league She was like 11 I'd saved up all my money Just to buy her a necklace And then she said we should be friends (hell nah) My first kiss was shit But I'll never forget it Outside my auntie's house It was early in December Couple of school friends pushed us together And, yeah, I pretended like I didn't wanna let 'em Some things change Most shit doesn't I still measure my pace by one friend or another But the lady in my life, now I tell her that I love her Instead of watching her in class, wishing I could touch her And hell, son, isn't that something? The whole idea of someone gives meaning to the doldrums Now I don't need to remind you not to default There's a heart in your hand, so you better learn to hold it We gon' be okay We gon' be okay No matter what the others say Let 'em throw their sticks and their stones It don't matter 'Cause what matters is that we know Yeah, we know We gon' be okay We gon' be okay No matter what the others say Our friendships are the bricks that we build with Wanna be grown-ups who see life like children They say smart phones stop us from enjoying the moment 'Cause we're too busy posting We're enjoying the moment Some drinks on the town mean laughs all around But if drugs get us high, or mask that we're down I remember, we hit up any park that we found It was just our dads, but we'd harness the crowd Bad marks in class forgotten with a great mark on the grounds Speckys, grab like the stars would be ours I'm a soldier with a battleship Our guns don't work - now that's good management Build friendships, getting people places All hands on deck, it doesn't matter if we make it Now I look up with love and I feel thy lips Now I'm blessed with a girl I can build that with I'm a little lovesick, uh-uh, smiles for some medicine Tell me I should go out and buy that girl a wedding ring We gon' be okay We gon' be okay No matter what the others say Let 'em throw their sticks and their stones It don't matter 'Cause what matters is that we know Yeah, we know We gon' be okay We gon' be okay No matter what the others say Our friendships are the bricks that we build with Wanna be grown-ups who see life like children We gon' be okay
