Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was on the South Side of Sacramento Eating soggy cereal in my boxers watching cartoons On 24th Street, wasn't no silver on our spoons Gorilla Garden Goons, torpedos and harpoons If we lost a fair one, fuck it We just went home and licked out wounds (Run it back) The d-boys had the best girls and the best cars Luke Skywalker but I ain't talking 'bout that Death Star 2 Live, the entire Crew was solidified Whatever dirt we did, no one was identified If nine members put in work and only four went to jail That means the five stayеd free 'cause the four others didn't tеll And you can never say their names 'cause whoever inquire That nigga either nosey as hell or he wearing a wire I remember, whole house smelling like pinecones and candy canes Happy even though I ain't get shit on the day that Santa came (I knew better) The lights was on, that was a gift And presently looking back on the past, that was a trip (I was just a kid, though) Blessed to be alive with all my kinfolk Freedom made up for all of my bad Christmases ten fold I got knocked down but I'm right back on my ten toes I'm still the same kid that snuck up out that window [Chorus] Boy Meets World but I never met a Topanga I went outside to play and ended up stepping in danger Somebody died every day and it was never a stranger We were a species at risk but never considered endangered, yeah Boy Meets World but I never met a Topanga He was a fatherless child, his chest was filled up with anger He saw his daddy go to prison for being a cocaine slanger Asked him what he want to be when he grow up, he said, "A banger, nigga!" [Verse 2] Even the girls throw up the gang with their fangers She like a wild mustang You gotta wrangle and claim her She'll never respect a lame She need a gangster to tame her Disrespect, she'll pull the trigger 'til nothing remains in the chamber, yeah The harsh reality's challenging, it's unsettling Her brother's tired of being broke He's ready for better things He saw the ballers wearing clothes and jewelry he never seen He hit the plug, got fronted some coke and begun peddling He went and bought a car so he can be done pedaling (Yeah) Next thing you know, the government comes meddling (Whoa) They gave him Fed time and he was hardly seventeen As they say, the grass on the other side is hardly ever green [Chorus] Boy Meets World but I never met a Topanga I went outside to play and ended up stepping in danger Somebody died every day and it was never a stranger We were a species at risk but never considered endangered, yeah Boy Meets World but I never met a Topanga He was a fatherless child, his chest was filled up with anger He saw his daddy go to prison for being a cocaine slanger Asked him what he want to be when he grow up, he said "A banger, nigga!"
