chow mane - from sj to salinas lyrics

[intro]
from san jose to salinas
used to drive every weekend
daddy’s 95 civic
on the 101 speedin’
used to fall asleep ’til right before we got to my momma’s
96.9 delilah after fark got me calmer
but let’s take it back some more, when my dad was in seaside
the whole family reside
in one house i was knee high
on my uncle ps2, certain days after school
when my momma not watchin’ cuz she been workin’ a fool

[hook]
that’s okay, let’s take it back to those days
that’s alright, you gotta cherish those times
that’s okay, let’s take it back to those days
that’s alright, you gotta chеrish those times

[verse 1]
early morning blues, timе to go to school
daddy dropped me off at seven he had some things to do
i spent 2 hours wandering ’round until assembly line
my hands were frozen cold, i’m wearin’ hand me downs
and i ain’t had too many friends, they would say i’m odd
where no one looked like me, i felt like i don’t belong
and after school my uncle took me to the restaurant
helped momma pour the tea, like it was mowin’ the lawn, ok
grandma’s house never had no heater
on the couch listenin’ to linkin park
i think that i was like, thirteen my
heart broken first time by nina, uh
usher raymond on the speaker, huh
middle school slow dance
told her we should hold hands
storybook romance, stop
meanwhile my momma datin’ round ’til she met my stepdad
used to get so mad, now i feel so blessed
meanwhile my dad depressed, ain’t seen him smile for couple years
worked himself like half to death, but now he shinin’ since we all here
[bridge]
from san jose to salinas
used to drive every weekend
grandpa’s 94 camry
back when he could still drive
i know we got the same eyes, but i ain’t seen what he seen
he left his home like 40 years ago must feel like a dream
i take my home wherever i go inside my memories
like how my momma’s baked potatoes always came from wendy’s
like it’s sunday mornin’ listenin’ to commodores on k+oean
while my dad singin’ along i’m thinkin’ d+mn he got some soul huh

[hook]
that’s okay, let’s take it back to those days
that’s alright, you gotta cherish those times
that’s okay, let’s take it back to those days
that’s alright, you gotta cherish those times

[verse]
i was 5 years old sittin’ on the floor in salinas
‘fore my parents put that plug inside the spark in between ’em
when they were fighting i would go upstairs and hide in the blanket
watchin ed edd n’ eddy, hopin’ that they would make it
but 20 years later i think that they finally found peace
i never think what coulda been cuz then i wouldn’t be me
seen both ’em break down time again but that’s just human i think
to make the best with what we have and find a way to succeed
that’s wassup
