kids

sometimes I sit back and reminisce, on times much simpler than this, like when we were just kids, trying to figure out what this life is. watching cartoons on the weekends, playing games like baseball and basketball with the neighborhood friends. before we had bills, and had to worry about finances and making these ends. pizza in the oven, Nintendo before it got switched. pun intended. Xbox wasn't even thought of, though we like to pretend. turtles on the screen, and food in the fridge. not a care in our minds, wasn't worried about the evils in this world in which we live. but hey we all gotta grow up one day. hoping we all got it right, whatever that is. now that we're older and got kids of our own, it's easier to understand why our parents would get so pissed. when we got in trouble at school and started breaking shit. they worked their ass off, to pay for it granny went to church every Sunday and prayed for it. leading by example, at the same time slaved for it. we'd get offended anytime they'd say something like we can't afford it. now that we're grown and on our own, we still can't understand how they ever did afford it. the lifestyle that we knew, before this poor shit.
