"Then To Now"

The Headlands has so much changed , you can walk in the store without seeing someone trying to bum change ~ When you pull in convenient you have a parking spot , instead of 100 kids flooding the parking lot ~ Not a single teen begging you to buy them beer , there's not even as close as many kids when I grew up around here ~ No longer is there 40's of laser sold of the shelf , when now you can walk in the store an buy a single shell ~ No more fighting everyday and boy we were hard , no more wide mouth phat boys in the woods no more 40 graveyards ~ No more late night party's and fire's at the beach , we're all grown now and half are deceased ~ No more skateboards no more hacky sacks , everyday i sit and think "man I wish I could go back" ~ No more house party's and running from the cops , it seems when we got older that all came to a sudden stop ~ The new generation has nothing on this , aint nobody did it like us when we were kids ~ If you grew up in my era you would know what I'm talking about , that the Headlands is totally different from then to now ~ B.
