’07 honda
[Verse 1]
Back in '07 we bought the Honda
Momma wanted Hyundai, Auntie wanted Mazda
Copped two Civics for my grammy and gramps
Back then, I cherished everything that we had
He trade the minivan for a four-door
Signed the contract, then took some photos
Seven-year-old me, next to Lolo
We were grateful, that's fosho though
I got the car when I was seventeen
Thirty dollars filled the tank, gas was all I need
Bumping GoldLink, driving 'round the streets
Hand out the window, that was paradise to me

[Verse 2]
Chilling in the backseat
Talking 'bout our lives
And I noticed something passed me
All the signs that I couldn't read
I was only tryna sleep
Decisions kept me up, see
Ego bigger than a truck, so nobody above me
What did I know? I was seventeen
Parking lots after class, it was nothing

[Verse 3]
If I'm honest, the whip was pretty modest
Hundred dollars, LA where you could find us
5-0 tried to fine us, went and cleared my sinus
Whip could clear the sonics, used to fear the chronic
I don't fear the reaper, I don't fear you either
My life like a feature: classic, praised; neither
I'm not tripping, Honda Civic whipping
If I got nothing else but my car, I'm happy living
Had a quota, lemon breeze aroma
Did what I was 'sposed to, now I'm getting older
I'm driving black now, tell them all to back down
I don't blast rounds, all I need is gas now
Part 2

[Refrain]
Back in '07, we bought the Honda
Asked if she was 'bout us, she said kinda
We gon' have to speed past all the drama
You residing deep down en mi alma

[Verse]
If I'm honest with you
If I'm honest with you, I don't wanna switch up
I just wan' be with you
It was fun in my youth, spent my time on the run
Caught a vibe in the coupe
Four-door whipping, hit the gas, start sprinting
Outside just living, my mind just tripping
Maybe I'm just different, know that I've been distant
So let's close the distance
Let's not talk business
You got a lot to pursue
But I do it all just for you
What does the future hold?
Who gives a fuck?
Hop in, let's hit the road
We'll try on our luck
[Outro]
Maybe I'm not the one
But I'm here for now
Driving up to the sun
Away from the clouds
Baby, you got shotgun
Whenever you wanna
Racking up miles up in
My lil' black Honda
