Damn screens Kids don't come upstairs with grass stains on they jeans No playing tag at night, no more sundown freeze No more falling off they bike peroxide on knees Geez I ain't seen a double Dutch in years What happened to skelly, no more tops hitting squares? I used to front flip off the fence, backflip off the swing Somebody dared, you had to do it to be playground king! Walked across the monkey bars, rubber mat so far Something crazy drove by I screamed that's my car! Threw rocks up on the roofs they couldn't match my arm And manhunt lasted long, we couldn't catch Taiquan shit... Red quarter water water ask ya man to have a sip Pack of now and laters and a quarter bag of chips Never would I ever thought a game of catch and kiss Would be something that these kids would have to miss... imagine this... Phone screen, tablet screen, computer screen 80 inch TV screen, I never seen So many ways to look away from the world These screens raising ya sons, baby sittin' ya girl So many screens... Everyone say hi. You're on a screen...

It's like every single day involves a double tap Used to beg moms can my boys have some fun wit me? Off the top rope was the dresser, WWE Now my son wear headsets running through the trees Playing Call of Duty, guess that's what they calling company Was known everywhere, couldn't front on my team These kids don't go anywhere man they front of them screens Phone screen, tablet screen, computer screen 80 inch TV screen, I never seen So many ways to look away from the world These screens raising ya sons, baby sittin' ya girl So many screens... Everyone say hi. You're on a screen...
