Skater Days

Four wheels and a piece of wood Whoever thought this would feel so good Riding around grinding and jumping Who would've thought this was actually something From skate parks to scrape marks Everyday was an adventure Riding down to the dairy queen wind in my hair Watching the world fly by watching as people stare They didn't know my name or where I was going I was the skater kid that's all they were knowing Adrenalin pumping around ever turn Watching my idols dying to learn After a while things sure did change Stair sets hand rails and curbs all looked so strange Not as foundation or landscape to adore To me they were everything I wanted and more Breaking bones and snapping decks After learning of sponsors I just wanted checks Years went on and I rode by Known as that skater kid but now skater guy Working now with college and bills Every now and then reliving thos thrills From kickflips to healflips varials to treys Nothing competes with my skater days
