on nostalgia, websters says:

'a severe and sometimes fatal form of melancholia'


american heritage:

'a bittersweet longing for things, persons, or situations of the past
the condition of being homesick; homesickness'


coolio:

when I was a kid I rode crates on a skate
and I ate everything momma put on my plate
niggas walked around packin bb guns
knock on your door and run, just for fun
went to the store and sold bottles for a nickel
feast upon a big bag of cheetos and a pickle
you could get a soda for less than quarter, and
people used to speak even if they didn't know ya
fought in the streets like little black soldiers
shake hands, and still be friends when it was over
we used to play tag and, hide & go seek, or
hide & go get it if we had a few freaks, but
now thangs changed, kids ain't the same
they bang, and slang, and blow out brains
wish I could go back but, wishing is for suckers
life was so simple then..
