This one here

(Let's take a sec to think back) -→Buckshot

Ain’t nothin ever lost between us Evil Dee

Nahmean

(Let's take a sec to think back)

Boot C&Clik

It’s a framalama thing

(Let's take a sec to think back)

It went like this

(Think back) (think back) (think back)

As we go back…

1981 — the first year rap begun

The first time I saw a backwards spun

I was in my living room practisin

Watchin the tube, _Facts of Life_

_Different Strokes_ in the afternoon

_Scarface_ looked mean in the flicks

Everybody who pumped coke back then was fiendin for bricks

'86, no fades, afro tops

In those days your whole ave was the spot

The scene locked with Lee patches, Cazel glasses

Suede Pumas and rumors of rap not lastin

Till the class of '89 came through

High top fade, tailor-made Gucci suits

Jordan was ch&, Mike Tyson was &ed

Reagan was the pres and the border was a place to c&

Just think back like this

As you reminisce, reminisce

(Think back now)

When Erving said he had the monster

Baddest bitch in skin flicks was Heather Hunter

(Think back now)

Rosie Perez titties

_Def Comedy Jam_, the _Itty Bitty Titty Committee_

(Think back now)

When _Martin_ was on Jazzy Jeff, Fresh Prince Summertime was the song

(Think back now)

Buffalo was the spot

Snitches got stitches and you got jumped 'stead of gettin shot

Zone with me Come home with me Come home with me Picture in your mind, a place and a time

Where we all can go, don’t need dough to shine

All you gotta do is, be true to who you is

I’m original and God is my influence

Hip-hop, be bop, jazz, rock music

Palladium and Roof Top, Latin Quarters boomin

We keep it movin to the beats, tune in to the streets

The rumors and the passengers preach

Rap I master so I teach;

each I touch

Respect the power of the microphone in my clutch

Say ma, your little boy’s all grown up Hey y’all, I told you all we got is us

I love pops, he raised me on some good old soul

Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield and Nina Simone

Songs in the Key of Life to hold

When the streets get cold

Always focused when I’m reachin for goals

That’s PNC right behind me Let no man take us under, bee

And no bitch for that matter, ya heard me?

(Let's take a sec to think back)

This is for my 18 and under, 20 and over

Walkin round with the weight of they clothing on they shoulders

Look at me, 26 year old, years enfold

Drive a (?) 'bout a year old

Did the gold, stepped my game up to grade

Rosary throwback, exclusives and haze

Seen hoes and dough come and go Rememberin the reign of crack and power of dope

Witnessed miracles of babies bein born, niggas bein killed

Niggas gettin killed, babies born again

Showed your block love, Tekno Marine Breitling

The class of Lockman, new Jacob thing

Benz, 4, 5, 6

Truck, Navigator, Escalade, bitches want dick

Took it from the end of '89 through '99

I’m the nigga 2000 and beyond

Meadowlark Lemon

Wood-sevens on the god neck

They the ghetto park reverends (peace god)

Lee patches got snatched, d’s in the hatchback

With ease, nigga, pass that

Bennetton bag (?)

Niggas like, Son, you fly Yo, I can afford it Decept niggas, in the party we tangle

With anybody, jump on the train, punch Guardian Angels

Don’t believe, we put a stack on it Cops like, You can drink, put a bag on it Back in the days…

(Think back now)

What’s today’s mathematics?

Saturday Night Specials, now it’s automatics

(Think back now)

When crack appeared

VCR’s got stole, shorty asses disappeared

(Think back now)

IZOD, La Tigra, 8 ball coats

My man Earl (?)

(Think back now)

Karate flicks, Gucci kicks

Favorite team the New York Knicks

Think back now

Dem ah see how rapidly things change into the passage of time yah

Think back now

He, style we don’t borrow, we no lend

Go tell dem we ah set trend, yah

Yo (?) dem just can’t comprehend, yah

Yo, reset even though the times keep changin

Word is bond

Yo yo yo son

Remember goin Uptown, 125, youknowmsayin

in front of the Apollo and shit

standin there, went to take flicks and all that…

Think back now
