Thinking back to 88 the memories will live on |
| [00:28.93] |
The box of cereal and wrestling every saturday morn' |
| [00:31.49] |
I remember one day I was mowing grandpa's lawn |
| [00:34.15] |
I had the radio outside "You Got's To Chill" came on |
| [00:36.89] |
I used to run home from school for Rap City at three |
| [00:39.39] |
But now they only give the shorties ass and titties to see |
| [00:41.98] |
My homegirl said: "These rappers now-a-days is prettier than me" |
| [00:44.72] |
Whatever happened to days of Tribe and BDP |
| [00:47.31] |
We used to get up and run to the basketball court |
| [00:49.97] |
But now with everybody high NBA Live |
| [00:52.71] |
Is the closest thing we gettin' to sports |
| [00:54.19] |
These girls are 14 years old in they coochie cutter shorts |
| [00:56.74] |
It's innosence is lost |
| [00:58.24] |
But some things are still the same though, keepin' a nigga raw |
| [01:00.72] |
Chris is still rippin' Rick Flair still gotta the figured form |
| [01:03.30] |
Let's take it back to the essence |
| [01:06.01] |
So that the next generation could be happy with the presence |
| [01:08.98] |
JAin't like it used to be (Ain't like it used to be) |
| [01:12.17] |
When we were kids |
| [01:14.67] |
TThe 80's is crazy for the babies |
| [01:17.27] |
And now-a-days these little shorties amaze me |
| [01:19.64] |
JAin't like it used to be (Ain't like it used to be) |
| [01:22.70] |
When we were kids |
| [01:25.66] |
"Back in the day when I was younger" "Remember" |
| [01:27.60] |
"Back in the days" |
| [01:29.91] |
Way back, when Anni used to sit with us and talk |
| [01:32.29] |
And we was poor so we used to take the bus or walk |
| [01:34.90] |
My mom schooled me not to ever touch the rock |
| [01:37.44] |
Touch the white or cook cocaine in a pot |
| [01:40.18] |
Listening to Pac me and my brothers would box |
| [01:42.76] |
And write graffiti on the ground with the coloring chalk |
| [01:45.40] |
My brother was taught never hang with them gangs |
| [01:48.16] |
Cuz when them things bang you can lay in a box |
| [01:50.80] |
Take care what you rock just for sayin' your not |
| [01:53.33] |
From another side of town and the colors you rock |
| [01:56.02] |
Could your crib shot up like your mother is not |
| [01:58.53] |
Sound a sleep with hoax like the government got |
| [02:01.20] |
I suddenly thought; look how much the world changed |
| [02:04.11] |
And life in general dark nights and cold days |
| [02:06.62] |
Sittin' in hallway's listening to old J's |
| [02:09.25] |
Thinking of the old days, like P I reminice |
| [02:12.44] |
JAin't like it used to be (Ain't like it used to be) |
| [02:15.62] |
When we were kids |
| [02:17.99] |
TThe 80's is crazy for the babies |
| [02:20.36] |
And now-a-days these little shorties amaze me |
| [02:22.86] |
JAin't like it used to be (Ain't like it used to be) |
| [02:25.87] |
When we were kids |
| [02:28.83] |
"Back in the day when I was younger" |
| [02:30.87] |
"Back in the days" "REMEMBER" |
