Memories |
Let’s take it back to the old school |
Let’s take it to Union Square |
Let’s take it back to the old school |
Wave your hands like you just don’t care |
Yeah |
I was raised in crack era Brooklyn |
I can recognize the smell of crack when It’s cookin' |
Man, I used to play hooky and dancing was jukin' |
Back when ratchet was a gun and a knife was for the juxxin' |
A severe lack of funds got 'em masking up like the villain |
I was in cyphers killing |
Trust them niggas couldn’t touch me but they had to feel it |
Not yet a butterfly, I was still a caterpillar ready to fly |
Got beautiful memories of mobbing like Genevieve |
Critical how the leave in this lyrical den of thieves, please |
Took a Greyhound to California |
Hit the good life Cafe, where the legends was styling on 'em Nonstop rhyming |
since Top Ramen, so start climbing now 'Cause the future is not promised |
So fond of these beautiful memories, unusual energies |
A Stand up dude, ain’t never bending my knees |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
Let’s take this way back to Oakland |
Let’s take this to Durant square |
Sunspot and Talib Kweli |
Put your hands in the fucking air |
Yeah |
These memories they just sent me on way back |
Raised up in Oakland, the dope and the Cadillacs |
Raised by a hustler, hustling, bring it back |
Customers to a substance deep up in the track, yeah |
Losing homies to violence all over bitches |
Just another day, oh the jealousy how it gets us |
I ain’t collared with the drama, dishonor, it’s only love |
Hit the barbershop, foothill, grazed at Golden Cuts |
At the Eastmont Mall, TWauz, I loved it all |
Took the stream around the world, no radio play at all |
Just believing in this hunger, Boy wonder would never crawl |
Made the underground scene from nothing, nothing at all Black Panther soul with |
flow, this is the O |
Mystik Journeymen, the Legends you already know |
Years ago met Talib when he crashed at my crib |
After that Greyhound ride showed him Telegraph rich Underground life yeah we |
did it |
Independent, just like I love my women |
We collecting these chips |
Classics shoulda had Mos Def and Luck on this |
This that Blackstar, Legend, underground shit |
And we was doing this at broke as SummerJam live and it was just hype still at |
maritime |
Damn that would be a great memory |
(Make the best memories ever, underground, underground) |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back |
(Make the best memories ever, underground, underground, underground) |
