Royce Da 5?9? - Back In The Days lyrics

Your rating:

[Chorus]

Back in the day, rappin was a way

of life then became the price that we pay

A lot of people say they liked it in the days

of the plain old mics and stage before it changed



[Royce Da 5'9"]

Enter the new wave of the MC

who traded his dookie chain in for the latest invention

like the pager that since then became the two-way

That hangs from the pants of the man of the new day (yeah)

Due to the pop radio play on the norm is debatable

to any song that he do, probably gon' do somethin

on a stage with a goon walkin up on him (yeah)

He came a long way from the boombox on the corner (yeah!)

Plus he quick to mention the Midwest

Little bit of Twist', little bit of West

mixed with a little East coast mixed with a switch of that FLOW!

From stuffin them tapes with the paper to record

to discussin how major the paper cause the way he records

From the kick in the trunk, to wishin

he can put out a hit, to puttin out hits on punk niggaz

Who get away with singin over they whole RAPS

That's why he spit like he been here befo', a throw-BACK goin



[Chorus x2]



[Royce Da 5'9"]

Enter the new world of producin a new gimmick

The future depends on you if you sterile

What you sold is your soul - to get back in mind

as you watch the climate of rap that's supposed to be cold, get hot

The road traveled is lapped time and again

Though common I watched it go from gold to platinum to diamond

I watched watches go from silver to gold

To the back road of behind the platinum and diamonds

Flow thrown like quarterbacks to bomb me

Go like a motor, crawl and I'm goin like BRRRAT when I'm rhymin

And I ain't tryin to look back at my prime when I shine

to say I was one of the best, after retirin

My mind is amazin, findin my way

around problems, I'm kinda shy in a way

It's a whole lot I ain't say, like I honestly think

I'm in the game that any of these days I'ma be king (yeah)

Most likely the flow like he LeBron James (yeah)

Some time and a condom away, from yo' wifey (yeah)

Those waitin they time with me who don't like me

I pay you no mind like there ain't no line behind me

From the same line as Kanye, most likely

to be most liked and I ain't gotta gloat lightly

Your whole staff's around, I'ma go laps around you

comin from goin back where they found you



[Chorus x2]
