8
Nero
9
Yeah, like it's 1995.
10
The girls with the doodoo braids as they walking by
11
Got the cornrows on with the overalls, one strappin' it
12
Everybody kicking and they maxin and relaxin it
13
Fellas got J's on the court and they attackin' it
14
You better watch your kicks somebody contemplatin' on jacking 'em.
15
We in a Brooklyn state of mind feelin fine,
16
Like I just sipped a bottle of the finest wine.
17
But it might all change in a second
18
Some funny brothers comin' down the block so we protected
19
All the niggas rushin to the stoop, cause we checked 'em
20
And then blue came through,
21
That's when everybody scattered
22
Nobody wanna see a sidewalk with blood splatter
23
Uh, baby cause we matter
24
I remember walking to the corner store for nutriment
25
Chillin' in the park, swingin' after dark, life wasn't really hard
26
That's when Biggie Pac was the realest niggas
27
And that's when Rakim had the illest lyrics
28
Redman and Method man was some crazy niggas.
29
And yea Nas he always was a conscious figure
30
I see and know that all of y'all are feelin' me
31
I'm wishing that I could take a time machine
32
And we can go back to the finer things
33
Then we can wake up from the crazy dream.
34
Chorus (x2):
35
Like like it's 1995
36
Like like it's 1995
37
Like like it's 1995
38
I'm lookin' fresh I'm lookin' fly
39
Like it's 1995
40
Bridge:
41
Aahh, I'm lookin' so fly,
42
Like it's '95
43
Yeah, yeah.
44
I'm feelin so fly,
45
So fresh and fly
46
Like it's '95
47
(Said you rockin' with The Koolest)
48
Yeah, yeah.

((Dan The Don))
50
Uh, Knicks jersey and my timbs on
51
Feeling like Pac in Above the Rim dawg.
52
This song is for that back in the day
53
That juicy in the tape deck
54
R.I.P. to Big Smalls
55
(baby, baby)
56
Back when these streets was real hard
57
Go through the wrong neighborhood and get got
58
When niggas on the west was hittin' that crip walk
59
Back when they was yelling one time for hip hop
60
I'm feelin' like it's 1995
61
Bumpin' De La Soul and the Tribe
62
Smoking blunts gettin' high
63
Hit the subway catch a ride on this New York city type of vibe.
64
So tell 'em gimme the mic and we gon rhyme tonight
65
Man, put yo hands up and wave 'em side to side
66
At the crib watching David Hasselhoff
67
Michael Knight, Michael Knight, Michael Knight
68
Uh, Got my box fade looking right
69
If I was from up north I'd probably be the Brooklyn type
70
Man ain't no such thing as half way crooks,
71
Mobb Deep told you don't be acting shook tonight
72
More bars than Riker's Island when I do this.
73
Back when ODB was straight wildin' with the Wu Click
74
Cash rules everything, I'm trying to get my crew rich.
75
1995 and you rockin' with The Koolest.
76
Chorus (x2):
77
Like like it's 1995
78
Like like it's 1995
79
Like like it's 1995
80
I'm lookin fresh I'm looking fly
81
Like it's 1995
82
Shimmy shimmy shimmy, shimmy yam, shimmy yay
83
Yeah, from the home of the Dodgers, Brooklyn squad
84
Shimmy shimmy shimmy, shimmy yam, shimmy yay
85
Ooh, Ooh, baby, I like it raw.
86
((Napoleon Da Legend))
87
Listening to music laced with Cuban on my neck
88
Recording sessions at the studio with a cassette
89
Swords made of liquid and it would slice through the drums
90
Rappers shook us every verse had to be nice in the sun
91
Rhyme schemes like a stepped out of a time machine
92
The top emcees had to have the livest steez
93
Slang spoken in a language that's broken
94
the fans were open hand,
95
Wrote it, god tampered and broken the man
96
Stoled the art,
97
Started out in the park
98
And got commercial
99
Then it got controversial
100
And cops wanted to search you
101
We was lurkin' through the dark before the spotlight hit us
102
And the magazines used to want to spotlight the realest
103
We're illest.
104
Where commense sense would start a resurrection
105
Total recall nowadays erasing my recollection
106
Of that feeling I was getting when I banged it in the whip
107
And if you sound corny, fans were abandoning your ship.
108
Trash were last, like a flash in a pan
109
Before Instagram rap or paint a picture for the fans
110
Remember when verses used to throw you a jewel
111
Pete Rock asked, will they reminisce over you?
112
Styles were different, wild with the visions
113
Beautiful songs were made from a foul way of thinking
114
Must be something in the water they drinking
115
That gave rise to some of the illest back in 1995.
116
Respect
117
Shimmy shimmy ya, shimmy yam, shimmy yay
118
Yeah, from the home of the Dodgers, Brooklyn squad
119
Shimmy shimmy ya, shimmy yam, shimmy yay
120
Ooh, baby, I like it raw.
121
Shimmy shimmy ya, shimmy yam, shimmy yay
122
Yeah, from the home of the Dodgers, Brooklyn squad
123
Shimmy shimmy ya, shimmy yam, shimmy yay
124
Ooh, baby, I like it raw.
