What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I calculate that eighty-five was the year
2
I first grabbed the pen, daydreamin' of the cheers
3
Ahead from rockin' shows, no Girbauds that sag
4
The windbreaker suits and backspins that was mad
5
I stress progress roll joints at my rest
6
Till the ill wee hours and I knew it was the best
7
I hit mad spots, many crews got dropped
8
While I was gettin' props niggaz was dealin' on the block
9
Stayin' in crib on the weekends was Marley Marl
10
Was freakin' the cuts, Mr. Magic was speakin'
11
That's how I got my first taste, makin' tapes
12
Till the rhyme skill was great and my style would escalate
13
Practice made my perfect tactics
14
Now my dap gets clap, 'cause I'm the rap snap fanatic
15
But now in nine-trey I got the T-Ray track
16
And my trunks, my roots are growin' styles from whayback
17
Turn my whayback
18
Back in, back in the days
19
Turn my whayback
20
Back in, back in the days
21
I flash back to fat Kangol hats with plastic
22
Back when steppin' on kicks in eighty-six got your ass kicked
23
Bombers and sheepskins were common when I first started rhymin'
24
Still I found time to go bombin'
25
Me and my pals rocked Cazals with no glass
26
Dark flavored Clarks, Lee Denims off the ass
27
Back when Mr. Magic had it goin' all the way on
28
The beat with BDP, added flavor like a crayon
29
Indeed MC's would represent with the skills
30
But now in ninety-three a lot of them can get the dillz
31
It seems like a little sumthin' missin' in the mix
32
But now I got a deal, so it's up to me to fix
33
When niggaz put me up on with funky raps to cut on
34
Word is bond if I hear another wack rap song
35
I might snap and it's an actual fact
36
That I'ma kick it like that, 'cause this is strictly 'bout the whayback
37
Turn my whayback
38
Back in, back in the days
39
Turn my whayback
40
Back in, back in the days
41
Turn my whayback
42
Back in, back in the days
43
Turn my whayback
44
Back in, back in the days
45
Like that y'all, it's like that y'all
46
It's like that that, it's like that y'all
47
Like that y'all, it's like that y'all
48
It's like that that, it's like that y'all
49
Aww man damn, whayback things was kinda fat
50
Had the Godfather knot, a Starter hat, things are kinda wack
51
Now, packed up, my cardboard and stepped away
52
I didn't have a choice, the culture was slayed
53
B.D. had died and things were dissapearin'
54
The West coast was here and all these wack beats appearin'
55
DJ's were breakin' down record store doors
56
To get the Biz Dance and the Chante Moore's
57
Peace to Buck Four, Rocksteady on the floor
58
New York and Dynamic crews plus many more
59
Remember the time when you didn't pack a nine
60
Niggaz just came to hear some, funky ass rhymes
61
But all of that's over, 'cause brothers wanna act up
62
No clubs to go to, they'll just pack rap up
63
That's how the media wants it to stop
64
So peep the verse and last showin' of Graffiti Rock
65
So check it, the brothers wanna wreck it
66
To get what's expected, 'cause hip-hop, should be respected
67
Gotta get it back to get it on track
68
Artifacts kickin' styles illy on the whayback
69
Like back when my Timberlands were only size sixes
70
I used to take pictures shootin' spitballs at bitches
71
Cross New Jersey Transit just to see a rapper kick it
72
But now I ain't with it, 'cause niggaz just ain't worth the ticket
73
Shit man, I remember jams that were slammin'
74
Gettin' me and my man in, was harder than backgammon
75
DJ's would scratch back to back from boom baps
76
And rappers with real raps, could drop shit real fat
77
But now kid, as I recollect, rappers out who caught wreck
78
Respected, just got stuck up in my tape deck
79
Real deal hip-hop, when Biz used to flip-flop
80
His fat ass, on stage'd do a dance, in busted Reeboks
81
Niggaz musta forgot, when real rhymes was hot
82
'Cause now if you ain't gold, you ain't got no props
83
But fuck that, I'm above that, I don't play that
84
The Artifacts staff drops math about the whayback
85
Turn my whayback
86
Back in, back in the days
87
Turn my whayback
88
Back in, back in the days
89
Turn my whayback
90
Back in, back in the days
91
Turn my whayback
92
Back in, back in the days
93
It's a demo
94
Back in, back in the days
95
You gots to chill
96
Back in, back in the days
97
South Bronx
98
The Bri to The Bridge
99
South Bronx
100
Back in, back in the days
101
Jimbrowski that's what it is
102
Back in, back in the days
103
Like that y'all, it's like that y'all
104
It's like that that, it's like that y'all
105
Like that y'all, it's like that y'all
106
It's like that that, it's like that y'all
107
Like that y'all, it's like that y'all
108
It's like that that, it's like that y'all
109
Like that y'all, it's like that y'all
110
It's like that that, it's like that y'all
