[Intro: DJ Young Maise]
Don't stop!
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
We comin' to you loud, from [?]
Well, we got [?] of un
[?] special invited guest
[?]
[Verse 1: Kuniva]
Back in the day, I had the whole [?]
Right before my home, [boys?], got the crack movin'
"I fell in love with hip hop, Mom"
'Cause me and my brother [out?]
['Cause we were in the back movin'?]
She said we act stupid when we heard them [verses?]
Full of curses, racial slurs
Catching purses
My addiction worsened when I got to battle [and it started servin'?]
Rappers in high school
It was me with my crew, just having fun with it
We felt so alive, [everyone was at the?] Hip Hop Shop and so [?]
I remember battlin' Buzz, the first day we met
Proof called [?], we just gave each other [hugs?]
When me and Em got it on, I was in his zone
And when I lost I was heart-broken ridin' home
I appreciate the past now that I'm grown
I guess you don't know what you got until it's all gone
[Hook]
Back in the day
We used to [fight, we never shoot it out?]
Back in the day
[?] school [?]
Back in the day
We hit the Hip Hop Shop on Saturday
Back in the day
Oh, how I love [?] today
[Verse 2: Bizarre]
[?], my philosophy
[?], EPMD
Hip Hop Shop, I'm tryna get better
So much pressure, I wanna get fresher
[?]
Fresh [pair of?] [?], girls lovin' [?]
[?]
Junior high, lookin' at the sky
[?] would pass me by
[?] and my boy Buzz
Kuniva was [?] with Dirty Doz'
Reminiscin' about back in the day
[?] I wouldn't be Bizarre today
[Hook: DJ Young Maise]
Back in the day
We used to [fight, we never shoot it out?]
Back in the day
[?]
[?] school [?]
Back in the day
[?] to the original Hip Hop Shop
We hit the Hip Hop Shop on Saturday
Back in the day
[?]
Oh, how I love [?] today
[?]
[Verse 3: Swifty McVay, DJ Young Maise]
I'm in [?]
3-2-3 [?] [?]
When rappers gettin' they ass rich
[And then now, it's cycles?]
The cops decided to stay silent
'Cause they understood [?]
[?] like [?]
[Proof would?] grab the mic and freestyle
[?] that I'm lazy
He gave me the mic, and now we crazy, [man?]
We got near like a motherf*ckin' dog with [rabies?]
Alcohol and all, I even used [to let him forward?]
On the floor, or [?] everyone want battlin', shit is raw
Seven niggas in the car
Park in front [of the Smoking Bomb?], [?]
Squash it up some more
[It's a lot that we?] explore
[?] niggas [?]
Your lyrics would [the sword?]
Your words [would the?] bullets you're packin' inside your jaw
[Then he reacted like an?] M-16 [and?] sat a war
[Hook]
Back in the day
We used to [fight, we never shoot it out?]
Back in the day
[?] school [?]
Back in the day
We hit the Hip Hop Shop on Saturday
Back in the day
Oh, how I love [?] today
[Outro: DJ Young Maise]
