Missy Elliott - Back in the Day текст песни

brothers and sisters!

Brothers and sisters, I dont know what this world is coming to!

[jigga] whassup missy? timbo!

[missy] this is.. another.. missy

[jigga] hip-hop! yes!

[missy] elliott, exclusive

[jay-z]

Yes, uhh

One for the butters, I came from the gutter

No I came from my mother but yall know what I mean

Hov is here to stay like permanent crease in your jeans

Me and missy be the new +tag team+

whoomp! there it is

We like, rae & ghost, a.g. and showbiz

We public enemy #1, our uzi weighs a ton

This is our house, run! [laughing]

[missy]

What happened to those good old days? {ha? }

When hip-hop, was so much fun

Ohh, house parties in the summer yall (cmon)

And no one, came through with a gun

It was all about the music yall

It helped.. to relieve some stress {ha? }

Ohh, we was under one groove yall (yall)

So much love {ha? } between north and west

[chorus: missy elliott]

Go back in the day

British knights and gold chains

Do the prep and cabbage patch

And wear your laces all fat

Back in the dayyyyyyyy, hey hey

Hip-hop has chaaaanged

[missy]

Remember when we used to battle? (uh-huh)

On the block {ha? } before the lights came on

Ohh! mama said we would be straight a kids (cmon)

If we did our homework, like we knew those songs

Salt-n-pepa, rakim, and p.e. {ha? }

D.m.c, and heavy d

Yes! daddy kane, slick rick too (oh-ooh!)

Mc lyte (paper thin) opened, doors for you and me, cmon

[chorus]

[jay-z]

Young! j. bizzy, lets do it again nigga

Grew up the way it oughta be

From day krs-one all the way up to nineteen naughty three

To m.o.p., we cold as ice

Nigga we rock it from the dre day to the suge knight

So fuck chuck phillips and bill oreilly

If they try to stop hip-hop, we all gon rally nigga

Post biggie and pac I gotta hold down the city

Make a nigga wanna holla like missy, but fuck it

Just let a nigga mc

The best rapper alive, unquestionably

If you rip on your +ep+ you gonna need an +md+

So you gots to chill cause I kill at will

Like solid water dude; yall niggaz dont get it

Ha ha, thats how hip-hop has evolved

Jay-zs for president, Im namin ra as the national god

Misdemeanor fo-finger ringer Im stupid fresh

Okay, me, that nigga jigga, fresh dressed in the mornin

Feels like i, I wanna, go back in, time

Feels like I (yall remember self destruction? )
