Back In Da Days Lyrics - Singles - Daforce

Back in da days 

Rap 

Back in da 80's wit my friend amarie 

if we ain't on tha streets , we playin Atari 

Looking out da window as the wind blows 

and we didn't know it can't last 4 ever 

the rockers verse the breakers loved tha lakers 

prep kids and all the jocks 

remembered when willis intialed his sox 

wouldn't leave home without a box 

Jackson and jagger in a state of shock 

Spencer 4 hire and a man called hawk 

Herbie Hancock and planet rock 

Can't forget Madonna and a man named prince 

and the 1st time i heard parliment 

Krs1 was tha man 2 be , feeling rakim & eric B 

and 2 short and mr T every little kid though he was bruce lee

Chorus 

Back in da days 

Rap 

It was different strokes , and different hopes 

watching good times and trying to cope 

many kids i knew died on the court 

didn't know nothing bout life support 

Anty told me yo stay inside 

cuz kids out hare have no love in dare eyes 

remember rick james , then all the hits came 

all dese little kids on da streets dey got game 

get a l'il dollars from da older girls 

but right behind em was guys wit jerry curls 

100 dollar kango , look how he stand yo 

peep his neck and how his jewelry dango 

remember star wars , remember rocky dares no tomorrow 

sista sledge , pointer sista's da dance be neutron in da boroughs 

I can feel it like phil , remember breaking to sugar hill

Chorus 

Back in da days 

Rap 

Every little baller thought he was magic johnson 

especially my friend philly thompson 

we all said nonsence 

and all dem old days won't come round again 

from a boy 2 a man 2 a gentleman 

worldclass middle man 

balling my head like haglar 

on da 1 , 2's made you stagga 

street kids , wit street names , and street fame 

street pain , Run da streets wit nick names 

dey switch lanes , dey run cain , dey jump train 

not sure if dey'll come back again 

but dose was da ole days 

thought i'd be singing like da ojays 

putting da ball in da hoops like MJ 

kick you in your head like bad news brown and sensai 

Chorus 

Back in da days 

Rap 

That's how it was in my world as a kid 

do as you do and this is wat i did 

reflections , made connections 

transformed 2 a mic and a brass section 

yes yes yall, wit a les paul 

1 strike blows like my name is segal 

1 strike swoop like an eagle play your position 

immitating in a mirroir and wishing, wit no compition 

Listen .. str8 up missin , 

all dem rap cats in da early days.. 

play dey records over for days 

bring it back , flip it , switch it many ways 

turn it over , mix it , add a little bass 

dat time was da time , da time of your life 

dat time of tha night , dat time's feeling right 

some sticks and a fight , if it aint right 

Chorus 

Back in da days
