Takin' It Back Lyrics - Kool Keith

Kool Keith 

Way before down South 

(Way before down South) 

Hip hop in Chicago 

(Hip hop in Chicago) 

Rap on the West coast 

(Rap on the West, rap on the West) 

Come follow me 

PS 53 classmate with Kenny Pound 

The Cold Crush Brother 

Watchin' Cassanova Lover, the master flower 

Keith Thornton, there's no other 

My class over at three with Bronx MC's 

The super imposer, cruisin' on the major deacon 

Quarts and blunts, sippin' Olde E on the weekend 

My girl Fatima, half black and Puerto Rican

Listen To Every Song Of The Summer Since 1958 In Our Ultimate Mega-Mix 

I'm movin' fast rate, Webster down to Bathgate 

A lot of guys was good but many came half weight 

The comp got bad, the city came half rate 

Think to the critics, I left them all in debate 

PS 53 

(I'm takin' it back) 

Junior high school 

(I'm takin' it back) 

147 

(I'm takin' it back) 

I went to Clinton 

(I'm takin' it back, come follow me) 

12 o'clock lunchtime, bangin' on the school table 

I was able more fatal to spin around like tornado 

Catchin' Batman and Robin, Green Hornet and Kato 

The main attraction was Grandmaster Flash action 

Photos 

I tell brothers Mean Gene was with the L Brothers 

Cordio Vex with Phase 2 drawin' flyers 

The crowd is fat, the people jumpin' over wires 

The 5 train runnin', the crew comin' down from Dyer 

Footline express, the last car but we don't fire 

Schlitz malt liq', the PAL gettin' higher 

With Union Ave up there, we used to watch stick up kids 

Go and laugh up there 

PS 53 

(I'm takin' it back) 

Junior high school 

(I'm takin' it back) 

147 

(I'm takin' it back) 

I went to Clinton 

(I'm takin' it back, come follow me) 

Cazal's in the place, girls peep my quarter fill 

Fur on the collar, the German Shepherd feel real 

Breakout and Baron in the club on the wheels of steel 

Kool Herc in Cedar Park, echoes down the hill 

Echo chamber, yes, yes, y'all 

When B1's was out with the orange lights, where was y'all? 

The Saigons, the Nomads, the Black Spades 

Alexander's and Juman's was the real spot 

ProKeds and Converse stayed real hot 

Turtlenecks and shirts, AJ's and overlap 

Stetson hats, bustin' over mean raps 

PS 53 

(I'm takin' it back) 

Junior high school 

(I'm takin' it back) 

147 

(I'm takin' it back) 

I went to Clinton 

(I'm takin' it back, come follow me) 

I'm takin' it back 

I'm takin' it back, come follow me 

I'm takin' it back 

I'm takin' it back, come follow me 

I'm takin' it back 

I'm takin' it back, come follow me 

I'm takin' it back 

I'm takin' it back, come follow me
