[Chorus: Wiki]
Why you always talk like that? 'Cause I got heart like that
Walked right back to the same place started at
Baby face with a Starter cap
When you had your hair grown out like Colin Kaep'
All you did was ball and rap
Never got your wallet snatched 'cause you never had a wallet then
All you had was all them friends all the way back then
[Verse 1: Wiki]
Back then, at the time anybody rapping man then talking bout the past tense
Laughing 'cause everything is better now
Now not back then, it was better how?
You never got ass then, you was always sad then
You was always late to your classes
Had to wake up at 6 just to make it to the motherfucking train and catch shit
You was uptown, school was in Brooklyn
Explain to me why you miss that shit
Don't mean to be so nostalgic but, oof
I was on one back when I was so young, I was so dumb
Everything in front of me, now it seem like everything done
When I was Lil Wiki 550 split a dime in the dutch just to get me a blunt
You know what feeling I miss?
When you get to school on a Friday and everything lit, nobody giving a fuck
Whole city at our disposal, we run the streets and we roast you
We would get high, we would try any fucking drug that we was exposed to
We knew the delis that sold you brew but now all them delis is closed too, huh
Along with all of the spots we grew up and grew close to
[Bridge]
Back then, back then
Back then, back then
[Verse 2: Lansky Jones]
Hardwood classic throwback
Head band, wristband, Nike check
Lloyd Banks in my Discman
Murder rate job, we was off that
Copped mixtapes from the Nigerians
Lunch third period where all the girls bi-curious
And they all seem so mysterious
I was just 14, so green, so inexperienced
Just keeping up with the [?]
[?]
So I got a shitty full-time gig for sneakers
How I look in Phat Farm shell tops, hell no
When it hit fall I was in [?]
Put my clothes in Vogue, this [?] Jones
High school calling all weed strains "dro"
Queen shit like low throwbacks
Authentic du-rag, two-tone sack and Girbauds
Velcro straps [?]
Had a pair of [?] matched my conduct
My pops just passed, still my mind fucked
[?] for three years
Three bucks, [?] sealed up, they collecting dust
The females, I ain't really talk to them
Man that awkward phase felt awful huh
[Chorus: Wiki]
Why you always talk like that? 'Cause I got heart like that
Walked right back to the same place started at
Baby face with a Starter cap
When you had your hair grown out like Colin Kaep'
All you did was ball and rap
Never got your wallet snatched 'cause you never had a wallet then
All you had was all them friends all the way back then
[Outro]
Back then, back then
Back then, back then
