[Chorus]nBack in the day, rappin was a waynof life then became the price that we paynA lot of people say they liked it in the daysnof the plain old mics and stage before it changednn[Royce Da 5'9]nEnter the new wave of the MCnwho traded his dookie chain in for the latest inventionnlike the pager that since then became the two-waynThat hangs from the pants of the man of the new day (yeah)nDue to the pop radio play on the norm is debatablento any song that he do, probably gon' do somethinnon a stage with a goon walkin up on him (yeah)nHe came a long way from the boombox on the corner (yeah!)nPlus he quick to mention the MidwestnLittle bit of Twist', little bit of Westnmixed with a little East coast mixed with a switch of that FLOW!nFrom stuffin them tapes with the paper to recordnto discussin how major the paper cause the way he recordsnFrom the kick in the trunk, to wishinnhe can put out a hit, to puttin out hits on punk niggaznWho get away with singin over they whole RAPSnThat's why he spit like he been here befo', a throw-BACK goinnn[Chorus x2]nn[Royce Da 5'9]nEnter the new world of producin a new gimmicknThe future depends on you if you sterilenWhat you sold is your soul - to get back in mindnas you watch the climate of rap that's supposed to be cold, get hotnThe road traveled is lapped time and againnThough common I watched it go from gold to platinum to diamondnI watched watches go from silver to goldnTo the back road of behind the platinum and diamondsnFlow thrown like quarterbacks to bomb menGo like a motor, crawl and I'm goin like BRRRAT when I'm rhyminnAnd I ain't tryin to look back at my prime when I shinento say I was one of the best, after retirinnMy mind is amazin, findin my waynaround problems, I'm kinda shy in a waynIt's a whole lot I ain't say, like I honestly thinknI'm in the game that any of these days I'ma be king (yeah)nMost likely the flow like he LeBron James (yeah)nSome time and a condom away, from yo' wifey (yeah)nThose waitin they time with me who don't like menI pay you no mind like there ain't no line behind menFrom the same line as Kanye, most likelynto be most liked and I ain't gotta gloat lightlynYour whole staff's around, I'ma go laps around youncomin from goin back where they found younn[Chorus x2]
