Kanye Sample: n***as had protools I had no tools karaoke machine f##k it Im Oldschool
Intro: Oh yeah, here we go again yall
Verse:
They say the Old school is where the people at
The new school needing food well Im a feed you that
Most of the dudes thats on, I ain't believing that
Need credibility like experian, equifax or transunion
Can't stand your music make no sense like giving crips a blood transfusion
(Ha Ha) too many lost in illusions one minute yah nice then your not they got a mood swing
(Talking)
No what I mean im from that technique turntable era man
Verse:
Adjust your tape deck press record they say you took the sidewalk and now the streets is yours
He streched out can't beef no more money came up short like your 3ft 4
Had the peanut bu*ter timbs with the cream valour hot songs sleep on me when you sleep in a morgue
Dear Lord help me find my strength it seems like nobody represents but....
Kanye Sample: F**k it Im oldschool
Talking: Rappers trying to act all s**y and stuff man, you ain't cute
Verse:
Now the next episode is on, got the old school bracelets Im golden arms
Cruising through B-more homeless storm black fitted hat symbol of the O is orange
Knocking 2Pac from Radio raheem type boom-box copping a whip sicker then the flu shot
Hoping out of bed reaching in the closet out the hood about to catch the train like Mr. Rogers
That was back when I was car-less before I knew that dames would blow dudes like the old school Nintendo cartridge
Before the wood grain was on the arm rest or 12 grade when I got my date out that prom dress
Before L puttem on before the bomb threats from Taliban we had it covered like an avalance
Was day dreaming had the part with the fade leaning, skin color copper tone like the penny with abe lincoln
Its Mardi Gras young baby you know I throw j**els rocking something cla**ic yeah
Kanye Sample: F**k it im oldschool
Talking: Hip Hop is such a beautiful thing stop screwing it up
Verse:
I am smoother than CL with Dames holla
Molding chics create women like its weird science
80's-90's fellas know I live through it
From fab-5 Freddy had the sweater of Freddie Krueger
Bob Marley shot the sheriff dog I shot the j**eler
Cuz im old school like black medallions shaka zulu
Survive the crossfires counting unmarked dollars
Bullets hit car tires skidding in the parks projects
At the same time the hood was grimey momma kissed me on the cheak said "You gonna be somebody"
But thats an old school saying though, been in this game for a minute I ain't playing though
All them slangs and those gimmicks yall in slavery Yo
I mash like potatos baby I am gravy Yo
Legendary burn your trees I get the paper Yo
Spending money all my life I can save my soul
Don't be offended when you speak and I dont know you
Your just a baby boy
Kanye Sample: F**k it im old school
Talking: I ain't even gonna laugh no more man
Hook:Repeat twice
I done told you and showed you Im older now got the world on my shoulders
From the skies to the frozen ground gravity could hold me down
