[Preface] It's the return, and what I mean by return is the return to everything you love about hip hop [Chorus] Return... to the way we were before the influx of d** and money occurred Return... to the way we was before the rise of lies, fake players and thugs X2 [Verse 1] We bring it back now - face it Back to the basic. The track - Khalil laced it I run em like Asics Circle the globe.
