[Verse One] [Blueprint] I'm sayin'... A lot of thangs change Fades and slang change Clothes and change change Back in the day bangin' Slick Rick and Dana Dane Airbrush jackets, fat laces, name plates Gold has come and gone, now platinum chains hang A Dee with white tees all rockin' the same thang Gazelles and finger waves to dreads and stunter shades Went from G. Rap & Kane to Kanye & Lil' Wayne I was a shorty then, I couldn't even stay up late Still caught the bug when David Bowie sang of fame Went from Reganomics, full black in '88 To Dre and The Chronic, red and blue to gang bang Big a** computers, punch cards and mainframes Now a little microchip can do all the same thangs It's more modern now, I'm tryin' to maintain It's all behind me now but things still seem strange It's been a couple of years But Greenhouse is still here Had to figure out where we go from here but when I looked at the past it was crystal clear I'm talkin' VCRs, Betamax, VHS High buyer TDKs and grey Maxell ca**ettes Now it's Netflix, TiVo and On-Demand The d**h of the daily paper, get your news on the net CDs, they 'bout to be gone next It's all about your cell phones and Bluetooth headsets Used to have the fliest Walkman Now my Iphone give me GPS directions while I'm walkin' Went from member's only, Lee jeans and Izod To?, Evisu jeans and Ipods We used to actually sit down and write letters Now it's all Facebook, Myspace, Twitter Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Michael Jordan Kobe Bryant, King James, Tim Duncan If you livin', you gotta love it The sh** you feel the most is the sh** you never saw comin'
