[Hook 1]
Ay word to Nas I want that rap sh** back
Word to Jay I want that rap sh** back, ay
Ay, word to Pac I want that rap sh** back
Word to Big I want that rap sh** back
And these people always ask me why you rap like that?
90s baby going crazy I don't lack like that
Shouts out all my real ones that want that rap sh** back
Young Rockie Chi-Town we brought that rap sh** back, amen
[Verse 1]
Remember working on my first tape
Rockie's modern life, a young n***a I'm just tryna get it right
Future bright I'm in junior college by my family house
I'm bumping College Dropout or that Reasonable Doubt
I'm on the couch high school was Dedication 1, Dedication 2
I wore that bape before you n***as ever knew, this is true
It's so Common I be chilling with my crew
They say the sky is like the limit so I'm praying through it too
Like
[Hook 2]
3K I want that rap sh** back
Mos Def I want that rap sh** back
Big L I want that rap sh** back
Big Pun I want that rap sh** back
And these people always ask me why you rap like that?
90s baby going crazy I don't lack like that
Shouts out all my real ones that want that rap sh** back
Young Rockie Chi-Town we brought that rap sh** back, amen
[Verse 2]
I played the Chronic way before I hit the weed
Learn them trailer park struggles, Marshall Mathers LP
And it's back to 2Pac it's all eyes on me
A Black album 03 we was burning CDs but
I can say no album made me feel like the Miseducation of the Queen Lauryn Hill
Or that Lupe Food and Liquor made me think a little quicker
I was just a lil n***a tryna see the big picture, yeah
Play Snoop Dogg, Doggystyle, knock 'em down
Still playing LL when them girls come around
Feeling like an Outkast so I took it out of town
Playing UGK cause I'm still underground
And I'm on my Jada sh** to the top we gon' make it
I still wish they had Rap City in the basement
As a youngin' they would always tell me that the game is always changin'
Well back to the future I'ma take it, take it
[Hook 3]
That n***a Cole brought the rap sh** back, n***a Kendrick brought that rap sh** back, yeah
My n***a Vic brought that rap sh** back, my n***a Chance brought that rap sh** back
And these people always ask me why you rap like that?
90s baby going crazy I don't lack like that
Shouts out all my real ones that want that rap sh** back
Young Rockie Chi-Town I brought that rap sh** back
Amen
