"Brothers and sisters!
Brothers and sisters, I don't know what this world is coming to!"
[Jigga] Wha**up, Missy? Timbo!
[Missy] This is.. another.. Missy
[Jigga] Hip-Hop! Yes!
[Missy] Elliott, exclusive
[Jay-Z]
Yes, uhh
One for the bu*ters, I came from the gutter
No I came from my mother but y'all know what I mean
Hov' is here to stay like permanent crease in your jeans
Me and Missy be the new +Tag Team+
"Whoomp! There It Is"
We like, Rae & Ghost, A.G. and Showbiz
We "Public Enemy #1," our "Uzi Weighs a Ton"
This is our house, Run! {*laughing*}
[Missy]
What happened to those good old days? {HA?}
When hip-hop, was so much fun
Ohh, house parties in the summer y'all (c'mon)
And no one, came through with a gun
It was all about the music y'all
It helped to relieve some stress {HA?}
Ohh, we was under one groove y'all (y'all)
So much love {HA?} between North and West
[Hook: Missy Elliott]
Go back in the day
British Knights and gold chains
Do the prep and cabbage patch
And wear your laces all fat
Back in the dayyyyyyyy, hey hey
Hip-Hop has chaaaanged
[Missy]
Remember when we used to battle?
On the block before the lights came on
Ohh! Mama said we would be straight A kids
If we did our homework, like we knew those songs
Salt-N-Pepa, Rakim, and P.E
D.M.C, and Heavy D
Yes! Daddy Kane, Slick Rick, too
MC Lyte ("Paper Thin") opened, doors for you and me, c'mon
[Hook]
[Jay-Z]
Young! J. Bizzy, let's do it again, n***a
Rough, the way it oughta be
From day KRS-One all the way up to Nineteen Naughty Three
To M.O.P., we Cold as Ice
n***a, we rock it from the "Dre Day" to the Suge Knight
So f** Chuck Phillips and Bill O'Reilly
If they try to stop hip-hop, we all gon' rally, n***a
Post Biggie and 'Pac I gotta hold down the city
Make a n***a wanna holla like Missy, but f** it
Just let a n***a MC
The best rapper alive, unquestionably
If you riff on your EP, you gonna need an MD
So you gots to chill cause I k** at will
Like solid water dude; y'all n***as don't get it
"k** at Will," solid water? Ice Cube
Ha ha, that's how hip-hop has evolved
Jay-Z's for President, I'm namin Ra as the National God
[Missy]
Me and Jigga, Jigga J-J-Jay-Hova
I rocks the mic right whether I'm pissy drunk or sober
Misdemeanor fo'-finger ringer I'm stupid FRESH
I've been hot since LL rocked the Kangol HAT
Yes yes, the yes yes, the yes y'alln
C'mon... AW YEA, AW YEA
Okay, me, that n***a Jigga, fresh dressed in the mornin
C'mon... AW YEA, AW YEA
[Hook]
{*ad libs and whistling*}
[Missy]
I wanna, go back in, time (let's go)
Feels like I, I wanna, go back in, time
Feels like I (Y'all remember "Self Destruction"?)
I wanna, go back in, time
(Where all the rap artists got on a record together?)
Feels like I, I wanna, go back in, time
(I used to love them days, no tension, let's go!!)
[Hook]
