ANTHM - '98 Do You Remember lyrics

[Hook] A trip down Memory Lane A trip down Memory Lane Thinkin' outside the box Gimme props for my slouch sox Slick with my rubber bands, who you tryna outfox 13 in this b**h Timberlands on, shirt clean in this beeyitch [Verse 1] Let's revisit for my childhood's sake The bathroom's where you find me late Momma knockin' on the door but my timbs in a grimy state Used that footlocker spray back in '98 Plus a toothbrush, type of a sh** that my momma hate But I ain't know no better A go-getter blowin nonexistent cheddar On my motherf**in' polo sweater I used to ask a lot of her The by-product of tryna cop that exotic Nautica and Ralph Lauren See my mouth would grin, bout to spend Poppin' tags at the outlet Cop an alpha male outfit then And that's the type of sh** that we did Why I loved it is no mystery, kid [Hook] Remember music videos had a world premiere Remember first day of cla** rockin new gear Remember thinkin bout summer through the school year Take me back to '98 [Verse 2] That's when Jay knocked it out the ballpark With that Hard Knock Life And crossed over and they all got hype In a carpool or school bus switchin 4 lanes With my discman screamin out "Money Ain't a Thang" No Jaguar or Ferrari You know I had that Black Star, Kweli Mos Def, Marcus Garvey They bombarded me with j**els A conscious rap party I could hardly keep up, but I did my best Money, Power, Respect Rockin The LOX at my fella's spot How's It Goin Down, Dark and Hell Is Hot Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood showin' that love Playin' DMX like I ain't done it enough A young buck explorin' a foreign feel Coppin' a rhyme book are they born with that sort of sk**? I used to daydream, nothin' was more than real Th spittin' with Big Pun, or performin' with Lauryn Hill Capital Punishment, G Rap flow So attracted to gutter sh** Comin' back with that other sh** I remember my n***a candidly handed me Aquemini, like Ant you down with the Dungeon Family? You goddamn right, Southernplayalistic Da Art of Storytellin', them others may have missed it And down south it was proven now Hear the sounds movin' out New Orleans, Master P and Juvenile Back in VA, I ran with my crew Who? Aaliyah, Missy, Timbaland & Magoo VA's finest, delivered it hard Like Allen Iverson, the hood's head n***a in charge Two Up, Two Down Do you remember?
