Pegz - Back Then lyrics

Yeah! back then didn't need the buzz, russian alex had reebok pumps Big gaz had nike t dubs , everybody wanted nice sneakers I saved up for a pair of jordans and spent all day dubbin' tapes for walkmans Who remembers ice T was king, flat tops were in, swatch's were bling I couldn't comprehend my sisters intrepity, Mohawks, cherry dogs, dead kennedys Pegz memories are bonified, but perceptions change over time Yeah I still love cars and motorbikes, give me coconut sauce and a bowl of rice Keep my soul alive, control the mic's, bruce lee versus poltergeist Back then wasn't easy, back then things worked out, back then i wish you were now Back then wasn't easy, back then things worked out, back then i wish you were now Duncan , trams and cops and gumbys, menzies ave was a real Jumani Winsor flats, St Kilda junkies, steal your money like which bank? Grls didn't seem so superficial, levi jeans and a blue light disco Lets go back when baseball caps meant racking cans, police harrasment, star wars street asa**in, collectors p**n i feed the pa**ion Boot legs from central station, KRS One's revelation, Knowlegde and self preservation, f** racism and president Reagan, remember days when i first rappin' cabs were black white Back then wasn't easy, back then things worked out, back then i wish you were now Back then wasn't easy, back then things worked out, back then i wish you were now Everyone had humble intentions Dj Koopz had a couple of lessons, Belcrives double casets decks, Tandy mikes with the budget connections, back then i scrubbed floors and packed shelfs and left school to get away and hang out, phone boxes, pinball parlours, showin off like an ignoramus, whole crew had a crush on Tiffany, and got played like a mozart symphany , Bronx __________, compton attitude, flanoulette shirts and adidas parachutes, bomber jackets turtle ray bans, new balance purple stained hands, little ben got burnt by spray cans, and I'm still hearin' verbarations Back then didn't need the buzz, back then hadn't seen enough back then always dreaming off b-girls in the cla** room steaming hot homeboys at the station been hard beat box on the train MC in the park gettin chased by cops piss in the yards Back then i lived the meaning of art Back then wasn't easy, back then things worked out, back then i wish you were now Back then wasn't easy, back then things worked out, back then i wish you were now
