Brothers and sisters, I don′t know what this world is coming to!

Whassup, Missy? Timbo!This is, another, Missy Elliott (Hip-Hop! Yes!)

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! hahaha

What happened to those good old days? (Huh?)

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 (A guh-un)

It was all about good music y′all

It helped to relieve some stress (Huh?)

Ohh, we was under one groove y′all (Y'all)

So much love between North and West

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 day, hey hey

Hip-Hop has changed

Remember when we used to battle? (Uh huh)

On the block before the lights came on (Yeah)

Ohh! Mama said we would be straight A kids (Come on)

If we did our homework, like we knew those songs

Salt-N-Pepa, Rakim, and P.E

Hip-Hop has changed (J. Breezy, let's do it again, nigga)

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

Nigga, we rock it from the "Dre Day" to the Suge Knight

So fuck Chuck Phillips and Bill O′Reilly

If they try to stop hip-hop, we all gon' rally, nigga

Post Biggie and ′Pac I gotta hold down the city

Make a nigga wanna holla like Missy, but fuck it

Just let a nigga MC

The best rapper alive, unquestionably

If you riff on your EP, you gonna need an MD

So you gots to chill cause I kill at will

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 day, hey hey

Hip-Hop has changed

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!!)

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 day, hey hey
