Those were the days Now it's high school, lunch room's the scene And I'm ready to flip the routing In the cafeteria, period three And here I come with the JVC I go in my pocket and pull out a mic Plug it in, check one-two...alright Now who wanna show and prove their MC skills? A brother stepped forward and tried to get ill But when it came time to live out his name He kicked rhymes that all sounded the same But I did him in with a matter of time And he was done with one victorious rhyme He was shocked because he knew he was rocked Along with his classmates from off his block YO!, I'm telling you, I flipped his whole crew One against one or one against two Or three or four brothers who swore they can rhyme Battled me and got taken out every time From my style and my dope profile Plus the period of time that I rocked for awhile As a motivated, dominated supreme force Cultivated, activated cream and source The wise educated and born to be The one who would flip an MC Those were the days Related Lyrics Random lyrics: An Inmates Lullaby, Another Show, Aspirations, Betcha Thought We Couldnt Do It, Black Cat, Cogs In Cogs, Convenience (Clean And Easy), Design, Dogs Life, Dont sing a tune to yourself, Edge Of Twilight, Empty City, Experience, For Nobody, Free Hand, Friends, Funny Ways, Giant, Giant For A Day, Give It Back, Heroes No More, HIS LAST VOYAGE, I Am a Camera, I Lost My Head, Im Turning Around, Im sorry to have been so much of a bore, In A Glass House, Inside Out, Interview, Isnt It Quiet and Cold?, Isnt it quiet and cold walking all alone, alone?, Its Not Imagination, Its Only Goodbye, Just the Same, Knots, Little Brown Bag, Lying still, Memories Of Old Days, Mister Class And Quality?, MOBILE, Mountain Time, No Gods A Man, No Stranger, Nothing at All, Now she sits by the riverside, Number One, On Reflection, Pantagruels Nativity, Peel The Paint, Pentagruels Nativity, Other GeniusGZA song Lyrics 1112 Lyrics 4th Chamber Lyrics Amplified Sample Lyrics Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth Lyrics Beneath the Surface Lyrics BIBLE Lyrics Breaker Breaker Lyrics Cold War Lyrics Come Do Me Lyrics Crash Your Crew Lyrics Drama Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Giant Gentle Lyrics Gentle Giant Lyrics Gentleman Lyrics Gentlemen Lyrics Gentlemen Last Lyrics Gentry Bobbie Lyrics Genuwine Lyrics Geoff Moore Lyrics Geoff Moore And The Distance Lyrics Geoff Tate Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
