Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I've never told

Hey man, the language, brother

Motherfucker, this ain't back in the day

Statik, what up?

L O X in this joint

This ain't back in the day

Yeah

Mother, mother

Motherfucker, this ain't back in the day

Day, day

This ain't back in the day

Back, back in the day

[Verse 2]

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

[Verse 3]

Bumping that Statik

With the automatic on my hip

Blue whip, navy paper plane

No, I ain't a crip

We used to have the hallway fogged up

Smoking reefer

Yeah, I went to school but KRS was the teacher

[Verse 4]

And Abel had to hustle hard

To get fresh for Easter

Instead of celebrating Christ

I beat the goose twice

And fucked some lil' bitch on the steps

I do reps with these new rappers

It's cool though

The UFC, I'm still Judos

They hot right now

I'm like kudos

But fuck that

[Verse 5]

Yo, I like that new money

Shit done changed on the block

So, I don't reminisce

Even though I love Pete Rock

I give you bars

No microwave raps

I can take it down south

But it's gon' be my version of trap

Don don, the God

Money is long

I can't judge a artist off one song

But you don't hear me tho

[Verse 6]

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

Turn it up loud, they ain't listening good enough

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't

[Verse 7]

This ain't back in the days

If it was, then ****'ll sound different

And give you a pound different

I don't hate the trap

But give me that boom bap

Yeah, the 808

Eating at the beats, drill the 808

Told the owner Sal

Veggies and the power

I used to freestyle for Akh

For a bottle of blue now

[Verse 8]

No MTA Cards

Hoppin' the turnstile

To catch the train home

Got your ass whipped

You brought the pain home

The days when you knocked on your man's door

Yelled to the window

So he could come outside

Drink a forty, light weed

And y'all go and knock the grams off

Had to have hands

Or your shit was gettin' ran, dog

[Verse 9]

Grew out a new handers in the sand, yo

Forty-five and the war, wished that was ten, yo

Thank God for this rap shit

Clearly though

Back in the day shit was real

But you don't hear me tho

[Verse 10]

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't

[Verse 11]

**** cross town tryna bomb me

I had the certified army

'Fore I knew it was foul to harm salami

If they caught you doing some bullshit

They tell your mommy

Win, lose, or draw

Gotta go out if a **** try me

When Jenny hooked up with Lionel

I had the Sugar Hill vinyl

Before crack hit

It was just winos

[Verse 12]

Riots and looting

Park jams with no shooting

When **** pops was hooping

Heavy prostitution

Pirate radio was officially on deck

Staying up late night

With the tissue and the cassette

Hip hop is everything I got

Around this time

I was hooked on the King of Rock

[Verse 13]

I just wanna rap

I'm a go give this thing a shot

Looking back, I'd have never thought

This thing'll pop

Nah, right now I'm proud

To be a part of the family

And you standing there just looking at me

But you don't hear me tho

[Verse 14]

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

But you don't hear me tho

[Verse 15]

Motherfucker, this ain't back in the day

This ain't back in the day

Mother, mother

Motherfucker, this ain't back in the day

This ain't back in the day

Back, back in the day

But You Don't Hear Me Tho

But You Don't Hear Me Tho
