1994

[Verse 1: Foure]
It was like 1994
All I had was raps and a drum machine
I ain't even have a dream yet
But then it got jumping like a trampoline
I remember listening to 2Pac
Hoping that my momma don't catch me
Walk around my room singing "Thug Life"
Twisting up my fingers in the mirror straight flexing
But that was the life that I lived
When I was just a kid and I thought I was bad (bad)
And they say I'm just like my parents
My heart from my mother my mind from my dad (from my dad)
So what you gonna do about it? (do about it)
This is my life I ain't acting brand new about it (brand new about it)
So maybe I should ask you about it
Since you acted like you about it
And like you knew about it

[Hook: Foure]
Came so far from where we started
Broken people so broken hearted
Heal my soul and make it new
Cause Lord I put my faith all in You

It was like 1994
All I had was raps and a drum machine

[Verse 2]
It was like 1999 (99)
All I had was lyrics in my notebook (notebook)
Never knew how to write a song (write a song)
Verse 60 bars long I ain't write hook (no hook)
I remember listening to Outkast (Outkast)
Hoping that my momma ain't find out (find out)
It was me and you, your momma, and your cousin too
Every single day that's all I played inside of my house (my house)
But that was the life that I lived
When I was just a kid and I thought I was bad (bad)
Had no idea that one day I'd be here
Making music you hear in your pad (yo crib, homie!)
So I just did what my heart felt (heart felt)
No way that you can judge that (judge that)
Real recognize real, we make music that you feel
And still got a deal, gotta love that (love that)

It was like 1994
All I had was raps and a drum machine
It was like 1994
All I had was raps and a drum machine
