1995

[Verse 1]

Before Facebook and bullshit raps
There was time when emcees used to buss sick tracks
Now don’t get mad I’m not saying you can’t spit
Some of you wasn’t born and some of you was kids
I was fifteen born in 1980 so that’s '95
Year of the some of the best albums of all time
If I was you I’d download only built for cuban links
Group Home, Living Proof was deeper than you think
E-40 dropped In a Major Way
Made up his own words that’s why we all say it’s all good
And Nine had Nine Livez
Whatchu Want Nine? Phat beats for my rhymes
AZ Doe or Die had the double time flow
While the Pop charts were dancing to Cotton Eyed Joe
Where did he come from, where did he go?
I was watching Biggie on VHS in The Show
Showbiz and A.G. dropped Goodfellas
Cellar Dwellers came out with Good Dwellers
Mobb deep dropped The Infamous
I changed my rhyming style like theirs, but people weren’t into it
Mic Geronimo dropped The Natural it was nice
The radio was killing Coolio with Gangster's Paradise
Big L Livestylez ov the Poor & Dangerous
Out there brothers boom boom boom were more famous in '95

[Verse 2]

Next time you're in a jam and you hear Brooklyn Zoo?
That’s O.D.B. I paid 15 quid for the CD
I was in the studio working
A young kid
My hairstyle, was the blue gel with the curtains
They called me Fat Boy from Def Jam, it was funny
I had the tape of Lost Boyz legal drug money
Lee Ramsay was the best off the top
Pure Genius dropped, Undercover
When the Notts thing popped
Westwood play my first track I was over the moon
But thought my verse was wack
I was introduced to 279 on choice
Rapped American, but Cappo used his own voice
Junior M.A.F.I.A. came out, R&B friendly but I was more Fat Joe Jealous One’s Envy
GZA said it was a Cold World and he was right
But I was up late school night watching New Jersey Drive in '95

[Verse 3]

Michael Jackson dropped the Earth Song
Think twice gave Céline Dion, 7 long week’s at number one
But I bought Bone Thugs-n-Harmony
But couldn’t spit the words to any of the songs
The fresh style was amazing, around the time that I started blazing
Nights out became days in
Tupac was Against the whole World, and rumour was he was hitting Biggie's girl that’s a year before
He passed away, but that’s another story for another day
And you know it well anyway
I was listening Styly Cee on a Saturday
Heatwave Radio in my room I would rap away
He played a tune called The Points, 9 minutes long
Like it was my favourite joint
Redman killed it, you better start putting on helmets in '95
