Get Back To the Basics

get back to the basics busting fat laces running the bases it used to be cool to obey the golden rule yet that went out the door in 64 open the door for your neighbor then you can chill on a different ice cream flavor getting fat beats to the rhyme at the rhyme as a reason in the changing of the season walk with me talk with me through the passage of time get things in line went back to the old sand box playing jax bringing along your lunch box sack have I hit a tender nerve yet the time you'll never will forget start spreading the disease out living as you please best to get down on your knees homeboy talk a lot is that what he is doing you bit off more then you were chewing get back to the basics in flirting faces trading spaces all over each places remember is was customary to carry your book for your girl that was quite a thrill take to the limit one more time with Slick Rick & Doug E. Fresh putting you all to the test there was a lodi dodi in the house where we like to party cause Snoop can do that to so what's new today getting Eminem to stay free styling on Trump free stylying while the dials on snap shot moments of the past having so much fun with the hope that it would last the streets today move faster then ever before some pay a visit to cell block 9 but that is fine got Pumas on my feet spliff on my sleeve going to the dance hall scene breaking down rhymes all my critics can kiss my fat behind cause I'm doing fine Nas, Outcast & Drake never busted a move in such a fake for one step forward then two steps back turn your radio on to here the words of my favorite song with Akon featured with Fetty Wap drop it down with fire blowin it up in its purest desire ccause I want to take you higher this just it so let me begin cause I came here to win in my perfect ten suckers want to end me to but up the economy but bitches still on me but no I ain't phony sit back and relax as you bask in the vast expanse between space and time get back to basics as you remember when you were broke down to your last thin dime sipping on Rum with a hint of sugar for my teeth getting something sweet your a miracle baby ain't nothing a bit shady working on making that baby just maybe I get the hook up going stronger then ever before next you bit kicking it with a two bit whore screaming out more get back to basics to set the dial for one more time going to wine, dine & sixty nine holding my own when my hands on the phone but some insist to stay all alone life can be a struggle so bartender make my Martini strong like on the double working together like both Fred & Barney Rubble to stay out of trouble see ya on the flip side squeeze while you out busy as a bee going to walk that miracle mile in my hour of power in fullest of desire until someday you'll see your name up in lights never give up on the fight
