A.L.T. - I'll Take You Back lyrics

"Take it back" "Take it back"
"Take it back" "Take it back"

I take you back in my past
I used to live life fast
And yo, it wasn't shit to let the 38 blast
I had it going on with the bitches and hoes
Too yo, come to think about it
So did my whole crew
We bumped the old school jams
From the east coast
We was the baddest Mexicans out of East Los
Back in the days, many crews got hushed
It seems every night
Me and my homies got rushed
But we never back down
Even if we got beat down
We came back next week to the same town
And we was ready for them
But they still figure
That they could do us so
Tiny pulled a steel trigger
I had a 38 special, not a AK
As we sped away, Tony G was on kayday
Mama told me, "Yo, Al
You better change your ways"
And I'm a take you way back in the days
And I'm a

"Take you back" "Doo doo, doo, doo"
"Take you back"
"Doo doo, doo, doo" And I'm a take you back
"Take you back" "Doo doo, doo, doo"
"Take you back"
"Doo doo, doo, doo" ("Way back")

Back in '83
We hit the party like fifteen deep
I kept the chrome in my
Jacket so nobody'll creep
Way back when, bitch's hair was fifteen feet
And the homies had the stray cat strut look
Now I'm a open up the book to another page
And how I rock a house
Party with no fucking stage
Crack the 40 and it's on
Yo, tilt the 40 and it's gone
But my homie Tiny O always had my back
And a trained pitbull that
Was trained to attack
Now, put the system in the backyard (Yo)
And when the cops come, act hard
Now the powers on, and the jams come
Mama told me, "Yo, Al
You better change your ways"
And I'm a take you way back in the days
And I'm a

"Take you back" "Doo doo, doo, doo"
"Take you back"
"Doo doo, doo, doo" And I'm a take you back
"Take you back" "Doo doo, doo, doo"
"Take you back"
"Doo doo, doo, doo" ("Way back")

Me and my primo, we was rolling drop
And we was dodging the cops
Cause we was looking for the crew spot
Rolling in a six-deuce
I'm a target cause Mexicans never
Had a gang truce hit the spot, and it's dark
My primo said, "Park!"
Then we bailed out a '62 Skylark
Yeah, this vato rolled up
"Where you from, holmes?"
I dropped my 40 but Blanco said, "Stop
Holmes" i took two steps back
I could tell he was packed
Plus the skinny motherfucker's on crack
I turned and dashed nine blocks
I heard nine shots
Now my primo's in a pine box
And if I go back and get him
I know, I can get him
Squeeze the trigger on the nine
I hit 'em and as I reminisce about my life
It's no wonder I still got my life
And I'm a take you back

"Take you back"
"Doo doo, doo, doo" And I'm a take you back
"Take you back"
"Doo doo, doo, doo" And I'm a take you back
"Take you back"

This shit is dedicated to all the homies
We done lost in the past go pass me that 40
I'm a crack this shit open
And just chill the old school shit
And to all you gangstas
ALT just took you back way back
Back into time
