Pac Div - Take Me Back lyrics
[Pac Div - Take Me Back lyrics]
Looking back in time like it was yesterday
My uncle Travis was killed
They took his breath away
My grandmother so strong
They took her best away
To all my fallen soldiers
You in a better place
I'm 'bout to roll one up
And let the record play
We all like Pac, hoping for better days
The love for my family never fades
No matter how far gone, we never stray
Keep you head up high my nigga let's get paid
Music with pain, that's how the best get made
I know how it feels to live in Section 8
Praying to God that I can catch a break
Bubba kush seem to help this depressing state
These politicians all jokes
This recession ain't
I wanna fly up high and leave this mess away
But right now, i'm here to leave you
With this message saying
Take me back in time when I
Fell in love with you
I will never forget how it
Felt when it all began
So just take me back in time
When I was young again
There was no drama, no stress, no pain
Just me and my friends take me back
Yo I remember stuffing paper in
The top of cassettes
To record them and then see who
Could rock it the best
Turn the mic up loud to get my mamma upset
Then get mad when she took it
'cause I bothered her rest
Whether Onyx or Quest
Well endowed as a hip hop child
Where the fuck you think I get my style
Still remember how I used to ball
At the park and rec
Jump shot, hit my arc, it's net
Had the, Pat Ewings, suede, black blue and
Prime Time Deions with the straps to 'em
Where act cool and
Saw my brother's strap moving
Under the seat of his Cutlass Supreme
My other brother was mean
He was rushing emcees
Around the same time Wu Tang
Was coming with "CREAM"
It was inspiration to discover my dream
How it feel to have pretty
Girls loving the team
Dilla's up in heaven smiling
Pac is next to him wylin'
God forbid when my time ends
I'll find a spot right on
Martin and Coretta's island
No propaganda, no paparazzi
Not worried 'bout fame, God got me
Still hold the same values my pops taught me
And kept the same attitude my moms taught me
Let's take it back to adolescence
When lyrics freed minds
When rap had a message
See in these times we need leaders
And more dreamers
No hate, less police, and more teachers
Less violence, more peace in more regions
More thoughts from great minds
For more thinkers just a tiny bit of love
Gets rid of the demons
I say a prayer for the future
The world needs it
My uncle Travis was killed
They took his breath away
My grandmother so strong
They took her best away
To all my fallen soldiers
You in a better place
I'm 'bout to roll one up
And let the record play
We all like Pac, hoping for better days
The love for my family never fades
No matter how far gone, we never stray
Keep you head up high my nigga let's get paid
Music with pain, that's how the best get made
I know how it feels to live in Section 8
Praying to God that I can catch a break

But right now, i'm here to leave you
