[Scoe, Kobe, Kendrick Lamar - Back In The Day lyrics]
Sippin' on gin and juice
Back in 2001, I was smoking on the chronic
Too now I need a Detox, yeah, yeah, yeah
We can't do the same things that we used to
Nah, nah, oh nah
I remember growin' up, lil' Dogg Pound pup
Bumpin' "G Thang"
Mixin' gin and juice in my cup
And all I knew was NWA
Eazy, Yella and Ren, Ice Cube and Dre
Big Snoop, Warren G, Nate Dogg and Rage
Kurupt and Daz, RBX, the original gang
Tray Deee, DOC, I can go on for days
DPGC, this the way I was raised, ayy
When mothafuckin' 2Pac was the shit
Specially when he was rockin'
On the Doc's shit
Killa Cali where it all started
A legacy, me
I'm just happy to be a part of it
This West shit is history in the makin'
This here is the next step
California's best kept
Scoe the mac, I'm a YA gangsta rider
I remember South Central LA, we wanna
Bumpin' NWA, smokin' chronic
Sippin' on gin and juice
Back in 2001, I was smoking on the chronic
Too now I need a Detox, yeah, yeah, yeah
We can't do the same things that we used to
Nah, nah, oh nah
I remember when it all started
On Alondra, in that small apartment
Burgundy carpet and SEGA cartridges
Poppa flickin' blunt ashes all
On his garments momma off a wine cooler
Magic Johnson played Jordan
I was only four but it's
Like I heard it before
House party crackin' off of
The music Doctor record
And according to my awareness I
Was more than coherent a cold listener
Mockin' that shit like a parrot
My cousins kickin' up dust
Crippin', their flag, wear it
'Round their hand like a mitten
Aim and use it for leverage
Shittin' on Compton sheriffs like
"Fuck the Police" woofers and gold Rollies
Every swap meet should know me
Cause I copped every record that dropped
Dropped a dub just to hear Doc drop a jewel
For the sake of hip-hop
Whoever thought the moment I seen you
On bullets for "Cali Love"
15 years later you'd be savin' my life, what?
Bumpin' NWA, smokin' chronic
Sippin' on gin and juice
Back in 2001, I was smoking on the chronic
Too now I need a Detox, yeah, yeah, yeah
We can't do the same things that we used to
Nah, nah, oh nah
