XV - 80's Baby lyrics
[XV - 80's Baby lyrics]
Alright, you know
Nowadays everybody be talking about
Being an 80s baby
But nobody really understands what an
80s baby is you know, what it
Represents what we were born into you see
I feel like I
Represent the 80s without wearing the
Big dookie rope gold chains
You know? I'ma show y'all how take y'all
Back with me if y'all don't mind
Look 80's baby
Millennium teen yo MTV Raps on the TV screen
My nigga Kareem was like Radio Raheem
Blast his boom box on Do The Right Thing
Logos in our hair, I had the swoosh from Nike
Had a crush on Salt-N-Pepa, I was only like 3
Couldn't afford a Gameboy
My momma got me Linx
And I played Space Invaders till
The screen went green grew up on Arlene
My crew was called the Aces
We had the sickest cycles and
We killed rivals and racists
I had a hoop so we balled all night
I couldn't shoot
I had a shot like Bill Cartwright
But that wasn't important
Had a box of jersey's and everybody fight
Over who gets to be Jordan
Had a crush on Chili after CrazySexyCool
And that Red Light Special had
Me digging on you, yeah
80's baby millennium teen
Chicago Bulls was everybody's favorite team
Getting a Super Nintendo was a
Thing in your dreams
I was the first one on the block with it
Felt like a king ha, fitting right?
Momma had trouble with bills, but you 12
You don't know what living's like
Living life? I was fine trying to chill
In an open field filled with
Grass with a kite
Trying to catch lightening bugs in the night
Argue with your best friend and
It ends in a fight
The next day, everything's alright
They knocking at your door saying
"Wanna ride bikes?" haha
Damn I miss them times
And I miss them rhymes
It all changed though in '99
You know we all grew up
Nowadays everybody be talking about
Being an 80s baby
But nobody really understands what an
80s baby is you know, what it
Represents what we were born into you see
I feel like I
Represent the 80s without wearing the
Big dookie rope gold chains
You know? I'ma show y'all how take y'all
Back with me if y'all don't mind
Look 80's baby
