Flashback (Remix) Lyrics by Abstract

Under Lights and Microscopes

2012

[Pre-Chorus]
See the past through a flashback
Back to the days when I didn't have rap
But nowadays, bitch, I'm all about that
Back to the days when they didn't call me Abstract
No dreams, just shit to do
Just a kid hopin' that his skies were blue
Wish I could live in a flashback
But I'm on a mission now, so I'm 'bout that

[Chorus]
Take me back to when time didn't matter
Back when them rungs weren't attached to the ladder
Back when there were no dreams to be shattered
Just take me back, oh, just take me back

[Verse]
Before anybody knew my name
Before a broken heart changed up my fuckin' name
Before I got addicted to this crazy lane
Before I found out I would never be the same
Back before I had my own lane
Back before I had to fight pain
Yeah, I know that I could use change
But these fans countin' on me, so I maintain
What I did from the start, gave my whole damn heart to this goddamn art
Gave me a fresh start when it all fell apart
Gave me light in the dark, so I finished what I start
Ain't puttin' me in park till we drivin' off the charts
'Cause I'm goin' all in, got a good hand of cards
And everything I wanted is now becoming ours
Middle finger to the ones who said I wouldn't go far

[Chorus]
Take me back to when time didn't matter
Back when them rungs weren't attached to the ladder
Back when there were no dreams to be shattered
Just take me back, oh, just take me back

[Pre-Chorus]
See the past through a flashback
Back to the days when I didn't have rap
But nowadays, bitch, I'm all about that
Back to the days when they didn't call me Abstract
No dreams, just shit to do
Just a kid hopin' that his skies were blue
Wish I could live in a flashback
But I'm on a mission now, so I'm 'bout that

[Chorus]
Take me back to when time didn't matter
Back when them rungs weren't attached to the ladder
Back when there were no dreams to be shattered
Just take me back, oh, just take me back
