Think Back Lyrics by Canibus

Musiquarium, Vol. 1 (Mixtape)

2013

[Intro: Flawless the MC]
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back

[Verse 1: Canibus]
I reminisce, I reminisce, like C.L. and Pete Rock
When we never had to work for what we got
When we used to street-box, not release shots
But we still ran on the block when we seen cops
Constantly reminded a time when played in the water sprayed from the fire hydrant
Back when life's colours were bright and so vibrant
And every day was like a shining light wherever I went
When there was no grown-up problems and issues
When it was all basketball and tennis shoes
Not showing up to class with no excuse
Doing whatever kids do just to skip school
CDs of the memories owned by your man
Not ????
So hold on to whatever dream's shown
'Fore you wake up and everything's gone
Now let's think back...

[Chorus: Flawless the MC]
(1993)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back
('94, 1992)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back
(2000, '98)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back
('91, 1995)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back

[Verse 2: Canibus]
Y'all remember way back in the days
When hip-hop was 'bout talent, not the crap that they play
On the radio now, first half that they sing
Is straight auto-tuned out like Zab in L.A
What the hell happened to originality?
And there's a lot of rappers need to study on what real MCing is
?
And my advice to ? is
The reason is it could get tedious even for geniuses. (Yup)
They say it takes hard work and dedication
Maybe a little blind faith and meditation
Don't forget the culture and where it came from
Read up on your history, get you education
'Cause hip-hop starts in the heart
And is only set apat by the smarts in your art
So don't focus on the marks on the chart
But to to be a spark in the dark
And just think back...

[Chorus: Flawless the MC]
(1979)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back
('88, 1986)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back
('05, 2001)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back
(1982, 1980)
Let's take a sec to think back, think back, think back
