Flashback Lyrics by Foreign Beggars

2 2 Karma

2018

[Intro]
Let's begin now
Ready?
Foreign beggars
What we're gonna do right here is go back

[Chorus]
I was just a young buck, growing up quick
Catch a flashback, we were living that shit
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
I was just a young buck, growing up quick
Catch a flashback, we were living that shit
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
(Dipping and diving)

[Verse 1]
I grew up on a council plot
Ain't have a lot, but my jam was kotch
Me and my older bro, cuz, madre, and my pops
We had to dial a box, watch the Top of the Pops
These polaroid flicks of your boy will make you double clock
A troubled flop, the old folk, they used to fuss a lot
The more time I felt, the belt or the knuckle drop
Papa was a old school head, he had a temper on him
Grandma told 'em go call feds, she went December on him
Nineteen eighty-five, that was the big freeze
Ice skating on road at minus six degrees
Frozen to my toe in the snow, on my way to gospel
Oprah, I was hoping to go, felt like a blizzard, G
Grinning as the springtime peaks, she brought the summer back
Running home hoping to catch the end of Thundercats
My cuzzy, he done his grit in the streets
I seen him push a fresh banger every night of the week, that shit was peak

[Chorus]
I was just a young buck, growing up quick
Catch a flashback, we were living that shit
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
I was just a young buck, growing up quick
Catch a flashback, we were living that shit
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
(Dipping and diving)

[Verse 2]
Used to rock a black bandana banging Testament Sepultura
Napalm Death cassette tearing the school up
Gon' face death, suffocation, or biohazard
Pantera, new Nirvana, I was alive in ninety-nine
[?] and a CD that wasn't parking shots
Twenty kids up in the gym, drinking that concord
Murder Was The Case tape playing up in the U-Haul
Hiding off the street from police, hitting them Newport
Road dropped the saw night four, that was that graffitism
[?] with MTN, call me for smashing Britain (Bigger)
BDS ATG fuel or kilo
[?] bust case [?]
Classics on my feet, hard stepping to [?]
[?] the [?] swerve [?]
Ice cool [?] (It's [?])
Big up [?], Skibba, Shabba [?] and Funsta

[Chorus]
I was just a young buck, growing up quick
Catch a flashback, we were living that shit
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
I was just a young buck, growing up quick
Catch a flashback, we were living that shit
(Dipping and diving, fucking and skiving)
(Dipping and diving)

[Outro]
Yes, yes
Oh my gosh
