Back in the days Lyrics by Soulkast

Honoris causa

2011

[Intro]
This is a F.P., Frero Production
Hey yo
Fréro Prod, Soulkast, Talib
And I see my man Soulkast [?]
Hey yo, what up
Hey yo, Kweli, I got this track round, I want you to talk about
(c'est ça)
Like, where we started from
Faut qu'on leur explique
And where we check in it
Vas-y dis-leur Talib
[Couplet 1: Talib Kweli]
I'm like who, let me get the crack [?]
I rap [?] I attack [?]
Back in the days I used to backpack it
Never too optimistic or too pessimistic, he's a pragmatic
Speak on the track like [?] practice
Kweli the illest [?] and when we act it's in [?]
I live [?] like crack addicts
[?] asthmatics
Started out in thе Stu
Take my Timberland boots to the [?]
If wе stay with the flow, hopin' your homies [?] imaginary
[?] I'm gonna make [?] the ambassador
Culture [?] a book of life, another [?]
[?] spectacular [?] to head
Not a body [?] snake lie dead
[Refrain: Stefan Filey]
We didn't know which way to go
(we don't stop, no)
But we met you, hip-hop never stop
(we don't stop, no)
Now what he says, it's how we stay
What is this feeling that I'm feeling
(Soulkast, Talib, we don't stop)
[Couplet 2: Soulkast]
J'passe des nuits blanches à noircir des feuilles, c'est ma vie
Le pera, c'est grâce à lui qu'j'm'accroche à mort à la vie
Dans cet enfer qu'est la vie, c'est notre paradis
Injectée dans les veines, incurable est cette maladie
Le beat et le flow, le plaisir de gratter sa life
Imbibé de soul, le rap est la BO d'ma life
Dans les postes et les casques à fond du QB's Finest
Larges étaient nos baggy jeans, on vénérait Lord Finesse
New-York en est la base, la terre promise
C'était l'électrochoc, on a tous mis les doigts dans la prise
Rythmés par les BPM du Wu-Tang et du Boot Camp, bang
Y a trop d'vibe dans le boom-bap my man
J'ai trop d'amour pour cette putain d'zik
Qui fait renaître des classiques pour ces amnésiques
Deux coupables pour un délit
Soulkast et Talib Kweli
[Refrain: Stefan Filey]
We didn't know which way to go
(we don't stop, no)
But we met you, hip-hop never stop
(we don't stop, no)
Now what he says, it's how we stay
What is this feeling that I'm feeling
(we don't stop, no)
We didn't know (hip-hop)which way to go
(we don't stop, no)
But we met you (Soulkast), hip-hop never stop
(we don't stop, no)
Now what he says (Talib Kweli), it's how we stay
(Real soul music)
What is this feeling that I'm feeling
(we don't stop, no)
