Old School Lyrics by Vadell Gabriel

Old School

2014

[Verse 1]
One for the treble, two for the bass
I think it's about time I set the record straight
It's really not the fact I hate modern rap
But it simply just don't appeal to me like that
I can't explain why, but the old school got that vibe
That makes me nod my head, and spit out these rhymes
It relaxes my soul, lets my instincts flow
Throwing lyrical fireballs like Super Mario
Yeah, I'm called corny and goody two-shoes
Cause I don't smoke, act crude, or drink booze
Don't talk about hoes, getting money or killing
Cause frankly, it's not the life I'm living
Student by day, Rapper at night
Mild-mannered, shy, and very polite
Sitting down playing Super Mario Bros. 2
That's my life, living Old School
[Hook]
One for the treble, two for the bass
The old school is ready to rock the place
From the Golden Age to the modern times
So let me bust out some old school rhymes
[Verse 2]
Naw, I don't wear kangols or a high-top fade
Adidas jumpsuits, or big gold chains
I do own a few Nintendos...
I used to have a Dreamcast, but that bit the dust though
But I'm not dissing the new school, there's a lot I love
But the Old School wins, when push comes to shove
I love the New Jack sound, I'm it's biggest fan
When that groove comes on, it makes me wanna jam
Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis
TurboGrafx-16, and Arcade Cabinets
Retro games all day, I like to play
Sonic the Hedgehog and Pac-man, hey
Galaga, Rally-X, and Dig-Dug
Tekken and Street Fighter get nuttin but love
Some call me a hipster, even a fool
But hey, that's my life, living Old School
[Hook x2]
[Verse 3]
Riley, Jam, Lewis, Quik, Dilla
Premier, LA, yo these guys are killer
A streetwise sound, but with a soulful groove
Or a mix of rap, rhythm and blues
The jazzy sounds of a Tribe werequest
Or a Clan that ain't nuttin' to mess with
That's just a sampling of the Old School I like
The masters at work, doing it right
Don't get me wrong, we got some dope guys out too
Drake, Lupe, Kendrick, just to name a few
I dig their music, they got it on point
But it's the old school that gets me high like a joint
Like what you want, I'm not gonna force you
To conform to my personal point of view
But I had to go and set the record straight for you
Cause I'm far from corny, I'm just living Old School
[Hook till fade]
