Flashback - Gift Of Gab

As we proceed…

Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back

Welcome back to the days and the times of old

Welcome back to the classic stories that’s been told

Welcome back to diamond back whites painted chrome

Back when life was a way more simple zone

Welcome back to 501 and acid wash jeans

If you had tough skins you didn’t want to be seen

Welcome back to cap session 'til the sun went down

Slap box your way before you ever left the town

Welcome back to one on one fight with no grounds

Being fired fat boy signing session in tower

Run DMC, Houdini, my first rap albums

Krush Groove, back when Run asked the crowd who’s house

Breaking one, breakin two beats street, Wild Style

Jackson 5 Christmas playing on your radio dial

Reminiscing, drifting on a memory in this rap

Welcome back, welcome back

Welcome back to the crush on a girl next door

Fifth period in homeroom passing back notes

Welcome back to family barbecues every month

Sometimes there would be arguments but it was all love

Welcome back to coasters and karate shoes

The Great Space Coaster, no Gnews is good Gnews

Way before you ever had a sip of your first booze

Drunk off life the simple things kept you amused

Welcome back to box cuts and jags

Jheri curl activate a rock in the plastic bag with a hat on the top

When niggas started to sag and gang bang

Even if you didn’t you had to claim

Rocking corduroy hats with a crease on top

Stealing fake Gazelles out of the local thrift shop

Reminiscing, drifting on a memory in this rap

Welcome back, welcome back

We keep it moving y’all

We keep it moving y’all

We take it back y’all

We take it back y’all

Welcome back to summer time expos in the park

Beach cruisers padded with the black foam on the bars

Welcome Back, Kotter, Good Times, What’s Happening Now

Sanford and Son, The Cosby Show, That’s My Mama

Gucci sweat shirt light blue furry Kangols

The Fila Mickey Mouse shirt that said «yo baby yo»

Spuds MacKenzie, Pee Wee’s dance, doing the bud

RoboCop, the Cabbage Patch, fake ID in the club

African medallion school days do the right thing

I get raw still number one microphone fiend

Reminiscing, drifting on a memory in this rap

Welcome back, welcome back
