DaJohn - Way Back When Lyrics

I remember back when, yeah
I remember back when
I remember back

I remember back when them rappers used to make them bars hit
Now they say they're hit makers but they miss the target
Remember back when, yeah
I remember back when, yeah yeah
I remember back when the barbershop was the spot
When I had the bald fade, before I started growing locks
When I walked through the door, I would always get stopped
Then the OG hit me like, "I know you heard the beat drop, off top" like
Aw mane
You can hear how loud we smelling from the hallway,
I remember we were flashing pics on Broadway
Known a few ain't 'fraid to flash them sticks in broad day
All I say, send them prayers to Yahweh
Can't tolerate no fake, or if you tryna talk shade
I heard them rumors they be spreading but it's all claims
Envy dripping off my Fendi and my Balmain
They just jealous of our relish, cuz we all paid
We don't take no off days
Think we better part ways
I ain't pulling up for less than 3 stacks like I'm Andre
Heard you doing big things, oh that's what they all say
I'm inhaling smoke until I choke, f*ck what the law say
Surprise all in their eyes, when I pull up, I make them jaws hang
Only money talk, don't understand me like I talk slang
And my future bright no looking back on all my dark ways
My dark days with dark shades

I've spit a hundred thousand verses, got a million to go
No nine to five can make me feel this shit I feel in my soul
Just like it's FIFA how I'm kicking shit and reaching my goals
They get to shooting like a movie, now I'm facing foes
What's the purpose of working, if it ain't obtaining the dough
We changed the wave so many times so now we changing the flow
Changing is an understatement, rearranging the code
I keep you rappers in line like I'm arranging the notes
Y'all couldn't sound more like me if you had a page from my notes
You don't know you're more replaceable than the ring in my nose
You really the one serving all the champagne for my toast
Get your bars up, until then that's just the way that it goes aw yeah
Aw yeah
I remember back when yeah
Back when yeah
Do you remember back when yeah
I remember back when yeah
