Tion Wayne Back Then (feat. Santan Dave)
Intro (Tion Wayne)
Back then, Back then, Back then Back then Back then
(T Wayne from the 9)
Yo, yo, yo, yo
Verse 1 (Tion Wayne)
Feds know me, then don't need no pc
If you know me then you know the g in me
If you know then you know how I get down
I'm a north side boss but I get around
No talking, I was a go-getter
Cos you can't talk racks if there's no cheddar
Had my nike bomber jacket for the cold weather
And no-one stunts around me could've known better
I've been through the highs and the lows
Got everything I grind for on my own
Counting up p's in my zone
Those days I didn't have p's for a phone
I swear down I couldn't pay the cab man
Madman
Swear I jack man and I tax man
So I pray to god i ain't seeing jail
Cos in the beef I get messy like Lionel (come on)
Pre-chorus (Tion Wayne)
I really didn't know back then
Didn't have no hoes or no clothes back then
Young boys but we had to move like men
Now i'm up now [?] throwback then
Back then, back then, back then
I wasn't no-one now i'm certi
Au revoir broke days, arrivederci
I ain't tryna be road when i'm 30
Chorus (Tion Wayne)
I really didn't know back then
Didn't have no hoes or no clothes back then
Young boys but we had to move like men
Now i'm up now [?] throwback then
Back then, back then, back then
I really didn't, I really didn't know back then
Now i'm up now [?] throwback
Now i'm up now [?] throwback [?] throwback
Now i'm up now
I really didn't, I really didn't, I really didn't know back then
Verse 2 (Dave)
I saw my circle going opposite ways
We're old friends with new news but we got nothing to say
Its like i'm so obsessed with music I got lost in my ways
I feel my conversation drifting man i'm Colin McRae
My best songs they can't speak the words I want them to say
They set me up with girls that never wanted to stay
I'm looking straight through her motives man she wanted to trade, cos me I wanted her body and she just wanted my name
In fact she wanted my status I mean she wanted my stripes
I'm a [?] man they wanted my life
I swear this pressure is a measure of your power and mine
When everyone relies on you to make it happen at [?]
And your just tryna bring your click in tryna pattern it right
And your motive isn't clicking and your meeting times are clipping, and your stressing cos you're never sleeping happy at night
You're staring deep into the darkness with your dad in your mind
I put this pressure on my back they think i'm arrogant I
Hold it down for every single f..cking man on my side
And man are talking like i'm taking this chit and chattering light
Until we buck up in the flesh and then you know the f..cking rest
Chorus (Tion Wayne)
I really didn't know back then
Didn't have no hoes or no clothes back then
Young boys but we had to move like men
Now i'm up now [?] throwback then
Back then, back then, back then
I really didn't, I really didn't know back then
Now i'm up now [?] throwback
Now i'm up now [?] throwback
[?] throwback, now i'm up now
