[Chris Miller - Verse 1] They want that old school rap back and cats want it ASAP so I'mma flip it on niggas, the track be the gym mat Iβm at a high demand for rap fans I'm Outstanding like the Gap Band, check soundscans, More money than ever so ain't no margin for error and I've been eatinβ on MCβs since Tougher Than Leather and my peoples got my back, like Africans with Mandela. So you better put them glocks down like you were Heather βcause I get high like Dominique smokinβ the chronic leaf and I'm in and out the future like Quantum Leap Come follow me. I flow off old school beats just like Mahogany I'm so β90s with the gold chain and rockinβ wallabees I still gangsta boogie Kool G Rap my ass off get stomped out for pressinβ that fast forward Sucka MCs ainβt ready for fastball βcause my style intense like you takinβ that crash courseΒ

[Verse 2] I stayed criminal minded BDP first album, that was β87.I was up in project housinβ D.O.C. came with No One Could Do It Better. Then that Paid In Full album had a nigga wantinβ chedda. I freestyle in project hallways all day. Then Sir-Mix-A-Lot had that Posse On Broadway Flow like the incredible letter man. Red said, whateva, man. Big drove the caravan in Maryland. I was a student of the game when I learned from Kane before Meth I was bringinβ the pain like Memphis Bleek, I was cominβ of age I wanted to be Cool J when he walked on stage. He was King Hercules. He walked like a panther. Sun Rise In The East that Jeru Tha Damaja I reminisce like Pete Rock and CL peace to Melle Mel. Shante the illest femaleΒ

[Verse 3] Whatchu know βbout Milk and Giz? And ain't nobody rock a party like Biz I want to dance like The Kangol Kid Scoob and Scrap Lover, Trouble T-Roy, even DJ Kool Herc even invented the b-boy. Take a look around like Master Ace, Public Enemy got me hype when they said they wanted βBASS!β Flavor Flav was the first hype man, I love British Knights, but really I was a Fila fan. Just somethinβ you wanna hear like Gang Starr and Premier with that flava in your ear. That Craig Mack thatβs real Love MC Ren, but when Lyte dropped Paper Thin, cats like Drake wouldn'ta made it back then we had Prince Paul, Large Professor, big Daddy-O can't forget Kurtis Blow them word and real rap shows Parrish and Erick Sermon, Heavy D from Mount Vernon Joeski Love he even did the Pee-Wee HermanΒ
