Everybody Nose

[Intro: Nola Darling] I be catching flashbacks to time before we spoke in hashtags Sons and daughters of midnight marauders, sha-clack-clack Even back before we spoke like griots here Now everybody say, "I remember way back when" [Bridge: Sa-Ra & Nola Darling] Soupa Deville '78 Sun up in the sky when the clouds was grey There we exchanged those ropes for chains Some things will never be the same [Verse 1: Blu] Ayo, look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane Y'all niggas know the name, and ain't a damn thing changed But I'm saying, the game needs to get a make-o' Everything they play is just that same ol', same ol' Smoking on that Jane, yo, riding in that Range, yo These niggas still doing songs 'bout slanging cane bro? That shit is way old, still getting paid though Fuck you think we came for? To be on The Today Show? Y'all need to slide a few more O's up on that payroll Matter-fact, bring the money bags off a crane, yo Tiger Style, like I bring that Wu-Tang flow Used to bust to bust, now they do it for the fame, yo I heard that Jay still getting '88 dough, I'm sayin' [Hook: Sa-Ra] Some things will never be the same As they came Peopled change And everybody knows Some things will never be the same As they came It's a shame [Verse 2: Blu] Ayo, the radio, the TV, yo, and even the press It was the reason for the stress that they pile on your chest But I said, "Fuck that!" Make sure the system in my truck stacked I'm sick of cruising 'round the town off this bus pass I used to bust back when y'all was watching Rugrats Five-ten pimp, growing out that little mustache Watching sluts pass, wishing I could touch that Pose on the scope on that all-black Chuck hat They brought the Chucks back, but who the G's above that? Had them all-whites like, "I dare somebody scuff that" They know the drama, but it ain't no need to tuck that Feel bad 'cause I never brought my papa's gun back Run niggas when I never used to run track Shit, I used to get some young snatch off of one rap I was a Slick Rick since I was a young cat, yup! When I got that BDP poster, I hung that up! Can't believe my teacher put me in a dunce hat once (Say what?) [Hook: Sa-Ra] Some things will never be the same As they came People change And everybody knows Some things will never be the same As they came It's a shame [Verse 3: Blu] Ayo, the Kangols, the jumpsuits, the fat gold chains The three stripes, the Cortez, stacking old tapes The boombox, the flat-top, the lines, and the fade The beepers, the speakers, the four-finger rings Rakims, G-Raps, the Big Daddy Kanes The Biz, the Real Roxanne, Dana Dane LL, The Fat Boys, Ice Cube, and Dre Ice T, Just-Ice, D Nice, and Flav The Beastie Boys, yup, and even 3rd Bass [Hook: Sa-Ra] Some things will never be the same As they came Peopled change And everybody knows Some things will never be the same As they came It's a shame [Outro: Blu] Ugh (Never) yes, yes And through the eyes of the wise, we will never see demise Hip-hop is an art we will never compromise We will never (Never, never, never) Never (Never, never, never) Never (Never, never, never) Never (Never, never, never)
