Lyrics
Now well they say the music you loved when you started gettin' laid Will be the music you love till your casket's in the grave And the first time I ever got a girl in the sheets She let Beastie Boys' Paul's Boutique play on repeat ("Hey Ladies") Was the theme song of my teens And though heavy into metal, for beats I was a fiend And for me the utter peak was circa '94 'Cause just like Dirt McGirt, (Ooh, baby, I like it raw) And the '90s were so that that those cats Made me start writin' my own raps And grindin' my bozack up there on the stage Screamin' at motherf**kers like Zack when frontin' Rage (Woah!) But nowadays due to such a metamorphosis It seems hip hop sucks a dead horse's d**k 'Cause most tracks comin' through are so wack That all I wanna do is go back 'Cause I'm an old motherf**ker set in my ways And now that everything's changed I'm lamentin' the days Of hip hop culture when it entered a phase called (The golden age) Before Biggie and Pac and Jam Master Jay All got themselves shot and all passed away Rap ruled and new school ain't surpassed the days of (The golden age) So freestyle in my face, motherf**ker I'ma slap you These days every man and his dog's a f**kin' rapper (*Dog bark*) And that's the reason why the standard in rap's dropped 'Cause all you really need to make a track is a laptop So people release sh*t who can't even make beats yet They rap to what sounds like a Reason 3 preset And though I've found the sh*t to sound a bit counterfeit And the beat's had the funk sucked out of it, c**ts are proud of it Because the crowd'll pick style over substance You can kill 'em all with syllables without makin' much sense Your point could be flawed or lackin' in heart Yet the label ensures that you're smashin' the charts apart And that's the curse of commercialisation So f**k every j*rk who ever worked at a station Givin' radio play to the labels who pay For makin' hip hop a blatant cliché 'Cause I'm an old motherf**ker set in my ways And now that everything's changed I'm lamentin' the days Of hip hop culture when it entered a phase called (The golden age) Before Biggie and Pac and Jam Master Jay All got themselves shot and all passed away Rap ruled and new school ain't surpassed the days of (The golden age) And so they're sayin' now that hip hop's dead and that the golden age is over And if it ain't dead, it's definitely in a coma It's kinda like a joke, it's so morbid and sick And it's sorta got me thinkin' that I oughta just quit But sh*t, I wanna see the scene back in its prime So I'ma raise the dead like Frankenstein While I'm reanimating older boom bap flows And breathin' life into the golden age 2.0 Takin' over the scene to change the flow of the cream Slappin' hipster hoppers out of stovepipe jeans With flows and rhyme schemes to show why I'm deemed Bona fide king of these open mic fiends So it's all good to be commercial and pop But don't be sellin' your soul and think you're earnin' your props, you're not You think your posse rips sermons when you rock? Well let me tell you, all you're doin' is j*rkin' each other off 'Cause I'm an old motherf**ker, veteran stage And I'll be steady gettin' better with age till I'm dead in the grave And givin' life to these old veneers into my (Golden years) And even after ninety when I'm old and weird Growin' little beards from my moles and ears I'm gonna do it how I done it for my whole career into my (Golden years) 'Cause I'm an old motherf**ker set in my ways And now that everything's changed I'm lamentin' the days Of hip hop culture when it entered a phase called (The golden age) Before Biggie and Pac and Jam Master Jay All got themselves shot and all passed away Rap ruled and new school ain't surpassed the days of (The golden age) [Instrumental Outro]
