[00:06.17]My college days had a lot of rage on the page
[00:08.67]Anxiety was commonplace, nervous just to rock a stage
[00:11.24]Couldn't even concentrate, wasn't making honor grades
[00:13.87]Bit off more than chewable and put another on my plate
[00:16.47]Life full in front of me, but stop and wait, contemplate
[00:19.18]Neither felt like options for the way that I would operate
[00:21.63]A tireless pursuit 'cause I want a place among the greats
[00:24.23]Started rocking parties giving all it takes I'm on the way
[00:26.88]Living room fists pumping, hits bumping out the system
[00:29.46]Record spinning, DJ cutting mixing, feel the rhythm
[00:32.02]Inspired finding freedom, need delivered from this prison
[00:34.67]The vibe was so alive definition of us living
[00:37.02]Cook a verse, put in work, with a preface to my ethic
[00:39.86]I'm only giving substance you can find in every message
[00:42.40]Tireless in effort spitting cadence 'til I'm breathless
[00:45.17]Every moment precious, check it, energy infectious
[00:47.93]We take it back, we take it back
[00:50.56]We take it back to the good old days
[00:53.16]We take it back, we take it back
[00:55.81]We take it back to the good old days
[00:58.39]We bring it back, we bring it back
[01:00.93]We bring it back like the good old days
[01:03.52]We bring it back, we bring it back
[01:06.17]We bring it back like the good old days
[01:08.52]You ever had the feeling you won't make it up the mountain?
[01:11.13]Watching stress pile up continuous compounding
[01:13.84]Rat racing, back breaking, life is such a killer
[01:16.44]Underpaid and overworked, the story so familiar
[01:19.09]Forty hour student plus this call center overtime
[01:21.69]Had to toe the line, but my growing strides were stepping up to coincide
[01:24.89]Open wide, stretching whole divides
[01:26.66]For the moment when the flow aligns, roll the dice, I know it's time
[01:29.56]Debt possessor pressing just to meet a monthly quota
[01:32.13]Hit the books for credit, steady seeking this diploma
[01:34.74]Barely rolling day to day while idling my motor
[01:37.04]Inching closer to the precipice without it going over
[01:40.02]Journalling my consequence, all indents are common sense
[01:42.67]Letters to the editor, I'm saving all the documents
[01:45.18]Easing up the burden, current burning through the conduit
[01:47.70]Music making balance paying homage to the monument
[01:50.54]We take it back, we take it back
[01:53.10]We take it back to the good old days
[01:55.77]We take it back, we take it back
[01:58.36]We take it back to the good old days
[02:00.97]We bring it back, we bring it back
[02:03.57]We bring it back like the good old days
[02:06.13]We bring it back, we bring it back
[02:08.70]We bring it back like the good old days
[02:16.73]Still enrolled so my syllables are higher learning
[02:19.00]Fire burning, pushing got me writing in a fury
[02:21.62]Bracing feeling tighter every time the wire turning
[02:24.14]Eternally discerning destination or the journey
[02:26.84]Treadmill extended had me disobeying loiter signs
[02:29.54]Dreams pacing out the clock, pray there's no destroying mine
[02:32.11]Toiled 'til it's endless so my seeds had probably soiled fine
[02:34.67]Expected just to walk off stage to unemployment lines
[02:37.38]Feels like it was yesterday, such a clairvoyant time
[02:39.97]Annoying and avoiding the entitlement of royal minds
[02:42.59]Blood raising to a boil nearly went and spoiled mine
[02:45.17]Shooting to the top like these Tesla coil climbs
[02:47.45]Bigger stage, still I'm in a rage, ain't no way to heal it
[02:50.28]Emotions are conveyed so now everybody feel it
[02:52.94]Finally prevailed after years of fighting strong
[02:55.62]Worried I'd forget, so I had to write this song
[03:19.22]We take it back, we take it back
[03:21.88]We take it back to the good old days
[03:24.47]We take it back, we take it back
[03:27.04]We take it back to the good old days
[03:29.66]We bring it back, we bring it back
[03:32.25]We bring it back like the good old days
[03:34.84]We bring it back, we bring it back
[03:37.40]We bring it back like the good old days
