Going way back to the old school
Going way back to the old school
Going way back to the old school

Yo I'm a take you back in time
Then we skipped classes to bust our rhymes
Respect was earned it wasn't handed out
You knew who was who they was standing out
Walkman in hand playing tapes on the train
Graffiti on the wall with an alias name
Boom box bragging breakdancing
Captivating those people glancing

Memories remain even though things change
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Remember all the places faces and names
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized

I'm a take back to the past
When 500 dollars was a whole lotta cash
Used to ride our bikes every day to school
Used to moonwalk cuz we thought it was cool
Having fun with the sidewalk chalk
Girls skipping rope while the tuff guys fought
Going to the store to buy vinyl records
Scratching em all up trying to be the freshest

Memories remain even though things change
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Remember all the places faces and names
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized

Going back to the disco
Going back to the afro
Going back to the tie dye
So hard to say bye bye
Going ack to the roller rink
Going back to the first drink
Going back to the old school
We thought we was so cool

Memories remain even though things change
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Remember all the places faces and names
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
Old school keep me mesmerized
