[Verse 1] Take me back, take me back I didn’t know how good I had it When the music hit hard And the love was automatic Take me back, take me back To the days we’d all show up Not just tapping on a screen But really pulling up  Fresh fade, fresh braids, stepping out clean Karl Kani, Fubu, you know what I mean Pager on my hip, you knew the routine Put 411 in, you knew what it mean No name, no message, just numbers on the screen Cassette in the deck, elbows out the window With that gangster lean [Chorus] Take me back, take me back I didn’t know how good I had it When the music hit hard And the love was automatic Take me back, take me back To the days we’d all show up Not just tapping on a screen But really pulling up  [Verse 2] B.E.T. wasn’t just a channel It was culture in a room Video Soul, Rap City In living color had laughter in the room and Martin Making Black culture, boom Now everybody’s connected But are we really connecting? Got thousands of followers But who’s really checking? [Chorus] Take me back, take me back I didn’t know how good I had it When the music hit hard And the love was automatic Take me back, take me back To the days we’d all show up Not just tapping on a screen But really pulling up [Verse 3] We didnt have everything but we had time, We didnt have the world but the world felt like mine. We had to memorize numbers, had to read a map, Had to find someone’s house with no help from an app. But shout out to Dr. West, black woman with the math, Helped lay the groundwork so we could find our path. I was coming of age when the culture ran deep, Young and fly making memories we keep. [Bridge] Take me back take me back take me back. I don’t know how good I had it. Take me back when the music hit hard and the love was automatic. Take me back. Take me back to the days we met at the park street lights came on you had to be home before dark Take me back Take me back. Take me back. [Chorus] Take me back, take me back I didn’t know how good I had it When the music hit hard And the love was automatic Take me back, take me back To the days we’d all show up Not just tapping on a screen But really pulling up  [Outro] Take me back to the 90s
