lirik lagu used to sound like, now – ivan ice & emay
[chorus]
it used to sound like
it used to sound like
now it sounds like
but now it sounds like
it used to sound like
it used to sound like
now it sounds like
but now it sounds like
[verse 1]
i remember back in the days
dj’s spinning and they scratch and amaze
freestyle teams in the street, they protect turf
no schemes in the beef, just a wet verse
grand flash and the furious five
wack crews to a minimum
dope is provoking them
and the hip-hop hope is the opium
top pinnacle, rocking spots pivotal
to the advancement, the movement
of a b-boy spinning on his cap to the music
send thrills through a windmill
ice sheets through a tight beat
hot coals on a bomb flow
bomb flows to a lost soul
now found in a poncho
now warm from the storm of the world of the hostile
where the mc’s plugged with the crowd like a console
gaming. but not games when
the cypher sparks, the mc’s playpen
hip-hop is a jewel, not a fake gem
the birth of a voice on which the pain swept
[chorus]
it used to sound like
it used to sound like
now it sounds like
but now it sounds like
it used to sound like
it used to sound like
now it sounds like
but now it sounds like
[verse 2]
so where we at now?
30 plus years
where we at now?
let the blood smear
it’s all about the money, get that cheese
pockets fat, not flat, make them envy
the new school’s trynna take over
all tired of the thugs and guns, give it a make-over
so now we have a new wave of glam rappers
bright shirts and tight pants, they mad at us
but the new never listen to the veterans
the new wanna progress and be better than
but the fat gold chains from the 80’s
is tied to our ankles, dangling, flailing
so should we learn to cut them off?
or maybe run with it through the tall gr-ss helping us evolve
to solve, the re-occurring issues
keep our heads high, instead of down in the tissue
taller than shaq standing on the eiffel tip
hip-hop is a jewel, not another brick
[chorus]
it used to sound like
it used to sound like
now it sounds like
but now it sounds like
it used to sound like
it used to sound like
now it sounds like
but now it sounds like
now it sounds like
