New trends coming in, old niggas linking up To the top, where we coulda been when I think of us The past is the past, the future only God knows Ever since the Nas show, we been viral Chino X said “bring it back like cornrows” So I picked the phone up, called Mahtie up I was in the zone, pouring up like Lollicup Blunt in my hand, confronting him with a plan Like “all we need to do is get Prhyme in the booth Call the troops, guaranteed Miguel’ll fall in the loop” But wait It’s kinda hard to talk like this ‘Cause when the boat started to sink l abandoned the ship But fuck it ‘Cause even I learned to swim With some raw ass Hippies that showed me to win But wait Ain’t nothing like The A Them my niggas from the start, and I ain’t walking away This time I used to think we’d always be together, what a shame The days pass and time separated our names We waded through the rain together, back in the day You were like my fucking brothers, I’da never led astray But then that chapter closed before I ever read a page If we got it back tomorrow, it would never be the same And I don’t wanna face the change of another season Believing that everything ain’t happen for a reason We say we back, but niggas never knew we even left It’s a new generation of people, what you expect? I ain’t trippin’ off the past, cause I mean, I been workin’ Shit hasn’t been easy, but I ain’t saying I’m perfect Same contacts and goals, but y’all didn’t try The weak link that ended up having the most drive So here we are again, back in the lab, spittin’ Trying to give back our city what they’ve been missin’ Plus I’ve been ripping niggas, so the link is brawlik My hustle rubbed off, now we all some workaholics Got so many projects that I’m working on now And we long overdue for our album to come out I’m ready if you ready, got a solid game plan Clenching mics with my right, and write checks with the same hand Talks about the past, that’s a drinking conversation Now back to the music, ‘cause our people been waitin’ I used to think we’d always be together, what a shame The days pass and time separated our names We waded through the rain together, back in the day You were like my fucking brothers, I’da never led astray But then that chapter closed before I ever read a page If we got it back tomorrow, it would never be the same And I don’t wanna face the change of another season Believing that everything ain’t happen for a reason My memory’s impeccable, I can recall the day We all came up with such an illustrious name The A Was in the building, so appealing to the masses Gave barely legal chicks fully developed hot flashes Underground in a casket is where we buried the hatchet Had a couple clashes, but now we finally back Shit Fast-forward the time now Me and M.I. down In the studio, making music for that Grindhouse Time out Yo, I miss that Alumni sound Well, call up Bush and Kellyn, then Tell ‘em meet us at my house We can hatch a plan and get back in the lab right now I never stopped workin’ on verses I just didn’t write ‘em down The drive now is ridiculous Now we give a fuck Recording, mixing stuff, and working like there’s six of us The jig is up So give it up, or get your shit together Bitch, you get a month before we put the mixtape up I used to think we’d always be together, what a shame The days pass and time separated our names We waded through the rain together, back in the day You were like my fucking brothers, I’da never led astray But then that chapter closed before I ever read a page If we got it back tomorrow, it would never be the same And I don’t wanna face the change of another season Believing that everything ain’t happen for a reason --- For a Reason - Alumni
