[Intro: Devina & (Wody)
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
(La ho girl Devina, Wody, Big Tone, to the days of old)
Can you take it back? Can you take it back?
Can you take it back? Take me, take me back
Let's take it back to the scratch
Looking at the Antioch Bridge, the smoke stacks
That other breeze in the winter can freeze
But in the summer was a blessing for those with no AC
Late night we hot potato
Boys is where the downtown Antioch, your things are
West front, West 11, West 4th
When the crews hit party, we come out in force
Strapped up of course
Prepared to kill, it was our last resort
We all had a simple goal to keep the peace
Believe the disrespectful in the streets deceased
In ninety-three before Dickies had the double knees
And oldies and Mickey's we was guzzling
Back when money was another thing
And knowing who's who wasn't puzzling
So many homies dark and only crazy souls
That live on in our memories from days of old
So many homies dark and only crazy souls
That live on in our memories from days of old
Take it back to the days when the songs they would play
They would take me away, take me, take me away
And everyone was having fun
And everyone was having fun
Can you take it back? Can you take it back?
Can you take it back? Take me, take me back
Can you take it back? Can you take it back?
Can you take it back? Take me, take me back
Take me back to the days of old
White wall tires, triple four times gold
Old school bumping when we cruise and stroll
Four cars deep rolling to the car show
Rolling hella clean, rolling hella deep
Creed throwing fourteen
Sipping on my Heem when I pull up to the scene
Two fine honies trying to holla at me
Back in ninety-eight was the days for me
Little knucklehead homie that I was raised to be
Only fourteen on my lowrider bike
On my late night hype and another gang fight
Old school bandana shirts and shit
Nike Cortez with them Chucks and a kit
Ditching high school just to kick it with the clique
Gather up the homies with the same old trip
Friday, Saturday, party all night
Sunday barbecue, kick back and get high
Pull up in the whip and watch my ride
Another Sunday stroll, look at me, I'm looking tired
All white, all white on my pants slash jeans
On the telephone, yeah, my crew's Chevys
Man, but me, I'm the one that's creased
Old days letters on my crisp red tee
I see you, papi, you know you're looking good
I love to see the homies still posted in the hood
Creased down, strapped up, Dickies, khakis, rocking Chucks
Keep it gangsta, keep it old school, and we'll never switch it up
Take it back to the days when the songs they would play
They would take me away, take me, take me away
And everyone was having fun
And everyone was having fun
Can you take it back? Can you take it back?
Can you take it back? Take me, take me back
Can you take it back? Can you take it back?
Can you take it back? Take me, take me back
Growing up in Northside Fremont
You'd find me and Gorilla Wound posted on the G block
Those were the days when I was just a little homegirl
Take you to another place, I'm taking you to my world
Striking with the homies, take it back to the lakes
Barbecues at Los Cerritos and chilling on the gates
Things ain't the same as those days fade away
And everyone has changed, but the memories remain
I miss those days when life was fun
I miss those days when we were young
When I hear the songs they were playing back then
They always take me back and I'm young again
Tripping on a memory
Reminiscing on the days and how good it used to be
Take it back to the days when the songs they would play
They would take me away, take me, take me away
And everyone was having fun
And everyone was having fun
Can you take it back? Can you take it back?
Can you take it back? Take me, take me back
Can you take it back? Can you take it back?
Can you take it back? Take me, take me back
I miss those days when life was fun
I miss those days when we were young
