whale - old school love (an ode to jazz) lyrics

[verse 1: whale]
gimme that, late jazz, new blues, old school
feeling like his second album so cool
if you dont remember what i told you
know i hold it down, in my city like i’m sposed to
yeah, that girl is pretty but that’s old news
thinking eric b., bring the rap to the old blues
i’ll be rakim, bring a sax, yeah you heard my game
if i’m as jazzy as jeff, hope the prince will learn my name
same mic of the tribe, yeah that’s where i’m from
respect my elders, tip and phife cause i’m only young
now these the same things, that made the new you
but your swing dont mean thing because you’re new school
the new 2, a new coupe a new gucci rag
can you ever rap with the sk!lls that you knew he had?
now the rapper sad, yeah, can’t get on
cause he stuck in the city but he’s never home

[hook x2: whale]
as long as i’m here
as long you love me
just gimme that old school love right now

[verse 2: whale]
do you not remember what i told you?
you still think i like her? man that old news
if yo a n-z- then i gotta be the jew
but if i flip around the vice versa who could you shoot
take your old shoes you need walk on home
go back to the city where they singing your song yeah, cause no one wants you in here
and you better get out, before my people come near
you introducing the fear, relaying the hate i’m reproducing the trust, but you can even relate you everything we can’t have and everything we can’t rock with
and yet you wonder why we saying man stop it so please, stop, get outta my town
or recognize an mc who be holding it down
i hope you see this mc standing right the top
if i’m on cloud nine then the rhymes never stop

[hook x2: whale]

[verse 3: whale]
i guess you don’t remember what i told you
cause everything that you be saying is old news
and everything that i mean doing on the mic, how i’m doing it so right
do you really think i know you?
i kinda figured you had figured out by now
and i guess you understood it cause i see you getting out
but you ain’t looking very sober
better speed up your mind, before you blink and it’s over
that 182 is nice but not the same as old school
i mean real old, duke ellington what we roll to
fast rap, cypher rhyme, back in the day
so i give thanks to jazz and cab calloway
when he put it down, he really put it away
people would hear a versed verse and they wanted to say, hey!
so when you needing a hug just escape from the presence into my old school love

[bridge: whale]
gimme that old school love right now
once i said it, know i mean it
and i gave it what i want
gimme that old school love right now
you know i got you, you won’t be alone

[hook x2: whale]

[outro: whale]
a recollection of that old school love
help you to see so you knew what it was
now you know what you did, back in the shrug
every place, every time that you tried to remember
everything you did, back in that september
old school love, a recollection of the beat
we’re branching out and moving closer to the street
i may not be that old but just so you know where i’m at
only young rapper here that ain’t afraid to take it back
