 Progression:
 Classified]
 My, my, my, my  dad says they don't make music like they use  to
And  nowadays there ain't no record store to root  through
We  upload and then we viewin it on YouTube
Digital  to Bluetooth, I see why that confuse  you
This  day and age, shit it's hard to tell who's  who
So  many artists, every week you hear a new  group
Maybe  it's me or possibly I got a screw  loose
A  raisin short of two scoops but we don't do what you  do (do, do)
 Mic Boyd]
Now-now-now-nowadays  when I turn on the radio  (yeah)
It's  like they take the same old song and play  it out (true)
Might  be your favorite now but hate it in a day  or so
Here  today, gone tomorrow, that's how the saying  goes
The  oldies were timeless and classic  (that's right)
Music  now is models and actress  (ah naw)
Who  we pay to ogle they asses  (yeah)
Never  liked metal but still prefer it to plastic
 Classified (Mic Boyd) - w/ ad libs]
My  dad says they don't make music like they use  to
(Oh  no they don't, no they don't, no  they don't)
And  my crew says they don't make beats like they use  to
(Oh  no they don't, no they don't, no  they don't)
You  know what I-I think? It's just the music that I'm use  to
(It's  what I'm use to, it's what I'm use  to)
I  need my headphones louder, louder, louder,  louder, louder, louder, louder,
 Mic Boyd]
Drum  machines with touch screens, this must be the future
One  man band all recorded on computer
Cubase,  Cakewalk and Pro Tools users
Filtered  effects and overused Auto-Tuners
(If  you can't hit the note), then hit a switch
Artists  can't get  the pitch and end up  "singing like this"
Sounds  like robots are takin our jobs
 While these same  record labels keep on payin 'em off
 Classified]
Now  have you ever thought about the old records we were proud  to play (yeah)
And  if you heard them for the first time nowadays?  (yeah)
Would  we give the same props, same amount  of praise? (nope)
I  highly doubt it eh, it'd probably sound out  of date (yeah)
Or  maybe life nowadays kind of cloud  our taste (yeah)
And  hearin old tracks takes us back around  the way (woo)
Yeah,  still soundin great, off to outer  space
Without  a trace, leavin eardrums bent out  of shape
