[Chorus: Collistar & Tempo]

It's the nineteen-nineties kid

Used to wear black Nike kicks

Used to catch that nineties bus

Now I drive it back to the bitch (yeah)

It's that track from the nineties

I used to wear black nineties

I used to catch that ninety

Now I drive it past that ninety

[Verse 1: Collistar, Tempo, Collistar & Tempo]

Back of the bus on the MP3's

Sugar rush from the 5p sweets

Talkin' Da Hardest played on repeat

Played football 'till dark in the street

Sit at home on the MSN

Had no credit to text back then

Tryin' spliffs on the one-two blem

Goin' up central LDN

TFL over BMX

See new girls, JD creps

Air force ones, so white, so fresh

G-Star jeans and a Primark vest

My mom, she made me vex

"Get home now! You make me stress!"

Now I gotta go back home

Man watch his [?] in my phone

Ahhhhhh, ninety-seven!

Back in the day, I thought I was Beckham!

FIFA, Dragon Ball Z and Tekken

Babycakes and that twenty-one seconds

Beef in parks, on streets 'till dark

Smoke weed so we was the part

Repeatedly break some hearts

We just grew up way too fast

Back then things weren't so pricey

Now it's 125 for ninety-five Nike's

105 for the nineties, Freddos are 20, used to be 5p

Now it's boot-cut jeans, no tight jeans

No XO tops, no tight tees

This one's for the kids that were born past 95

That's in the late nineties!


[Chorus: Collistar & Tempo]

It's the nineteen-nineties kid

Used to wear black Nike kicks

Used to catch that nineties bus

Now I drive it back to the bitch (yeah)

It's that track from the nineties

I used to wear black nineties

I used to catch that ninety

Now I drive it past that ninety

[Verse 2: Collistar, Tempo, Collistar & Tempo]

I was born in the nineties

But you know that the naughties raised me

Ninety-seven I was only a baby

Them times it was bigger when Jay-Z

Wouldn't hear a flow that was lazy

Wouldn't hear no mumble rap

Just them old school vibes in the jungle trap

That's back to the days of the Thundercat

Back in the day used to pump the train

We'd kick ball in the park, in the mud and rain

Tops, jeans, jumpers stained

Pass backyard on the H18

Yeah my dad got pissed if I came home late

I used to wear Kappa and Reebok

Now Stoney's keeping the team hot

Mandem cop tops off Depot

Whole swag coming off eBay

And they cop arms from TK

Ralph Lauren, AJ and CK

Shirt costs 60 just like Three Apes

Onsets might skip past like Relay

Get a few wills from the DJ

Sometimes go pub on the weekday

Still kick ball on the weekends

Saturday night in the East End

No stunting, man I don't pretend

Ta-ta-talking 'bout girls and cars

I smoke L's whilst writing bars

Soon be sixty lighting cigars

Drinking a pint at the end of the bar

I sit down watch life go past

Life that we live just moves too fast


[Chorus: Collistar & Tempo]

It's the nineteen-nineties kid

Used to wear black Nike kicks

Used to catch that nineties bus

Now I drive it back to the bitch (yeah)

It's that track from the nineties

I used to wear black nineties

I used to catch that ninety

Now I drive it past that ninety
