about

A simple heavy melodic beat, Not the 80s, was written to take you back and forth in the past to the present. John Sha explores the similarities and differences between both eras. Acknowledging the advances but also pointing out the shortcomings.

lyrics

Everybody got that car this is not the 80s


Everybody hit that broad this is not the 80s


This is not the 80s


This is not the 80s

Look at this they was using guns we was using sticks; make a grip tape a razor blade towards the tip of it; beat a man to death this is not the 80s; make sure you keep a strap don't be fucking lazy; you should be a man before you make a baby; she should weigh a gram before that's ya lady; my bitch work at Meryl lynch this is not the 80s; we into white collar shit this is not the 80s; i told her pack me out a pound i gotta plug from Haiti; I'm on a China grey hound so the plug can pay me; This is not the 80s; This is not the 80s;

I switched the hustle often but i was muscle often; we get out the building i hate the sight of coffins; the sour got me coughing catch you like you koffing; Balenciagas ain't made for running but you look awesome; i ain't spraying in a crowd this is not the 80s; we see you then we running down this is not the 80s; bitches selling pussy now this is not the 80s; ain't a man to hold them down this is not the 80s;

Save up and start a business that's the only exit; or get a hobby that supplies you with a little extra; don't belittle let's work if it's little let it grow; in the middle when it hurts just remembered when you birthed; and that's not the 80s; This is not the 80s;

These niggas ain't tucking they chains this is not the 80s;
