Dela - The Sag [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's Aloe Blacc takin' it back
On this Dela track
Check it out

[Verse 1: Aloe Blacc]
I use to rock a sag, Exile did too
Blame One the whole crew
My boy Dave still do
We was all into the style, but it was more than that
Just like, hip hop culture much more than rap
It was definition of self, membership to the clan
Men of a certain cloth, but clothing don't make the man
Status when status mattered, not seeing the superficial
A situational issue if you sag on the issue
Humiliators try to affiliate us with thugs
Even though we show, love with a pound and a hug
Cops wanna approach us, encroach on our freedom
Three counts for J, when we say that we don't need 'em
One time I was riding my bike, in my hood
One time flashing like I'm up to no good
Made me empty my pockets, lookin' for some proof
Asking me why I sag, hip hop was my excuse yo

[Hook]
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag (In my younger days I use to)
Now in my younger, now in my younger
Now in my younger days I used to (I use to sport that sag)

Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag (I use to sport that sag)
Now in my younger, now in my younger (I use to sport that sag)
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag

[Verse 2]
Headphones and beats
Lines and white sheets of college rule
Back then the pen was a solid tool
See when you havin' too much fun it flies on you
Father time ain't got none to keep his eyes on you
Before you know what happened all of the years of rapping
Fall by the wayside, I never thought I say I'd be still in the game
Like this a wish on a prayer
To be here and have a career as a rhyme sayer
Even though a lot of things done change for the worse
Still takes a little skill to write a hell of a verse
Still gotta wear your Sunday slacks to church
But every other day you know you got to sag low

(Yeah, I remember one time I even tried to sag at church. I got corrected really quick. You can't do that)

[Hook]
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag (I use to sport that sag)
Now in my younger, now in my younger
Now in my younger days I used to (Back in the I use to sport that sag)

Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag (I use to sport that sag)
Now in my younger, now in my younger (All of my homies use to sport that sag)
Now in my younger days I use to sport a sag

[Verse 3]
My sag is gone, never thought that I would miss him
He was one of my best friends, my pops use to diss him
Moms yellin', tellin' me to turn it down from the kitchen
Blasting Emanon when I sit back to listen
When in Rome that's how the old cliché start
But in hip hop today, I can't play that part
Sometimes I sit back and remember the way we
Would rock new fits and sag on the daily
That was then, this is now the style switched up
Ladies got hipped to the style and they picked up the sag
You can tell it from the back
The pants be cut low and they showin' they're ass crack

[Hook]
