Check the mic, one two, is this thing on?

Check the mic, one two, is this thing on?

Yeah, we ’bout to take it back to the golden sun

Where the freedom was raw, the future was bright

You feel the bassline? Turn up the night

IPod Shuffle stuck on repeat, same old track

Split the headphones with my ride-or-die, ain't no lookin' back

Cruisin' down the freeway, sun drippin' on the palm trees

Bad quality pics on the Razr, but the memory's HD

From the West Coast breeze to the East Side street heat

Everything was simple, everything was sweet

Felt like nothin' could touch us, felt like we owned the town

Yeah, we ran this city, never lookin' down

That Sunshine glow on my whole damn crew

Liftin' up the cup to the sky, me and you

No Doubt, No Cap, this was the real deal

A place you can't go back to, but the feeling's real

Forever 2005, let the moment loop

That timeless heat, that everlasting groove

Low-rise waistline, my girl lookin' fly

Bling-Bling chain heavy, reachin' for the sky

Burning up the CDs, stacks up on the desktop

MySpace status set, we knew we wouldn't stop

We didn't talk 'bout fear, we just talked 'bout success

We had the secret handshake, the ultimate test

The air was heavy, but the beat was louder

We was livin' on the edge, hungry for the power

That Sunshine glow on my whole damn crew

Liftin' up the cup to the sky, me and you

No Doubt, No Cap, this was the real deal

A place you can't go back to, but the feeling's real

Forever 2005, let the moment loop

That timeless heat, that everlasting groove

The world changed on a cold September day

But we kept the dance floor movin' anyway

Refused to let the darkness ever make us lose scope

We were tough kids, full of fire and dream

That confidence, that tough, young B-Boy stance

Just a moment of peace, on the crowded dance

The air was heavy, but the beat was louder

We was livin' on the edge, hungry for the power

That Sunshine glow on my whole damn crew

Liftin' up the cup to the sky, me and you

No Doubt, No Cap, this was the real deal

A place you can't go back to, but the feeling's real

Forever 2005, let the moment loop

That timeless heat, that everlasting groove

Yeah, that old school sound

Forever young, forever now
