Saukrates - Father time

[@RuukusBeats]

I miss this raw Hip-Hop. .....oh, wait... in 1995, I was... 1 year old. So this is the proof that the Golden Age Hip-Hop is not only for nostalgic people, it's gonna live for a long time !

[@FleeJams]

1994 here, its an awesome feeling finding gems like this, I've made friends with people twice my age because I know more than biggie, tupac, wu, etc. No disrespect to the legends.

[@cratedigga.mp3]

Born in 94' only real hiphop in this house.

[@roel5505]

[@NORMALLYRETRO]

. . .I have been looking for this song for 16 years. I had NO idea who made this or any of the lyrics--just the part where he said "if the clock keeps ticking" I can't express my gratitude for you uploading this. YES!!!!!!

[@squirrel7204]

I was blessed by Stretch and Bobbito show 89.9 growing up in the 90's in the Dirty Jerz

[@squirrel7204]

Glad you found it NormRetro. I pump it everyday

[@Commendo2024]

I remember dubbing this from CKCU Ottawa Station on cassette late night Saturdays in the early 90s

[@nicolasgarney]

words cant even express how great this song is

[@bloodtypeaudio372]

Heard this first time from a bootlegged Dj Lazy-K tape, back in the day. Been a Saukrates loyal since that day. Big up to TO.

[@swayeeboogie1941]

Man i remember banging this hard in the 90's still dope as the first time I heard it. Didn't know then that this was Canada representing but soon became aware of the dope artists they had there like Kardinal, Choclair, Rascals etc. I miss this hip hop.

[@ibcc_]

a buddy and I use to bump this when we were younger and a few years ago we were gone on shrooms, I found this song and played it out loud for the first time in years, was the craziest feeling in the world. amazing track

[@alexreilly5186]

That's gold!

[@k4nc3r]

Had this on one of my earliest mix CD's. Just heard it now after almost two decades. Awesome shit

[@imindsasim]

ibcc_4040 isn't it crazy how music n sense of smell are like time machines ?

[@Stoney-Jacksman]

not crazy since we link a lot to our senses..smell, sound, taste, vision , touch. but its dope tho..and amazing.

so often in the 90's there were unstoppable bombs thrown on wax in clubs, teflon gear and fresh vibe, long lives underground hip hop

[@staygold15]

The OFFICIAL blood type of HIP HOP

[@seancreary7406]

One of fav. Tracks from Big saukrates.... nuff respect to the 416

[@roel5505]

[@mico1664]

416 classic. Toronto hip hop in the mid 90s was unique and timeless

[@yukmouth23jayrich23]

Probably the best Canadian Rap song of all time.

[Verse 1] Father Time ticks on to the early morning breaks of dawn I'm an emperor whose empire crushes the pawn I gave birth to a novel scene Stealing the cream, whoo blow out your smoke screen So, nigga freeze cause this MC in every degree Can have a punk spilling head cheese Saukrates a felon, in this rap game rebelling And rock stadiums like Van Halen Or Bruce Springsteen, what is war good for my nigga? Even when cash rules, you still lose my nigga Quoting the words of a shottie When who is becomes who was and who could have been Will never be somebody All I want's a green in my gene The Earth is mean so I plot mad fucking schemes Wild for the night, fuck being polite, my nigga You're drowning in shit creek without a fight What, some old psych shit, you wanna battle? Touch the mic and see how close you might get I'll bust your mental click and send you back to your dimension of wackness Dodge, block and end with a back flip So then the beat becomes shank Let the fat woman scream it ain't over 'til I finish my skank, nigga JID “Dance Now' Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified [Chorus] If the time runs out, then brother you will get turned out And if the clock keeps ticking, then nigga you will lose no doubt If the time runs out, then brother you will lose no doubt And if the clock keeps ticking, then nigga you will lose no doubt If the time runs out, then brother you will get turned out And if the clock keeps ticking, then nigga you will lose no doubt [Verse 2] Make money money night and day Follow in the footsteps so you can float a Ac around the way Every day's a payday, crooks are living the life of kings In the ghetto, emeralds and fat diamond rings Stay alive and strive, let a nigga know that you're real And quit playing Leonard Part 5 Recognize my rhyme, a Valentines Day of deadly love Powerful like Daddy Time Keep checking your watch before I've tooken your home plate I'm Jackie Robinson, you better dodge Brooklyn My mack will never crack, so fuck pussy bunting I got Mother Nature sucking my dick down to nothing Ah, an asset to the rhyming biz, my nigga Never ask me what time it is, I'll kick a quiz And go sphinx on your ass and ask you If a nigga falls in the ghetto, will they harass you And as you sit and think a deadly venom starts to sink Through your fucking skin and melts your link to Charmin Getting low on Tanqueray Flip the script on a A&R, stifle him as R&A Promising is comforting to the fool but works some of the time But word is bond, the smirk son Better be wiped by tomorrow night, finito Capisce? Or I'll have my way like Carlito If the time runs out, then brother you will get turned out And if the clock keeps ticking, then nigga you will lose no doubt If the time runs out, then brother you will lose no doubt And if the clock keeps ticking, then nigga you will lose no doubt If the time runs out, then brother you will get turned out And if the clock keeps ticking, then nigga you will lose no doubt
