Flashback Lyrics


There's a frame in a box, in a yellow cab.
There's a girl in the back and that's all she has . . .
To remind her of what it was like before things turned bad. (Oh)
There's an old black and white and there's two lovers smiling.
Its' late in the day but the sun is still shining.
They look so young and in love, fit for, and it was such a Kodak moment.
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and it takes me back to what we had.
As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and its love like that, that never lasts.
As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)
There's a frame in a box, in a yellow cab.
There's a girl in the back and that's all she has . . .
To remind her of what it was like before things turned bad. (Oh whoa)
There's an old black and white and there's two lovers smiling.
Its' late in the day but the sun is still shining.
They look so young and in love, fit for, and it was such a Kodak moment.
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and it takes me back to what we had.

As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and its love like that, that never lasts.
As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)
Flash-, flashback photograph. [Graph . . . graph.]
(Flash-, flashback photograph.) [Graph . . . graph.]
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and it takes me back to what we had.
As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and its love like that, that never lasts.
As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and it takes me back to what we had.
As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)
Flash-, flashback to the photograph and its love like that, that never lasts.
As we fade to black, I keep holding on. (Flash-, flashback photograph.)

Parallel Uni-Verses is a joint effort between Hieroglyphics founder Del The Funky Homosapien and original Artifacts emcee Tame One. Produced entirely by Parallel Thought, the album's twelve tracks return to a time when inventiveness, creativity, funky beats, and, above all, lyricism, ruled hip hop.

Parallel Uni-Verses is that rare rap album which transcends tired cliches and maintains traditional hip hop values without seeming retro or passe. "Man, I ain't even gonna be egotistical like that and try to say that we are trying to usher in some new revival of whatever," Del says. However, he adds, "I'm saying this: we ARE the element that is missing not [just] because I said so. That's what's up; we didn't sell out for all the luxury and monetary gains. The original ways, we kept at and built upon those."

Proving that true lyricism is alive and well, Parallel Uni-Verses is another feather in the cap for Del and Tame, two prolific and highly-respected artists upholding the hip hop art form at its best---and holding their own in 2009.
