Millennials Anthem by Tenn Buick Lyrics
Intro
Ay yo one time for the millennials…
90s kid, 2000s teen, you know the vibes…
Guess it’s time for us to grow up now…
SIKE!
Verse 1
They heard me spit it on the Tok, they said Tenn, the rhymes fire
I would virus up my PC just to cop this shit on LimeWire
This is for my peoples who was dialin’ up for internet
And codin’ up our Myspaces before we got on Twitter yet
Before Facebook and Instagram, I was listenin’ to jams
On my walkman, saw dial-up turn to broadband
Before we ever had to think of workin’ 9 to 5
It was solitaire and Minesweepеr, Windows 95
Talkin’ back when TRL would give us somethin’ to bop to
Saw Da Brat on All That, baby pump up thе volume
We was livin’ in the best era, love it, you gots to
Talkin’ back when Happy Meals had McNuggets in costume
So put your hands up if you had Dunkaroos at snack time
Lunchables and Sunny D, you already know I packed mine
Meet me after school, I’m John Elway with the Vortex
Wild and crazy kids, we was legends, word to Olmec
Hook
One time for the millennials (x 4)
Verse 2
Before the internet became a place you could achieve fame
There was Fox Kids, where we was watchin’ Pinky peeve Brain
You know where I would chat if I could make a time machine? AIM
I was spittin’ mean game, shawty what’s your ScreenName?
We was watchin’ VHS and DVDs in my day
Crushin’ on Melissa Joan Hart every Friday
Multicolored iMacs, Oregon Trail
Signin’ on to AOL, you’ve got mail
Coppin’ Goosebumps and Animorphs up at the book fair
Air Maxes, had to have the bubbles in your footwear
Blockbuster, Pizza Hut, ain’t a night better
First cellie, had to tap it thrice to get the right letter
Before Snapchat I had the Yak Bak and Tamagotchi
Rugrats and Johnny Bravo were the toons that I was watchin’
Talkin’ back when all the ladies had the Juicy ‘cross the booty
Before they had e-girls, it was Doug’s sister, Judy
Hook
Verse 3
Beanie Babies, Pogs, Polly Pocket, Mighty Max
Green Ranger was the best ranger, that’s a 90s fact
Every Nick Magazine, we would get a new poster
Hell, I love the 90s more than Kel loves orange soda
We ain’t had no streamin’ services, but we was gettin’ by
Back when everybody had the Fresh Prince memorized
Big Will, ain’t nobody had no better swag
All the tech was clear, feelin’ like you up in Dexter’s Lab
N64, Super Smash Brothers daily
Listenin’ to Eminem would drive your parents crazy
Racin’ to the bathroom if commercials comin’ on
Red and Blue wasn’t politics to us, it was Pokémon
Remember NBA, and watchin’ Jordan play? Damn
Walkin’ out the movies after watchin’ Space Jam
Back when hip hop had Big and Pac still on the mic blessin’
And watchin’ Hey Arnold we was learnin’ life lessons
