Man,

on yo bike 
carrying a bag of

But,

up;

wearing dat suit, 
and shinny 
shoes....

Know what I'm say'n

Dude 
It's been years,

Dat was a nice 
spot
front dat Liquor sto'

Homie  -

Front dah gas station  -

Yo!

Straight up -

You gotta a dime

Back N dah day

We

Dah Square 

Know what I'm say'n
