I was in need
I was in need
I remember a long time ago
I remember a long time ago
They say Chi don't dance no more
And the little kids don't got a chance no more
They ain't even tryna free the old man no more
One day there won't be no old man no more
Mr. Darden used to take the bus over from Halsted
Mr. Harper used to be so exhausted
The barbershop bustlin bootleg Lacoste fits
Forget the DVDs they tryna get that golf drip
Freckles bifocals and Kangol hats
Spinning stories about blocks that they can't go back
Singing songs about the women that they can't hold back
They used to rub em on their hair that they cant grow back
Clippers buzzing crying grand baby boy cousin
The first cut lil man "Quit all that fussin"
God the Father may love you
The world doesn't
That's how I learned to put my dukes up and play the dozens
Lessons and the strategies of love and war
Chessboards and King Magazines galore
It's a lot less love than it was before
It's a lot less old men than it was before
I say we gone live til our hair turn white
No law can find our names
And when we run no one's chasing us
Streetlights on the kids all come back home
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
They say Chi don't dance no more
And the kids don't even got a chance no more
They even tryna free the old man no more
Pretty soon there'll won't be no old man no more
I dance with my father Luther Vandross
We play catch so much I turned to Randy Moss
I had uncles all up and down 79th
With his boys betting on Floyd every fight
Cold beers and cigar smoke
Pelle coats Card decks and some harsh jokes
Jacks when they cars broke
Sleep in separate rooms for years when they hearts broke
So at least somebody there if they start stroke
I used to play Street Fighter with my play cousin
Now the streets'll have you playing with your real cousin
They said the world didn't love me and it still doesn't
I guess that "real old love" wasn't real was it?
The present is past
The future is sick
The culture gave us cut-out life-sized funeral pics
Where's your instincts
Act like you forgot
It's the Four Black Commandments
Man you know how we rock
It goes
1 Watch your health that's your wealth
2 Watch yo brother that's yoself
3 Watch your home that's your door
4 If they want it we go to war
In the distant future
The twilight of our lives
Contains all the laughs and highlights of our lives
The knowledge that could help a young man go forth
Fore the day you don't see these old men no more
I say we gone live til our hair turn white
Til our hair turn white
No law can find our names No law can find our names
And when we run no one's chasing us
Street lights on The kids all come back home
The kids always come home y'all
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on it go
And on and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
Til our hair turn white
No law can find our names
The kids always come home y'all
I say We gone live til our hair turn white
No law can find our names
And when we run no one's chasing us
Streetlights on the kids all come back home
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it go
On and on and on and on it go
