Refrain 
       F                          E7 
  Yo, back in the days I used to listen to records 
     Asus4                                         Am 
  Trying to figure out how I could make my own records 
   F                       E7 
  Working in restaurants, busting on dishes 
   Asus4                                   Am 
  Hoping that the man upstairs respect my wishes 
   F                       E7 
  Cigarette lighters, Ardig wallets, I was selling them 
    Asus4  N.C. 
  'Till I met the B.H. and bust down A Capella to him 
   F                       E7 
    He said you got talent and you're going places 
       Asus4                                                    Am 
  I'd heard that line before but what the heck, I signed the papers 
  F                              E7 
  Ever since that day I drew my head high it was on 
       Asus4 
  And now I'm mixing new music with the old school songs
