lyrics

they cross the street when they see us pickin their feet up/ in need of some type of product their people cant see them pick up/ only my type of people can have it and have the habit/ to have it so you can grab it and now you just gotta have it/ depending on who youre asking the perpetrator is darkish/ got rocks and blows in the parkish some people saying hes thuggish/ and Jimmy said "when you get there just throw the dough in the garbage/ got greenst youve ever seen and them other niggas is rubbish"/ JImmy just called him nigga but really meant to say nigger/ excuses is he's got a black friend hmmm go figure/ back to the pharmaceutical pusher you think is suitable/ mollies, perkies and yayo, Quentin, the next cubicle/ really though I was posted here doing some people watching/ figured i'd be your urbanite, help you clear up your option/ played it real cool, showed me the dough and asked for two/ i should've played the stereotype brother and just robbed you

HOOK: so I gotta keep on moving/
aint nobody gonna move it for me so i gotta keep keep keep keep on/ i was born to rock, so i gotta just keep keep keep keep keep on moving/ aint nobody gonna move it for me so i gotta keep keep keep keep on/ i was born to rock, so i gotta just keep keep keep keep

There goes the neighborhood, really they've stopped and staring/ the heavens have opened up, blessed the corner with melanin/ better get ready what happens next is simply amazing/ they've formed a neighborhood watch but its mostly you that they're watching/ they cross the street when they see us just barely moving/ imagine what would happen if i actually started shooting/ im obviously starting riots, breaking in cars, looting/ supposed to be tap dancing, shucking, jiving and hooting/ (here they come) stand ground, movements got really little/ celly out in the open "see!? no pistol"/ so here's the best part they're trying to be "nice"/ "are you lost homeboy?", "you speak so well!" nice/ only chip in the cookie and holding my ice grill/ they brought up Lil' Jimmy his black-cent was ill/ we met the other day and he wanted to run away/ this time his alter ego aint have shit to say

HOOK: so I gotta keep on moving/
aint nobody gonna move it for me so i gotta keep keep keep keep on/ i was born to rock, so i gotta just keep keep keep keep keep on moving/ aint nobody gonna move it for me so i gotta keep keep keep keep on/ i was born to rock, so i gotta just keep keep keep keep
