[Verse 1]
Gm A
As I'm strolling down the block with really nothing on my mind
Dm7 Dm6
Laid back and I'm just thinking of old times
Gm A
Pop in a Isley Brothers tape and I'm maxing
Dm7 Dm6
Peeping through my side view, checking out my waxing
Gm A
Hey, I gotta say
Dm7 Dm6
Today's a good day for me to live around the way (ho)
Gm A
Time to hit the 6-4
Dm7 Dm6
And pump the bass at 'em just to let 'em know
Gm A
Aaliyah's in the house, so I think you'd better check my flow
Dm7 Dm6
Hello, hello
Gm A
I'm the young nation and young nation is me
Dm7 Dm6
So here we go, from the 1 the 2 and 2 the 3

Gm A
I check my cellular because my beeper's beeping
Dm7 Dm6
Booty calls are creeping, fellas on the corner peeping
Gm A
Me (wassup); time to set it off
Dm7 Dm6
And so I pick up my girls and hit the strip just because
Gm A
Jazz array hey, it's Saturday and
Dm7 Dm6
The sun is blazing, it's so amazing
Gm A
And if you are a YNP
Dm7 Dm6
And you're rolling with the C#GE Congratulations
Gm A
I know I got the skills to make you trip
Dm7 Dm6
R Kelly's flipping tracks, so grab a hold and don't you slip
Gm A
The negative young nation that steps to me gets dealt with
Dm7 Dm6
So raise your hands if you're sure
Gm
Are you a young nation?

Gm A
Well, 6 o' clock rolls around and now I'm stepping
Dm7 Dm6
Stop to get some dressing, to the mall I'm flexing
Gm A
You know to get them funky croaka-sacks
Dm7 Dm6
Tonight I'm hitting the town, ain't holding nothing back
Gm A
Hey, well alright
Dm7 Dm6
Tonight is the night
Gm A
Well I'm in the mood for celebration
Dm7 Dm6
Or even some jazzy conversation
Gm A
Hey, it's okay
