Am B
As I'm strolling down the block with really nothing on my mind
Em7 Em6
Laid back and I'm just thinking of old times
Am B
Pop in a Isley Brothers tape and I'm maxing
Em7 Em6
Peeping through my side view, checking out my waxing
Am B
Hey, I gotta say
Em7 Em6
Today's a good day for me to live around the way (ho)
Am B
Time to hit the 6-4
Em7 Em6
And pump the bass at 'em just to let 'em know
Am B
Aaliyah's in the house, so I think you'd better check my flow
Em7 Em6
Hello, hello
Am B
I'm the young nation and young nation is me
Em7 Em6

Am B
I check my cellular because my beeper's beeping
Em7 Em6
Booty calls are creeping, fellas on the corner peeping
Am B
Me (wassup); time to set it off
Em7 Em6
And so I pick up my girls and hit the strip just because
Am B
Jazz array hey, it's Saturday and
Em7 Em6
The sun is blazing, it's so amazing
Am B
And if you are a YNP
Em7 Em6
And you're rolling with the D#GE Congratulations
Am B
I know I got the skills to make you trip
Em7 Em6
R Kelly's flipping tracks, so grab a hold and don't you slip
Am B
The negative young nation that steps to me gets dealt with
Em7 Em6
So raise your hands if you're sure
Am
Are you a young nation?

Well, 6 o' clock rolls around and now I'm stepping
Em7 Em6
Stop to get some dressing, to the mall I'm flexing

You know to get them funky croaka-sacks
