[Verse (Manny Phesto)]
When I was young I knew we'd take them by surprise
Peace to those relating to our lives
In a way we're all alike at the laboratory late into the night
Still haven't found the woman I would make into my wife
Just looking for the energy that makes us want to write
And we've all got an ego that'll make us want to fight
Another Harlem night
It's America get happy at a bargain price
When we living in harder times
Look at different things but see them the same
Needless to say one in the hand is worth three in the bank
Everybody's got a history they need to erase
But one thing we can do is just believe in today
Or you could be regretful full of questions that you didn't ask
Living fast so sometimes you count the eggs that didn't hatch
And your the man now so what if plans don't pan out
Take a hand out or lay the smack down
[Verse (Tall Paul)]
Cacklin' silly Max and Billy split & matched a philly
But Max didn't really wanna smoke it he's just actin illy
See Billy was his big homie, felt a bit lonely
So he asked Max to snatch five to help provide the stogie
Max a Joey, so he bounced at Billy's every word
Noun to verb Max took action grabbed a five from grandmas purse
And dispersed with his half in hand towards the bag of herb
Dastard jerk now Max has confessions for his grandma's church
Anyway he'd proceed strutting Billy's way
Smiles on Billy's face when Max got to Billy's place
They're both feeling really great Billy got his blunt rolled
Max met his approval when he would choose to smoke his first toke
But when they both got caught shmokin' on that Marijuana
Max made me do it's exactly what Billy told his Momma
I suppose it didn't help that Max took his grandma for a dollar
Cause he got a whooping kids know your friends just trying to warn ya
