You want to know my life? Well let me give you a backdrop
I was born in the era of the flattop
Low cut age orders with the black socks
We was runnin DMC and chillin with AdRock
Ma was broke and dad did crack-rock
So I hit the streets to keep the padlock
Off our apartment door
Me and my mans
Holdin the floor
Standin in front of the stash spot
Until one day my little sister got popped
And took away my whole life in a snaps shot
And it might sound gory but thats the unfortunate story
Between the haves and the have nots
Between the gots and the ain't gots
I was tired of not getting so I got up and go
So lets go
Yeah
C`mon
Baby get on the floor come on shake it with me
So far, we're not coming down
Baby get on the floor
`Cause I know you believe
We've come too far to turn back now
Too far too-too-too far
(Too far)
Too far too-too-too far
Don't want to think about yesterday
Or the times that slipped away
Or the things that people say
Cause I'm just living my life
And I can have anything if I choose it
And I'm ready and willin to prove it
Ooh, I like the way you move it
So lets get down tonight.
C`mon and show me what you've got
Keep it moving please dont stop
Don't wanna worry `bout tomorrow
All we've got is here and now
Baby get on the floor come on shake it with me
So far, we're not coming down
Baby get on the floor
`Cause I know you believe
We've come too far to turn back now
Too far too-too-too far
(Too far)
Too far too-too-too far
