Bringing a chip to the city
I want my chips with the dip
That's all I know
Blood pumping when I step on the stage
97' I was let out the cage
Never had shit so I let out the rage
I'm hearing loud crowds
Shrooms had a nigga up on the moon
Feel like the creature
Came out the lagoon
Yeah,yeah,yeah
Cruising the city with me and my migos
Music shit easy
Just kind like a free throw
Me and my own man
I don't worry where he go
Shout out to city
You know that's my people
Yeah
Shout to city
You know that's my people
You know that's my people
Yeah move lemme get through
It's a whole lotta shit I gotta do
So please bitch move
Lemme get through
It's a whole lotta shit I gotta do man
I say
I cannot sleep no more
I'm awake
It's getting deep I know
What can you take
See
Bitch we on the move
Say bitch I'm on the move
Aye

Aye nigga
Say bitch I'm the move, move

Move, lemme get through
It's a whole lotta shit I gotta do
So please bitch

Lemme get through
It's a whole lotta shit I gotta do man
I say I cannot sleep no more
I'm wide awake
Aye , look
It's getting deep I know
What can you take
Bitch I'm on the move

This is why my dad showed me this video, he went to same school as well and knows Doug Lucas’s son. Small world.
@johnh.6942
@@willm1291 it was a good School .We started late that year as they were slow finishing the construction. The ninth grade class was large and we really enjoyed each other. For the most part the teachers there were really wonderful. I only remember one bad one and that was the science teacher Mr Alaman. I think that was his name or close to it. The lives we led were pretty extraordinary compared to the kids these days. Ask your dad if he remembers Lily Loveland and Porky.
