[BRIDGE]
         Fmaj9                      E7-9
     Yo, back in the days I used to listen to records
     Am11                             Am7/G       C
     Trying to figure out how I could make my own records
     Fmaj9                   E7-9
     Working in restaurants, busting on dishes
     Am11                        G           C
     Hoping that the man upstairs respect my wishes
     Fmaj9                     E7-9
     Cigarette lighters, Ardig wallets, I was selling them
     Am11   n.c.
    'Till I met the B.H. and bust down A Capella to him
Fmaj9                       E7-9
     He said you got talent and you're going places
         Am11                                G                  C
     I'd heard that line before but what the heck, I signed the papers
     Fmaj9                         E7-9
     Ever since that day I drew my head high it was on
         Am11                    G         C
     And now I'm mixing new music with the old school songs
