Story Behind the Song
half of the song was written in the 80"sthe 2nd half was re-written in 96 when I found out my friend was dieing,I wanted to give him a tape of the songs we sang together, and the songs we use to listen to back in the days growing up, and as the tapes were spread out,in front of me the second half of the song came to me,do you remember those days.

doing the hip hop a baby you dont stop a rapping to the bang bang boogie to be
remember Curtis blow couldnt get the breaks. (get higher baby)
and mels white lines were blowing us away.
and its like that with the games people play .
and you talk to much and thats all I'm going to say . (shut up)
there was rapping duke and super rhyme . (sup sup super rhyme)
and buffalo girls were going round the outside,
and the renegades of funk were on planet rock.
and inspector gadget was on the clock . ( this tape will self destruct)
what people do for money is a sin .
when you do the wild style . (do what)
you play at your own risk. ( play at play at your own risk)
Roxanne ,Roxanne I wanna be your man .
so walk this way and lead me into rapture . (just give me a kiss)
did you get the message to jam on it . (yea we know )
I said word up cause when the freaks come out at night ,you can plan on it
(you gotta fight for your right to party)
lets dance to the drummers beat(do you remember those days)
lets dance (oh man,how can you forget )
(Ill never forget )
(its like a jungle some times it make me wonder how I keep from going under)
(din da da do do do,din da da do do)
(cause its tough)
(sky's the limit you know you can have what you want be what you want)
(the funky beat)
(rock, rock, planet rock ,dont stop )
(set it off to the left yall)
(set it off I suggest yall)
(set it off,set it off)
