[Intro: Chubb]

Hehehe

Yeah

Come!


[?]

Let's go


[?]


[Verse 1: K'naan]

Bundle up, my whole style is so cold

I glow like old guys who go bald

My flow got no front in the vocal

Your flow got no button, it's so old

I don't mean to sound like a showboat

But it's true my persona's no joke

I stepped into some kinda portal

I'm legend and sometimes I'm noble

I'm from the most risky zone, oh

No place is more shifty global

More pistols, Russian revolvers

We shootin' all that is normal

But it ain't just because we want to

We ain't got nowhere we can run to

Somebody please press the undo

They only teach us the things that guns do


[Hook: K'naan & Rayzak]

They don't teach us the ABC's

We play on the hard concrete

All we got is life on the streets

All we got is life on the streets

They don't teach us the ABC's

We play on the hard concrete

All we got is life on the streets

All we got is life on the streets


[Verse 2: Chubb Rock]

Rock, you know my era

B-boy seasoning, Salt-N-Pepa

Grown and sexy, come with the extra

Crushed-up linen, fly like Cessna

This type-groove, I gave it birth

Now, it's time again to give it a verse

Jamaican born, not a fan of the ganja

Boulevard, Brooklyn to Somalia

And it goes in the background

Playa, that is my sound

The green doesn't symbolize, I made it on the top

Pioneer, legend, and they call me Mr. Rock

No B-word or N-word, I don't need those words

Respect for hers

The game dried up, so we come with the grease

Leading you right and treating you right, so, peace!


[Hook: K'naan & Rayzak]

They don't teach us the ABC's

We play on the hard concrete

All we got is life on the streets

All we got is life on the streets

They don't teach us the ABC's

We play on the hard concrete

All we got is life on the streets

All we got is life on the streets


[Verse 3: K'naan]

Superman I'm known by the locals

As this dude who's so fly it's global

Attitude that came outta struggle

Destitute but I make it hopeful

You real but my real is tenfold

My real will make yours a rental

Gangsta if it is, essential

Fight with guns or utensils

So bold, nothing's confidential

Breakfast was not continental

And lunch could not compliment all

We still become competent souls

These streets ain't paved with no gold

Matter fact, someone stole the light pole

Nobody fat enough for lipo

They don't teach us to read and write, so


[Hook: K'naan & Rayzak]

They don't teach us the ABC's

We play on the hard concrete

All we got is life on the streets

All we got is life on the streets

They don't teach us the ABC's

We play on the hard concrete

All we got is life on the streets

All we got is life on the streets
