Fm G
As I'm strolling down the block with really nothing on my mind
Cm
Laid back and I'm just thinking of old times
Fm G
Pop in a Isley Brothers tape and I'm maxing
Cm
Peeping through my side view, checking out my waxing
Fm G
Hey, I gotta say
Cm
Today's a good day for me to live around the way (ho)
Fm G
Time to hit the 6-4
Cm
And pump the bass at 'em just to let 'em know
Fm G
Aaliyah's in the house, so I think you'd better check my flow
Cm
Hello, hello
Fm G
I'm the young nation and young nation is me
Cm
So here we go, from the 1 the 2 and 2 the 3
[Kembali ke Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Fm G
I check my cellular because my beeper's beeping
Cm
Booty calls are creeping, fellas on the corner peeping
Fm G
Me (wassup); time to set it off
Cm
And so I pick up my girls and hit the strip just because
Fm G
Jazz array hey, it's Saturday and
Cm
The sun is blazing, it's so amazing
Fm G
And if you are a YNP
Cm
And you're rolling with the BGE Congratulations
Fm G
I know I got the skills to make you trip
Cm
R Kelly's flipping tracks, so grab a hold and don't you slip
Fm G
The negative young nation that steps to me gets dealt with
Cm
So raise your hands if you're sure
Fm
Are you a young nation?
[Kembali ke Chorus]

Fm G
Well, 6 o' clock rolls around and now I'm stepping
Cm
Stop to get some dressing, to the mall I'm flexing
Fm G
You know to get them funky croaka-sacks
Cm
Tonight I'm hitting the town, ain't holding nothing back
Fm G
Hey, well alright
Cm
Tonight is the night
Fm G
Well I'm in the mood for celebration
Cm
Or even some jazzy conversation
Fm G
Hey, it's okay
Cm
Here I come, so make way
Fm G
I'm the young nation and young nation is me
Cm
So here we go from the 1 the 2 and 2 the 3
