Throughout Your Years

William Waring, J.B. Moore, Kurtis Blow

Throughout your years, your ups and downs
Your highs and your lows
I'm the man with the mic who rocks the house
The man called Kurtis Blow

So get out your seat and grab a girl
Because I'm about ready to rock the world
And listen to my story because it got to be told
Like an Oscar-winning actor when he is playing a role

When I wasn't the best, there was something in my head
To be a rapper was my dream
Like in the morning with the bacon and the eggs
And the coffee and the cream

So I made up my mind that I would always try to be
The best that I can be
Now here I am rapping at the jam
With the all the fly guys and the young ladies

Just take your time, you don't have to hurry
Hang tough, you don't have to worry
In society, the strong survive
So rap a single or get a nine to five

With a little hard work and dedication
We'll pull together and rock the nation
So if you do the do and think you are great
Come on, everybody, participate

Say "ho"
You gotta to say "ho" if you are ready to go
Say "ow"
You gotta to say "ow" if you are ready right now
Say pride
'Cause pride is what we got inside
To the top!
We are going to the top, we ain't going to stop!
Get down!

When it started out, the way wasn't clear
There was much confusion and a lot of fear
Walking in the shadow, searching for the light
Be the reason I could be that to make me right

'Cause it ain't all champagne and caviar
Riding around the town in the finest car
Living in the star life of luxury
And being seen around the world at the place to be

Look down, ?? handshakes
[??]
A thousand things can hold you back
And try to run you off the track

So you got to believe you can be the best
You got to work real hard to achieve success
So listen close 'cause I insist
I got some advice, it goes just like this

Take your time, you don't have to hurry
Hang tough, you don't have to worry
In society, the strong survive
So rap a single or get a nine to five

With a little hard work and dedication
We'll pull together and rock the nation
So if you do the do and think you are great
Come on, everybody, and participate

Say "Ho"!
You gotta to say "ho" if you're ready to go
Say "ow"!
You gotta to say "ow" if you're ready right now
Say "pride"!
Cause pride is what we got inside
Say top!
We're goin' to the top, we ain't gonna stop
Get down!

There is a man up there who's calling the shots
He says what is gonna happen and what's not
There is only one way to stake a claim
You got to be a man, you got to play the game

Some people you may be around
Have negative vibes and try to get you down
But you're mighty sound and you're really strong
You got to make or right a wrong

Winter, summer, fall, spring
Give it your all and everything
Step by step, day by day
Watch out for obstacles in your way

Don't be no other, be yourself
You can do that better than anyone else
Now, I can't tell you what to do
But the things I say still come true

Take your time, you don't have to hurry
Hang tough, you don't have to worry
In society, the strong survive
So rap a single or get a nine to five

With a little hard work and dedication
We'll pull together and rock the nation
So if you do the do and think you are great
Come on, everybody, participate

Say nahnahnahnah
Say nahnahnahnah

Nahnahnahnah
Nahnahnahnah
Nahnah
Nahnah

Nahnahnahnah OW!
