Malik, what are you gonna do with your life?Are you gonna stand on the corner?Are you gonna sit around with your friends?You wanna wear new sneakers, you wanna have nice clothesHow `bout gettin a job?How `bout finishin school?How `bout gettin your life together?Don`t you wanna prosper, don`t you wanna be somebody?[ *last sentence is in a foreign language - suggestions appreciated* ][ VERSE 1: Phife ]11-20-70, who would have knownThat premature born will be grabbin microphones?
