"Ode to Ole School"
  by Pete Alma


Ode to the Ole’ School
By Peter Alma

*Please Play Track*

Epiphany sets in
grin breaks across my face
now I gotta win….

Been down too long
and just like my phone;
I’ve been on roam
but now I’m going home…

Anyway, let’s go back to hits
days I could not flip the sidekick
Um, no chick on the side
Me and homie ride
Only had two tires…

Damn, I was happier than
everybody dancing on “just a friend”
Polka dots were cool
Me and my partner had wear one another shoes…

Back when your neighbor’s party was the place to be
when Video Soul was on B.E.T.
Man, those days were cold
I had warm my socks up on the stove
Fist fights in the park
Momma screaming, “come home before it get dark”

Man, y’all know what I mean
I know how you felt when they cancelled “A-Team”
from B.A. to B.S.
let me ended it here, while we thank K. West
