[Hook]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where we all smoke green and the girls are pretty
Even with no makeup on (No you don't need that makeup)
Take me back to the time and the place
Where the music still rocks and the people weren't fake
(People weren't fake)
Oh won't you please let me Ohh

[Verse 1]
Put in the time cuz' it's worth it
Back against the wall, playin' suey tennis balls can't murk em'
We Steve Urkel, we keep workin'
On what matters to the family, TGIF certain
Hurtin' but I'm never droppin' the ball
Opposite of Ed Reed but he's stoppin' em all
I deliver the goods, I keep dropping em off
Ain't been paid, still never talkin' a loss
Bob frost with the travels my roads stay dirty
Even if I whisper I know you still heard me
Truth resonates my words are Watergate
Put that shit on tape Woodward and Bernstein
Burned em with his own words against em'
Think before I speak turgid defence-man
Lurid with your words and its patently absurd
Hand up your ass your puppeteer's Jim Henson
I might be a grouch but I ain't no slouch
7 foot with a straight back fuck yo' couch
Rick James, spit flames, crazy like Brit-nay
I'm tryna keep my lid on Lucas can't get me
[Hook]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where we all smoke green and the girls are pretty
Even with no makeup on (Yeah cus you don't need that makeup)
Take me back to the time and the place
Where the music still rocks and the people weren't fake
Oh won't you please let me Ohh

[Verse 2]
Get a lump in my throat when I think of what could be
More specifically it's really what should be
Exude confidence, elude arrogance
Venn diagram's dead no comparisons
So jaded, but amazing like Aerosmith
My sweet emotions telling me to get a therapist
Already got one, her name is hip-hop
And I'ma love that bitch till' my heart stops
Hitchcock mystery, I'm tryna make some history
I want my kids to have a world that doesn't love misery
Already got the company it's black pais all day
My fan base drives me, you are why I'm on pace
Raise the bar, so high that it is humbling
I never liked limbo, reminded me of gumby
I'm dodging all the blockheads poking at my options
The song ain't even done but I'm thinkin' how to top this
[Hook]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where we all smoke green and the girls are pretty
Even with no makeup on (Yeah you don't need that makeup)
Take me back to the time and the place
Where the music still rocks and the people weren't fake
Oh won't you please let me Ohh (Let me oh)

[Hook]
Take me down to the Paradise City
Where we all smoke green and the girls are pretty
Even with no makeup on (Yeah cus you don't need that makeup)
Take me back to the time and the place
Where the music still rocks and the people weren't fake
Oh won't you please let me Ohh
(And just let me oh, let me oh)
