Lyrics:

Look at what we did
Came a long way from Dirty Ghetto Kids, uh, yeah
Look at what we did
Came a long way from Dirty Ghetto Kids, yeah
You know what it is, haha
Uh, uh, come on

Well the cops didn't fine 'em for grindin', no
They kinda blew the vibe, figured it was time to go
Plus he had to be at home a long time ago
And he had made like ten dollars off the sign he wrote
It read, 'A little hungry and need a little money
It's for my little sister and her little tummy'
Wasn't lyin' though, he didn't go buy hydro
Went to the restaurant and bought two gyros
'Cause he knew they wasn't cooking where he lived
The kunk-kakunk-kakunks now took him to the crib
A little hurt from the rail he took into the ribs
Right past the pushers who couldn't underdig
'What's the use of pushin'? You ain't pushin' none of this'
If I kick it with y'all, I'm just pushin' for a bid
But what was on his mind had pushed him to the lid
Their best customer wasn't cookin' for her kids, yes sir

Gets up to pump so he kick, push
Over his shoulders he swore he'd never look
'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness
Life wasn't too attractive

Yeah, uh, and so he kick, push
Over his shoulders he swore he'd never look
'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness
Life wasn't too attractive, yeah

You see his mom was a crackhead
And his father couldn't be contacted
He lived with being different, was combated
Amongst the other things on his young black head
And see his girl was a white girl
But, just cause she was white, see her life wasn't light-world
She too had the drama thick
Had a daddy and a mama but her daddy used to mama hit
Daddy caught something, chasing fatties made her mama sick
Couldn't afford the medicine, pimped it to the pharmacist
As suicidal feelings would rise, switch over to transitions helped her conquer it
Pays for her mama's pills with a sponsorship
A cell phone bill and a Honda kit, uh-huh
And that's why she skates with he
Someone to feel her pain and her place to be

That's why, that's why, that's why she kick, push
Over her shoulders she swore she'd never look
'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness
Life wasn't too attractive

Yeah, uh, that's why she kick, push
Over his shoulders she swore she'd never look
'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness
Life wasn't too attractive, yeah

A traveling band of misfits and outcasts
Knock their heads from Misfits to Outkast
A lot of scars, they did this without pads
A lot of hearts who did this without dads
One's father was filthy rich
Two was middle class and one was homeless
Add in a paralyzed girl in a wheelchair
Who just liked to watch it, that was the whole clique
I think about it everytime I see this old flick
That was taken in the park in front of this old bench
They wrote on the back, 'You thank for push, kick
Hope you make a video, the beat is so sick'
Well, I did, I hope you seen it
It's on MTV, Soundtrakk's a genius
Love from Tony Hawk, beef from the Ice Creamaz
Before we out it, had to pay the Filipinas

Just to show 'em how you kick, push
Over your shoulders you swore you'd never look
'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness
Life wasn't too attractive

Yeah, uh, that's why you kick, push
Over your shoulders you swore you'd never look
'Cause wasn't nothin' back there but the blackness
Life wasn't too attractive, yeah
