i run the red line from Grosvenor to Silver Spring
you know me by the name of Cool "Disco" Dan
know me by the name of grafiiti artist supreme
doors open on your left: Cool "Disco" Dan
endstation to endstation you know me at the writers bench
doors open on your right: Cool "Disco" Dan
mother and father ran the red line may '68 straight up the ladder

this time homeboy got away next time they might take a mugshot
this miserable subculture - urban undergrowth

boogie down with the welfare state
dont be late put your money on a plate
i cant afford the lifestyle that i shaped
throw your hands in the air pay for my mistake

this generation: not capable of a revolution or a stand.
anybody ready? raise your hand.
