This is a message - yeah
To all you jheri curl, cats - SOLAR - yknahmsayin?
You Chic kids, seventy-four n***as, SEVENTY-FOUR n***as
f** that I remember them n***as with jheri curls
Nobody's hardcore n***as who souped up ready for the world
Babyface in the deal, I keep sh** real
Activator spray, you know how that sh** feel
Only SOLAR Records was signin n***as with curls
And givin Afro Sheen n***as a deal
Aluminum foil suits, you n***as know your roots
Like undisputed truth, lakeside, music n***as, Zapp clap n***as
I referee, watch them fight backpack n***as
Big groups like Heatwave and War, carryin all that sh**
Amp and costume sh**s on tour
[Hook]
Wake up! .. The sun's in your face
The sun in your face
Wake up! .. The sun's in your face
The sun's in your face face face face..
Wake up! .. The sun's in your face
The sun's in your face
Stoney Jackson!

f** you liar, tryin to come like you Earth Wind & Fire
Sly Stone picture with a DJ and a Numark mixer
n***as on Julius Earving dick, use a 76er fake Sir Nose
Larry Blackman was dissin rap with Cameo
I had my Lee dungarees on, and my right arm pickin my afro
Slave was my n***as, I bought ten cans of gel activator
When Atlantic Starr was payin no mind to me in the front row
I wasn't fu*kIN with the Isley Brothers, the Gap Band
On stage all them shiny motherf**ers like Clear and Pure Energy
More jheri curl n***as flyin into LaGuardia and Kennedy
I'm before rap, fu*k YOU, I'm the Public Enemy
Madison Square Garden security can't get with me
Don't bother me, motherf**er I'm busy!

This is my land, f** K-Ci and the Sunshine Band
Wack-a** leather gear with them metal chemicals around your hand
Parliament/Funkadelic
Two n***as comin out with that same sh** like Bootsy
You ain't a true n***a
Alexander O'Neal perm type sh** on your Ampex reel
Jimmy Jim and Terry Lewis production
Got Morris Day on the SSL board
With f**ed up beats that need reconstruction
Vest on the cover of Jet with liposuction
Jheri curl n***as like The Time got f**ed up on their publishin
From TKO to Con-Funk-Shun, the Jet album was hot
The Family sh** was bumpin
f** what you thought Stoney Jackson you was somethin!
