Message to the Young

Alphonso “Sonny” Thompson, Ralph Bass

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I got something I wanna tell all the young peoples
I got a message for you
I just thought that I would take my time
And rap what you thought of me

[Verse 2]
There's a lot of things I wanna say
But I won't be able to say all
But I can say a little bit
I wan't you to know
This comes from the bottom of my heart

[Verse 3]
There's so much confusion
Misunderstanding
Just plain bad rapping
A whole lot of bad rapping is going on
But I want you to keep faith
Believe in yourself
And believe in your leaders
Keep this in mind
Be an old woman
And be an old man

[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
I got something I wanna tell you
A lot of people going around
Talking about people with long hair
But if you wanna wear your hair long
Wear your hair long
If you wanna wear your beard
Wear your beard
You wanna mustache
Wear it
Not only that
Wearing the kind of clothes you wanna wear

[Interlude]

[Verse 5]
I got something else I wanna tell you
You good
You wanna wear your dresses short
Go on and wear your dresses short
I'll appreciate it if no one else dont

[Interlude]

[Verse 6]
Now I got somthing else I wanna tell you
Now did, now dig this
So much confusion is going around
I know you confused
But remember this
I'm with you

[Interlude]

[Verse 7]
Sometimes you feel lonely
And dont know where to go
Thats why i sing the blues
Everybody know what im talking about

[Interlude]

[Verse 8]
I feel that way sometimes myself
I've been playing blues for a long time
Thats why i sing the blues
Sometimes I just like to moan
So when I moan you know what I'm talking about

[Interlude]

[Verse 9]
Yous see what I'm saying
You have to think about what I'm saying
Tell yourself
So know you be sweet till we meet again
Keep on loving yourself everybody
Love your mother and father
And thanks for letting me talk to you
You see what Im saying

[Outro]
