Anything goes The world has gone mad today And good’s bad today And day’s night today And black’s white today And most guys today that women prize today Are just silly gigolos In olden days a glimpse of stocking Was looked on as something shocking

Just like I told you, if I'm lyin' then I'm flyin' I can't let these niggas knock me off my pivot God sat me down and talked to me, I listened I was in that cell, he told me that I’m gifted I don't make it in the booth, then I'ma make it in the kitchen

That was us Yeah, here's to us I got my mail today, Just the kind that miss us A bunch of bills I can't pay, I guess their shit outta luck But there was one from an old friend, Brought back memories Black and white from way back when

When I was younger You told me I should get my shit together You said life is a painting I told myself that I don't care I found some new innovations Might just be my imagination It might've been just a dream People can dream But all your colors always

Remind me, remind me Yeah you'd wake up in my old t-shirt We didn't care if people stared We'd make out in a crowd somewhere Somebody'd tell us to get a room It's hard to believe that was me and you Now we keep saying that we're OK But I don't want to

Holding on, laughing and crying I'm finding my way back home Laying in a bed that was burning It's so hard when you're young and in love Trying, and fighting 'Cause that's what you do when you're young and in love Young and in love I'm coming to see you

But I'd rather be broke down with you by my side I said without you I was broken Without you I was broken So without you I was broken With everything ahead of us we left, everything behind But nothing that we needed at least Not at this time And I,

What's owed will be repaid Has come to wash our shame away To erase the image of defeat Have licked our wounds, restored our strength And our vengeance will be oh so sweet They thought they had us down That we'd never rise again

Like that was your favorite year? We were young and so inspired We weren't the only ones who thought We'd change the world No sun would set without us No one we knew could ever doubt us We had our future figured out We knew a love like ours would always

To even the toughest among us That would be too much Coming from where he did He was turned away from every door like Joseph He didn´t know what it was to be black ´Til they gave him his change But didn´t want to touch his hand Isn´t it just enough How
