This groove is so serious, yeah
It's a strokin' thing, baby, oh yeah
It's a strokin' thing, oh baby
I never claimed to be an angel or a saint, no
I never claimed to be the devil 'cause I ain't, no no no
I never thought that I could even make it back
I visit hell sometimes and all I found was crack (lots of crack, baby)
I spent some time inside a penitentiary (fo' somethin')
And all I did was think and eat and watch
TV (some good cars and some good shit)
When I got out I did just what I had to do
Went in the studio and wrote some funk for you
I got up (I got up)
On a stroke (I was strokin', strokin', yeah baby yeah)
It was serious (serious, so serious)
It was no joke (oh no, yeah)
(Dance)
Groove ain't no joke, y'all
(Dance, come on)
(Walk)
(Dance your ass off)
And now I'm laying back and just taking my time
A little older but at least I'm doing fine
All of the young OG's I meet from day to day (the OG's)
Tell me how they grew up on music that I played
But what they just don't know is that
I'm still alive (I'm still alive)
A player's gonna play and only the strong survive (cause I'm groovin')
And if I had to take my life and write it down (what would you say?)
You'd see a man who lived his life on shaky ground (you know what?)
I got up (I got up)
On a stroke (I was strokin', strokin', yeah baby yeah)
It was serious (serious, so serious)
It was no joke (it wasn't no joke
It wasn't no joke, it wasn't no joke)
I got up (I got up)
And I ain't mad (I ain't mad about it)
I will be back again (I gonna be back again, baby)
And just as bad (just as bad, just as freaky bad, yeah)
Dance
Dance, motherfucker
I spent some time inside a penitentiary (doin' nothin')
And all I did was think and eat and watch TV (no, no, no)
When I got out I did just what I had to do (took care of my business)
Went in the studio and wrote some funk for you
I got up (I got up)
On a stroke (I was strokin', strokin', baby)
It was serious (serious, so serious)
It was no joke (it wasn't no joke
It wasn't no joke, it wasn't no joke)
I got up (I got up)
And I ain't mad (I ain't mad about it, oh no)
I will be back again (I'm gonna be back with you, baby)
And just as bad (just as bad, just as bad)
Get on up
On a stroke
Get on up
On a stroke
