My Name is Big D
I come to yo' home town...
To tell y'all here
That we be gettin' down...

Whether list'n, speakin', readin', writin',
Rappin' o' mo'...
The purpose of dis here gathrin'
Is to open the do'...

 

To otha people, they cultures
The things that they say...
Respect will always lead us
To a betta' day...

Yo' kids in French ... n' Spanish
Maybe ESL, too...
Italian, Latin, German
I know they come through...

By takin' risks
Yo, I know, that at times it is tough...
To teach anotha' language
Dog, you got to give it up...

So that they don't end up speakin'
A French up n' down...
Just conjugatin' verbs
When they ain't no one around...

Don't ever think they too old
They ain't smart enough...
Cause to learn anotha' language
G, it just ain't that tough...

A special thanks to you homies
For lendin' me yo' time...
Because of you my time right here
Done been so tight and fine...

So long for now cause it's time,
Dog, I got to be goin'...
Rememba' me
My name's Big D and just...

Picture me rollin'...
