Chocolate City
Uh, what's happenin, CC?
They still call it the White House, but that's a temporary condition too
Can you dig it, CC?
To each his reach and if I don't cop it ain't mine to have
But I'll be reachin for you cause I love you, CC
Right on
There's a lot of chocolate cities around
we got Newark, we got Gary
Somebody told me we got LA
And we workin on Atlanta
But you're the capital
Gainin on ya
Get back

Movin in on ya
Gainin on ya
Can't you feel my breath
Gainin on ya
All up around your neck
Hey, CC, they say you jive and game and can't be changed
But on the positive side, you're my piece of the rock and I love you CC
Can you dig it?
Hey, uh, we didn't get our 40 acres and a mule
But we did get you, CC

The last percentage count was 80
You don't need the bullet when you got the ballot
Are you up for the down stroke, CC?
Chocolate city

And when they come to march on ya
Tell em to make sure they got their James Brown pass
And don't be surprised if Ali is in the White House
Reverend Ike, Secretary of the Treasure
Richard Pryor, Minister of Education
Stevie Wonder, Secretary of Fine Arts
and Miss Aretha Franklin, First Lady
Are you out there, CC?
Chocolate City is no dream, it's my piece of the rock
And I dig you, CC
