You know what I'm talkin' 'bout?

So, check it out, uh

First got it when he was six

Didn't know any tricks

Matter fact, first time he got on it he slipped

Landed on his hip and bust his lip

For a week he had to talk with a lisp

Like thiss

Now we can end the story right here

But shorty didn't quit, it was somethin' in the air

Yeah, he said it was somethin' so appealing

He couldn't fight the feelin'

Somethin' about it

He knew he couldn't doubt it

Couldn't understand it

Brand it, since the first kickflip he land it

Uh, labeled a misfit, abandoned

Ca-kunk, ca-kunk, ca-kunk

His neighbors couldn't stand it, so

He was banished to the park

Started in the morning wouldn't stop till after dark

Yeah, when they said it's gettin late in here

?So I'm sorry young man there's no skating here"

And so we kick push, kick push

Kick push, kick push, coast

So let's kick, uh, and push, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah, and coast

Uh, uh ,uh

My man got a lil older, became a better roller

Yeah, no helmet, hellbent on killin' himself

Is was what his momma said

But he was feelin' himself

Got a little more swagger in his style

Met his girlfriend, she was clappin' in the crowd

Love is what what was happening to him now, uh

He said, ?I would marry you

But I'm engaged to these aerials and varials?

?And I don't think this board is strong enough to carry two?

She said, ?Bow, I weigh 120 pounds, now

Lemme make one thing clear

I dont need to ride yours I got mine right here?

So she took him to a spot

He didn't know about

Somewhere in the apartment parking lot, she said

?I don't normally take dates in here?

Security came and said, "I'm sorry there's no skating here"

And so they kick push, kick push

Kick push, kick push, coast

Before he knew he had a crew

That weren't no punk

In they Spitfire shirts and SB Dunks

They would push, till they couldn't skate no more

Office building, li-b's wasn't safe no more

And it wasn't like they wasn't getting chased no more

Just the freedom was better than breathing they said

And they escape route, they used to escape out

When things got crazy they needed to break out

They'd head to any place with stairs

Any good grinds, the world was theirs, uh

And they four wheels would take them there

Till the cops came and said, "There's no skating here"

And so they kick push, kick push

Kick push, kick push, coast
