Superfly 1990 (Mantronix Remix Edit)

He's on a quest, at his best, it's no vex

Back on the track, bumping all of the new jacks

The '90s, a new game, it's time for a new change

But only if your name is Super Fly

Fallen times, 1990, I was super fly high

Breathing hard for a partner, I knew soon he would die

Blame the man, he planted the seed

And because of your greed, the weak and strong one had to feed

But it's fair, nowhere, taking Freeze, Dick, and Jane

As I spill all my guts, 'cause love, not the same

There are those who think I'm so Shaq

There are some who call me Super Fly

Thought the world was all against me

I had to leave just to be free

Took some time to make my body clean

And now I'm back on the street scene

Between a rock and a hard place

Still my past leaves a distaste

I know some don't wanna see me die

Super Fly gives a super try

Working hard for my self redeem

Don't you push, 'cause I can be mean

So you try to escape into your middle class

I know your ways of life and I can get your ass

I know the way you hide, I know your selfish way

I know your kind of trip, I know your time of day

Your ambitions, destructions, and your senseless laws

It's like two faces you are and it's going too far

Let's just say I've been born again

I wanna love and be a real friend

I'm gonna stand when I think I can

Conquer self and be a real man

You be careful doing things you do

Don't make people so afraid of you

You know, for freedom, you may have to fight

So that the world of love be alright

Super Fly, 1990, that's my title, my class

And I'm trouble for trouble and I'll knock you down fast

If you're aware of me, then be aware of the thief

Beware of times and what might be your belief

Beware of your friends who might just bring you grief

Beware of the substance that may give you sweet relief

There are those who think I'm so Shaq

And there are some who call me Super Fly

Thought the world was all against me

I had to leave just to be free

Took some time to make my body clean

Now I'm back on the street scene

Between a rock and a hard place

Still my past leaves a distaste

I'm working hard for myself to keep

Can't you see I gotta be me?

I know some don't wanna see me die

Super Fly gives a super try
