Song lyrics

I was doing it when I was a colored boy of eight or nine, or ten,
I had never heard of Sigmund Freud but hell, I was doing it then!
I was doing it in my teenaged years when I was running the ghetto streets,
Now I had never seen me no ink blot test but it still felt good to me.
I was doing it when I arrived in college searching for my degree,
But Lord knows, a degree wasn't all I got, and that's the way it's supposed to be.
I hope that when I have kids of my own they really don't get shook
When I tell them that there are things they've got to learn that can't be found in books.
