DESCRIPTION:
A collaboration between Chuck Da Fonk Fishman and Richard Kush Griffith (James Brown, P-Funk, Bootsy, Brides of Funkenstein, Buddy Miles).

This track was produced in 2000 in Denver, Colorado at a recording studio me and my homeboys had uo and running at 5th and Acoma Streets. I wrote the track and kicked it over to Richard Kush Griffith, trumpeter / arranger for so many groups including the James Brown Band (The J.B.'s), Maceo and All The Kings Men, Parliament, Bootsy's Rubber Band, Brides of Funkenstein, Buddy Miles, Bottom & Co (Motown), and Marvin Gaye for his production touch. I appreciate KUSH's work on this song, and he is sorely missed.

LYRICS:

All of my life - been reaching for the cookies on top of the shelf
All of my life- Doing good things, but not for myself
All of my life - Looking for money, searching for cash
All of my life - Down on my luck, flat on my ass

That's how it is - you better watch me! (4x)

I know I come on strong, I know I will, just cause I can // You better watch me (4x)

While I'm still young, I've gotta see the rest of the world
While I'm still young, party a lot, with all off the girls
