[Verse 1: Futura 2000]
Futura is my name
And I say graffiti is where I got my fame
But it's not my fame that I'm here to claim
I wanna tell the real story about my game
Aw, yeah, this is just a little tune about graffiti
[Chorus: Futura 2000]
The idea is to let you know
That graffiti is rockin' and it's on the go
And there's a lot more to it if you check in to it
But the problem is you're probably lookin' right through it
[Verse 2: Futura 2000]
It started for me back in seventy-two
I really wasn't sure what I wanted to do
I saw names everywhere, style color, and flair
I knew I had to join in, I knew my answer was there
There was TAKI bein' tacky with his Dri Mark pen
He was writin' his name way back then
Frank 207, SJK (Aw, yeah)
COCO144 and the UGA, PHASE2, stay hot
Graffiti is a thing that's kinda hard to explain
It's not just runnin' around spray paintin' your name
It starts as a game, can't stay the same
Dedication makes you put it in a different frame
Joe 136 (To the beat)
And there were writers in the past who I bet if you asked
Would say graffiti cannot last
But they crossed that rail and they blazed that trail
And it's because of them that I won't fail (You know it)
You know they jumped that fence, they crossed that track
And it's because of them I can never be the wack (And you know that)
(To the beat)
