Young man keep skating 'till the lights get dark
Have Don Cherry saying that he like your art
And be the reason all the younger kids try your sport (Ahhh)
Now where you going younging
Your friends missing you a bit you always in to something
Used to play the monkey bars
and now you missing summer
And coming back for the season like 20 pounds up
Telling em you're working it from the ground up
Short circuting your competition every round up
See I know something about it just turn the sound up
Building a mountain you lose count so if you down one
You a champion use it and lock it down
'Cause nobody thought that you would prove it, your time is now
And forever and a day your family will pray
That you're doing what you want
Make em believe make em say I
Am part of the he say she say Mary
red blue black white like I'm P.K
And if you didn't see the process

Say I (feat. OB O'Brien) Lyrics

I can do what I wanna
And make you a believer hear you say I
From stadium to street corner
I'll make you a beliver make you say I
And I can do what I wanna (I)
And I can do what I wanna (I)
And I can do what I wanna (I)
Make you a believer hear you say I
That little kid get a pass
He do it on the field and he doing it in class
See his homeroom teacher always put him on blast
Sayin hard work will pay off lay off ain't an option
So he watched him, never easy
Need a variety increase in this theseus
Lose one turn the clock back you can beat this
Cause you ain't never got nothing by sitting on your keister
Please sir, I want more, Oliver Twist on Broadway, softmore
Follow your dreams tell this story when you off tour
An odd thought, blast off
They tell you white man can't rap white man can't jump
Black man can't be president or shoot no puck
You take all them stereotypes and rip that up
And this the song they gonna play when you win that cup
Je m'appelle OB comment t'appelle tu
Funny Coloured Money thats my label thats my crew
I been grinding for a minute baby this ain't nothing new
Up north we call it skating leave the hating up to you
Shout P.K., what up P.K
He played in Hamilton I know he know where we stay
Now he with the Habs critiques tryna say bad
All I see a lotta "O" lotta "D" lotta swag
Grown man gon' ice that park
Young man keep skating 'till the lights get dark
Have Don Cherry saying that he like your art
And be the reason all the younger kids try your sport (Ahhh)
Now where you going younging
Your friends missing you a bit you always in to something
Used to play the monkey bars
and now you missing summer
And coming back for the season like 20 pounds up
Telling em you're working it from the ground up
Short circuting your competition every round up
See I know something about it just turn the sound up
Building a mountain you lose count so if you down one
You a champion use it and lock it down
'Cause nobody thought that you would prove it, your time is now
And forever and a day your family will pray
That you're doing what you want
Make em believe make em say I
Am part of the he say she say Mary
red blue black white like I'm P.K
And if you didn't see the process
Take a picture treat me like the Lochness

Saukrates aka Big Sox (born Amani Wailoo on December 20, 1977 in Toronto, Ontario), is a Canadian Hip-Hop artist/producer. He is widely considered to be one of the most skilled MC's from Canada. He is also part of Capitol Hill Music, and frontman of the five-man hip hop group Big Black Lincoln.

In 1994, his first track was titled "Still Caught Up", which earned a nomination for Best Rap Recording at the 1996 Juno Awards. He was also nominated for another Juno of the same award in 2000 for "Money Or Love". In 2001, Saukrates produced the track "Uh-Huh" for Redman's Malpractice album, and appeared on a track called "Enjoy Da Ride". He also did a track called "Fine Line" for the soundtrack to Method Man and Redman's How High movie. In 2002, Saukrates teamed up with fellow Canadian producer Agile from BrassMunk to produce the track "Heaven" for Nas' God's Son and it featured Jully Black.

Canadian hip hop artists have had a hard time getting established south of the border, and Saukrates is no exception. In 1996, he was signed to Warner Bros. Records. Unfortunately for Saukrates, Warner dropped him in 1998, which was one year before his debut album The Underground Tapes was released to critical acclaim. By the year 2000, Saukrates reached another big deal with Def Jam and Gilla House Records (owned by Redman). Eventually, Saukrates was dropped by Def Jam because he was no longer considered a priority, however he remained with Gilla House. As of 2006, Saukrates is still looking to sign with a major record label.

On November 19, 2006, he performed "Promiscuous" with Nelly Furtado at halftime show of the 94th Grey Cup (the CFL championship game). Two days later, Saukrates beat-boxed during her performance of "Say It Right" at the 2006 American Music Awards in Los Angeles. On February 23, 2007, he appeared on the daytime drama One Life to Live with Nelly Furtado, performing "Promiscuous". Saukrates is also touring with Nelly Furtado on her Get Loose Tour, singing as a backing vocalist and supporting act.

Saukrates appears on two tracks of Redman's new album Red Gone Wild, released March 2007. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
