Park Lyrics by Wiki

It’s my corner after all
I mean it’s just one little part of the world but
Things take place there too just like everywhere else
That’s why I can never take a vacation
I gotta be in my spot every morning at the same time
Every morning in the same spot at the same time

Seward, Tompkins, Riverside
Jackie Robinson, Central
Marcus Garvey, Prospect, St. Nick’s
All of ’em
Brought a way to gain what I sought
A place to start my day off without pain in my heart
Caught in a sea of concrete what these streets are
I need to see some trees even if these trees sparse
That’s why I went to the park on a bench
Monument or on top of the rock entrenched in thought
Lounging, get a full walk
Dip in the fountain when it get too hot
Could be large like Prospect
Small like Columbus Park
Watch sports, future prospects at Rucker Park
Badminton with the Buddhist monks
Shit what you want
Might see a dime piece, bag it up
Or could just be bagging up dubs
Or all the above
There’s nothing more that I love
If any date asked what I planned for us
Or any interviewer asked what my hobby was
It was going to the park
Is that too obvious?
A little cut, escape from all the rush
Amongst the muck
Don’t matter what you make
What it say on your pay stub
You welcome to enter
As much as the ones with their name plates engraved on the benches
Incentive to not neglect it
Stay involved
But let’s make our way uptown
Change the pace for ’em
Downtown ain’t no hills or great lawns
It’s cooler up top
I could get used to the view that I got
Might plot
Go through all my thoughts
Or just sit
Sip this juice that I got
The OPM I almost forgot
It was only him when I first took this spot
And now it’s filled to the brim
Already four o’clock
Must’ve been here since ten on the dot
Take off the watch
Wouldn’t say the day’s lost
I’d say I couldn’t have prayed for
A more beautiful way to start this day off
Than just laying in the park
The park’s
Where I started my shift
Where I clocked in, clocked out
Or when I just slept on the bench
When I walked in, never walked out
It’s where I started my shift
Where I clocked in, clocked out
Or when I slept on the bench
When I walked in, never walked out
