Let me take you up the avenue
A piano plays, it's always in tune
Grab an apple from the trees that we grew
Be careful of the eyes on us
Colorful houses, all along the way
Vegetation so fresh and everything's homemade
Anywhere we go, we'll always be safe
Them elders got their eyes on us
Our parents do everything they were meant to do
You might get a blessin' too
They'll do anything for you
It's easy to sacrifice
We had to all our lives
All the things we learned show through
On the faces of the avenue
It's easy to sacrifice
We had to all our lives
All the things we learned show through
Walkin' up the avenue with you
Our fathers love to use their hands
While our mothers grow the food on our land
I'm reminded of the love that we shared
We always had them eyes on you and me
Our parents do everything they were meant to do
You might get a plate of food
They'll do anything for you
It's easy to sacrifice
We had to all our lives (we had to all our lives)
All of the things we learn show through
Walkin' up the avenue with you
My family has lived here for at least four generations
I'd like to share the surnames of other families, patriarchs, and matriarchs
That I can remember
Bauld, Tolliver, Brown, James
Bundy, Drummond, Fowler, Samuels
Cromwell, Lucas, Adams, Bennett
Tynes, Wise, Claybourn, Bernard
Mills, Clyke, Shepherd, and Bowles
It's easy to sacrifice, we had to all our lives
All of the these things we learned show through
On the faces of the avenue
It's easy to sacrifice, we had to all our lives
All the things we learned show through
Walkin' up the avenue
Walkin' up the avenue with you
