Lyrics:
Positivity yes
Have U had your plus sign 2day?
Positivity yes
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

Is that a good man
Walking down that street with that money in his hand
Is that a good man?
Why do U dog him
If that was yo father, tell me, would U dog him then
Would U dog him?

Positivity yes
Have U had your plus sign 2day?
Positivity yes
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

Is that all Ur gold?
Where did it come from? What did U have 2 do? (did U have 2 do)
Can U sleep nights?
Do U dream straight up or do U dream in W's?

Positivity yes
Have U had your plus sign 2day?
Positivity yes
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

Na na na na na na, so slow
Positivity yes
Na na na na na na, so slow

Can a boy who drops out at school
At thirteen years of age
Answer the 2 of life and death
When it slaps him in the face?
Who's 2 blame when he's got no place 2 go
And all he's got is the sense 2 know
That a life of crime'll help him beat U in the race
Help him beat U in the race (Help him beat U in the race) 
Positivity

Positivity yes
Have U had your plus sign 2day?
Positivity yes
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

Na na na na na na, so slow (na na na na na na, so slow)

Positivity yes
Have you had your plus sign to day?
Positivity yes
Do we mark you present, or do we mark you late?

Na na na na na na, so slow (say it again na na na na na na, so slow)
Positivity yes
Na na na na na na, so slow

Wave your hands 4 positivity y'all!
All the boys and all the girls (All the boys and all the girls)
U are the new kings of the world!
Shall the court sing 2gether

"In every man's life there will be a hang-up
A whirlwind designed 2 slow U down
It cuts like a knife and tries 2 get in U
This Spooky Electric sound
Give up if U want 2 and all is lost
Spooky Electric will be your boss"

Call People magazine, Rolling Stone
Call your next of kin, 'cause your ass is gone
He's got a 57 mag with the price tag still on the side
Cuzzin' when Spooky say dead, U better say died
Or U can fly high right by Spooky and all that he crawls 4
Spooky and all that he crawls 4

Don't kiss the beast
We need love and honesty, peace & harmony
Positivity
Love and honesty, peace and harmony
I said, hold on 2 your soul, U got a long way 2 go

Sho' nuff, sho' nuff, sho' nuff

Don't kiss the beast
Be superior at least

Hold on 2 your soul, y'all, court, sing
Hold on 2 your soul, we got a long way 2 go
Hold on 2 your soul
