Great song. Reminds me of that scene in BoyzNThaHood where Larry Fishburne turns the volume up in his car.
" I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?"

I love how musicians in the 70s, like the Five Stairsteps and Curtis Mayfield, would write such optimistic, uplifting songs despite all the hardships that were still there in the 70s. That is totally lacking in today´s music, which is often ego-driven and dark and pessimistic.In the 70s, people sung about the bright side AND the dark side of life.
