Our City |
| I grew up in a city |
| Where they never gave a pity or a fuck |
| Unless you’re doing grime or UK hip hop |
| Shit, I guess you’ll never buss |
| But I was thinking different |
| Wasn’t off the acid but I always had a vision |
| How I saw the USA was up for acquisition |
| So I got a pen and pad and jotted down my proposition, uh |
| The British Coming |
| We did it on our own, no help, no nothing |
| And as far as pulling through for my city |
| Well, I guess it got me feeling like a plunger |
| Uh, I wonder if they love me or they hate |
| Cause of what I’m wearing instead of digesting what I’m saying |
| The internet, it has a way to make me look good |
| And my Instagram is looking like a look book |
| But why the fuck I got more followers on that than on my SoundCloud? |
| Shit is scary, man, it’s making Suge shook |
| So I’mma keep my lyrics so clean not even 7 maids will find a speckle of dirt |
| in between |
| And have the elders playing this shit to their teens and tell em this what hip |
| hop needs |
| Bright lights in my city, I’m dark knight |
| Off a xanee cause I got long flight |
| I told my baby girl I gotta save the city |
| Cause within my city, man, they call me dark knight |
| I’m the dark knight of my city |
| Catch me on the block all night |
| And I ain’t worried bout my sinners |
| They be riding with me till I die |
| They see me rollin in the streets |
| So they know it’s alright |
| Yeah, I’m the dark knight of my city |
| Catch me on the block all night, on the block all night |
| This rapping shit, I do it for my city’s sake |
| And I should be a stylist how I changed the game |
| Me and the music, we kinda integrate |
| I drop a couple bars and rappers then disintegrate |
| Lyrically, I’m punching in a different weight |
| And fuck the other-side, I serve em like a dinner plate |
| Anyway, let me continue what I was chatting bout |
| I had a dream to make it overseas |
| I called my brother Jesse, got my clothes |
| And got my bags and started packing now |
| He told me it would be alright, I listened |
| Fast forward a couple months and they still doubting |
| So many ups and downs I feel like I just climbed a mountain |
| I find it funny how I had a fanbase in the US |
| Before my own people finding out about me |
| I guess it bothered me but I just kept writing |
| Little do my city know I’m tryna make em shine |
| For longer than a second like some lightning |
| It’s freighting, the scene up in my city need a viking |
| To cross the seas and hold the torch up and till it’s dying, it’s quiet |
| Uh, yeah I swear it’s fucking quiet |
| So now I got the labels offering |
| My heart is saying no, my wallet saying let em in |
| Then I play my tapes, and they saying «where's the hits?» |
| And if I hear that one more time I swear to gosh I’m gonna be sick |
| They tell me justify the music |
| Tell me what you see |
| I tell em this what hip hop needs |
| Bright lights in my city, I’m dark knight |
| Off a xanee cause I got long flight |
| I told my baby girl I gotta save the city |
| Cause within my city, man, they call me dark knight |
