| People die in, ride by in
|
| People cry in, everyday
|
| In my city, my city, in my city
|
| People die in, ride by in
|
| People cry in, everyday
|
| In my city, my city, in my city
|
| They hustle, they grind and they chussle
|
| They struggle, they fight
|
| They muscle they way to the top
|
| No sobbin, no crying
|
| They put they fire in the poest
|
| And flowin they rhymin
|
| They writing, they focused
|
| They know that they glowing, they shining
|
| Sub doping, they open, they loaking, they smokin
|
| They dranking
|
| They hope to be sanging the ball
|
| And that’s all that you think?
|
| They ripin off your chain they trippin and creepin
|
| They banging
|
| They throwing up flames, dippin, they flippin, they slangin
|
| They claimin blocks that they don’t own and die for em
|
| They taking shots enduring pain so we writing for em
|
| To make em stop for a second cause everyone hurt
|
| If I can give them a record, I’d give them one verse
|
| I try to inspire, they survivin, not living
|
| You can’t make a prediction, the future’s not written
|
| Although I’m not a physician I try to stop and listen
|
| It’s like we got a condition
|
| I’m from the city where the babies killin babies
|
| And the babies havin
|
| Babies
|
| Ain’t no ifs, ands and maybes
|
| All the pastors is crazy
|
| The baby mama’s lazy
|
| The congregation seem like they suffering from constipation
|
| And since female seem like they on a slow shit
|
| Niggas from my hood holler, we ain’t bout that ho shit
|
| Soon as the beef jump off, mix with they Glock up
|
| Then ride around rock windows and hoops and tear your block off
|
| It’s where the youngest practice prostitution
|
| And where niggas don’t give a fuck about the constitution
|
| They say abe lincoln freed the slaves
|
| But honestly homie we still slaves
|
| And we don’t behave
|
| Ever since katrina, my niggas ain’t got sense
|
| And they ain’t got funs, but they all got guns
|
| What’s up america get back in the hood
|
| You motherfuckers put crack in the hood, that’s why
|
| For you to call me a street nigga it’s just an accusation
|
| You’re probably calculating, the fact I be with them workers
|
| Without the application
|
| Making money in the city I’m from, from grinding
|
| Until they get us tired it’s after racism
|
| Our actions is affirmative, come get the affirmation
|
| With our minds we can move mountains like the appalachians
|
| Victims, of circumstance not stopping until the whole block flooded like urkle
|
| pants
|
| Niggas will creep up to squeeze on you with the violence
|
| Everyday in they life like mileage
|
| So they go out in the streets smart despite college
|
| The wrong mind frame with the right wallet
|
| You are listening to the heart of the city
|
| I’m part of the greediest place you can visit
|
| Niggas even fill the may up, spray up
|
| Then go somewhere way up till the way up
|
| A bunch of slum dog millionaires, yeah yeah |
