[Hook]
It's been a long time since the city that I live in seen the top
But I promise I'ma show it to 'em
I got the grind and what it takes to get us back up in the mix
I'm trynna build my roster like the Chi in '96
It's been a, long, time, since the city that I live in seen the top
But I promise I'ma show it to 'em
I'm feeling like I owe it to 'em
[Verse 1]
It's still the same city where they always glad to see me
Rawlin$ bringing change they tired of losing every season
Got some homies with some charges leaving major repercussions
So don't ever say I do this for no reason cause that's crazy
A couple demons I've been dealing with
On days when I'm not dealing with this angel trynna save me
I'm just, I'm the one y'all haven't heard of as of yet
But that's about to change 'soon as the label cut the check
Got a label on my sh** cause the sh** I say upset 'em
But I can tell you now that that won't have any effect
And now everybody want a verse I wonder should I let 'em
Or are they just trynna get it cause they see the boy's success?
These all pressing issues once your name starts getting press
Not a worry in the world, just a little bit of pressure
When its hits that they expect and nothing less
[Hook x3]
[Verse 2]
It's still the same boy from Grove Park cause that's where the flow started
Never really there now but that's always where my heart is
I show love, I always show love
Cause that's my home so I'ma rep that sh** regardless
I been trynna tell 'em I'm the truth I never missed
And if y'all don't hurry up then y'all probably gon' miss it
This is me just handling business, not a plan for your man
But know that the kid's on a mission, and I ain't planning on missing
Panorama the camera so you can fit my whole clique in
Damn this sh**'s clicking, I'm like damn this sh**'s clicking
Feel like the man with this sh**, they like damn when he spit it
And now the ones that have pa**ed are wishing that they'd've picked him
But uh, in my life I've been through a lot of things
That's probably why I got no problem talking 'bout the sh** I've seen
Yeah, you live the life? Well, that's alright I live the dream
And every move I'm making now is for my team
[Hook x2]
[Breakdown]
They wanna know just how it happened, I don't know what I should tell 'em
Everybody 'round me getting jealous and I'm thinking I might need second cell
Yeah, one for my friends another for my personnel
Maybe they support it cause the story's so compelling
Or maybe cause I'm great I think it could be that as well
A million other reasons so there isn't any telling
But it's easy if I do say so myself
