[Verse 1: Vee Tha Rula]
Uh, little n***a but my heart not little
Baggy jeans tryna put some knots in them
Murder Mitten where them n***as pop pistols
Gun Ru, I was born in Blodgett Hospital, uh
Momma workin' like a slave then she whip it in the kitchen
Puttin' chicken on a plate man
Told her we gone make it out cause there's rats all in the basement
n***as' shooting by my house man
Weekends over at Granny's
She got everybody drinkin'
But the young-ins gettin' older though, uh
And over here we grow up gangstas
Everyday and every night n***as dyin' left and right
Ain't no future for a young n***a
Then we left without my father and we moved to Arizona
But just know a n***a do it for the town
[Chorus: Kid Ink]
Real n***as' in the city know I hold the sh** down
For the
You know I do it for the town
For the
Know I hold the sh** down
[Verse 2: Vee Tha Rula]
Uh, came to Phoenix feelin' like we made it
Palm trees and sh** this sh**'s amazing
Same struggle n***a different pavement
Feelin' like a outcast no Andre baby
Momma put me in a better school
Like I could learn some things I never knew
Then I met this n***a Danny Q
Put me on an ounce I started movin'
Well n***as gunnin' for me so I'm shootin'
Like what we move from Ma I'm still gon' do it
I'm a thug it's in my blood I met R.A. from Black WallStreet
And I started banging Blood too
n***a you can get these d** too
n***a clean but I get it out the mud too
Hustlin' hard you can tell gettin' paper like the mail (knock knock)
Goin' to jail
[Hook: Kid Ink]
Real n***as' in the city know I hold the sh** down
For the
You know I do it for the town
For the
Know I hold the sh** down
[Pre-Chorus: Kid Ink]
You ain't gotta trip
Uh Baby
I'm doin' what I gotta do to put the city on for real
Uh baby
Feel like the freshest mutha f**a right before you break the seal
[Verse 3: Vee Tha Rula]
Now they tryin' to sell my tapes to try to bail me out
Sit inside these walls and see what hell about
I ain't sentenced but my sentences is my help me out
Got out and start kicking sh** like Johnny Cage
I'm ready and I'm horny I could f** a b**h a hundred ways
I'm keepin' it 100
You don't like the script then turn the page
I'm k**in' every record
In the streets respecting
Just before the gold before the "A" up on my necklace
I'm goin' more than gold I'm causin' mayhem cause I'm next
And then I made that out it Paris
Then Alumni started reppin'
Now I'm sliding' through street cause I'm the man no second guessing
My two cities know I got em' not a question
[Hook: Kid Ink]
Real n***as' in the city know I hold the sh** down
For the
You know I do it for the town
For the
Know I hold the sh** down
[Pre-Chorus: Kid Ink]
You ain't gotta trip
Uh Baby
I'm doin' what I gotta do to put the city on for real
Uh baby
Feel like the freshest mutha f**a right before you break the seal
Voicemail: Yo, it's me man my nephew got k**ed, I need to talk to you
