Lecrae - Welcome To H-Town lyrics
H-Town, yeah Welcome to H-Town They say the boy's ridin' clean But what I became, what does it really mean Cup full of lean, got a sweet for the green Wake up, boy this ain't a dream Welcome to H-Town Fell in love with a harsh road at my auntie house Dipping with my kin folks, then spoke, okay I candy paint s**y, as we're tipping under city lights Got them boys flexing, baby, every time we pimp the ride Grippin' wood grain, always sipping good, man We was down' for whatever, wished somebody would mayne Intice me with them vices, yeah man, looking pretty like a bad yellow bone While I'm dipping through the city. Th-Th-Throw it in the game is going down, I'm yelling mayday! It's like the world stood still while we bought them gray tapes. Ch-chop chop screwed, I just-I just act a fool is got me wondering what's next, baby, when this life is through I was born in H-Town, starched down way back When the slabs in the city beat the Screw up in the back Poking out, keep them spinners, eating Frenchies chicken dinner Family came from 3rd Ward Scott Street on up to Ennis Hanging out on Sunnyside with my cousin Corey They was on that purple Sprite, I was feeling sipping 40s Can you still pimpin' stories as I'm pa**ing by Yates Stop and wonder if I'll ever have 'stakes I told my cousin D at TSU "I smoke trees, I think the Lord is calling me, both of us are agree" And, man, I love the city of my birth, that's why I plea That God will change the H, same way He's changing me! Cause all I cared about was riding clean A packet full of green, and find a bad yella I can put up on my team My bro is riding dirty, know your soul ain't clean Aye gon' let the Lord intervene! Welcome to H-Town I'm praying for H-Town Yeah, yeah Welcome to H-Town I had a dream on the plane that I was sitting in the slabs Seat back, face up, chunkin deuce and givin dap Talking to my patnas 'bout this plans that I have When I told them "Oklahoma" mayne them boys just laughed, like "Where there at, folk? " "man, you've been joking" "yeah, you, but you ain't get dope" It's like they didn't understand me I've been that hope trying to serve God. They want me serve the things with that dope, but that's when we flat broke Pa** the k**. And as I got higher, that's when I started to feel "dog, we're smoking k**" I backed away from the k**a, He picked up my life and my vision got clearer Destiny is screamin it's fate, but I hear her, things are bad right now But the man in the mirror is trying to make a change, rearrange some things H-Town, I still love you, hold up, mayne Now what ya know about them Texas boys? N-N-Now what ya know about them Texas boys? Now what ya know about them Texas boys? Now what ya know about them Texas boys? Welcome to H-Town Yeah, Yeah Welcome to H-Town Whoa, Yeah They said the boys ridin clean, Fresh up on the scene But when I began, what does it really mean? Cup full of lean, got a sweet full of green Wake up, boy this ain't a dream Welcome to H-Town Yeah, Yeah Welcome to H-Town I'm praying for H-Town Welcome to H-Town
