Mo Betta - Lyrics

Chorus:

Been Uptown, been downtown, been West, and been South

Been North side on that Orange line, and the El, we out,

Philly, I call it my home

Philly, I call it my home

Verse 1:

Walk a narrow road on this broad street

Life experience taught me

Downtown, I just look around, get inspired by what’s around me

I was 13 on the 34, just look at how fast time flies, seeing hard workers and business starters, hustling with these odd jobs

Long blocks and 4 wheelers, them dirt bikes on that paved road

Loud speakers and tract passing, preacher man tryna save souls

Fans living with tough heart

Passionate in these tough parts

Chill mode at Love Park

Philly’s home, where the love started

Chorus:

Been Uptown, been downtown, been West, and been South

Been North side on that Orange line, and the El, we out,

Philly, I call it my home

Philly, I call it my home

Verse 2:

On a bumpy road with them trolly tracks,

Them rubble strips they spoke to me,

They showed me life ain’t easy though, that grit and grind how it’s s’posed to be

Spent 10 at that papi store and we all ate and had change

Hometown of that good food and that soul music and real slang

Keep it a bean

This jawn ain’t sweet

Philly bred, it’s different here, and I’m praying hard for more peace

But it’s my city of birth

I’m tryna be a light for it

I’m tryna show ‘em all they worth,

Brotherly love worth fighting for

Chorus:

Been Uptown, been downtown, been West, and been South

Been North side on that Orange line, and the El, we out,

Philly, I call it my home

Philly, I call it my home
