Now we gotta teach em how we do it where we from

Every single chord every melody we sung

Pierces like a sword cause there’s power in your tongues

let your voices roar, everything inside your lungs

My city is reminding me

that everything inside these streets

have cause what I have strived to be

My City is why I believe that I’m chosen

so even when I’m broken, I’ll never stop the hoping, My City where I’m going going going going home

Now I was born inside the city where it’s windy cause the choppas blow,

violence in the streets so it’s no choice our rappers gotta flow

Basketball is not a joke

Light you up if you want smoke

Bullets boutta hit you from behind it’s like you dropped the soap

I’m riding through streets like lil Chano Ima Chance(Chicago Artist) it

Ray Charles(Chicago Artist) every single track they gotta hand it

Sunday Service(Chicago Artist) playing while I pray away the traffic

Shit I wrote in UIUC classes they was classics

Hit the River walk on Michigan and Wacker

And if you come from here you know it’s fuck the Packers

I’ll be the number one like D Rose in the rafters

and if I’m number two then I’m Kawhi on the raptors

Now we gotta teach em how we do it where we from

Every single chord every melody we sung

Pierces like a sword cause there’s power in your tongues

let your voices roar, everything inside your lungs

My city is reminding me

that everything inside these streets

have cause what I have strived to be

My City is why I believe that I’m chosen

so even when I’m broken, I’ll never stop the hoping, My City where I’m going going going going home

RIP to Juice it’s 999, he a reason why I rap for, and when the city need a verse I’m who they’ll ask for, Filipino artist what he gettin on the map for, it’s cause he’s stayed up on the speakers, made em blast more, tryna be the single reason everybody dance more, swishin every bucket never hit the backboard, I could really teach you like I’m drawing on a blackboard and now they wonder why I be abusing every track for ugh it’s a fire, it’s growing fast, and I go hard in the paint never pass, it’s for Chicago so you gotta make it blast, I go to Sunnyside I’m spending all the cash, I feel like Sosa while I’m smokin on the gas, they hatin on me cause I move a lot of mass, and yeah I’m Asian so you know I’m good at math, that’s why I’m running numbers up every track

Now we gotta teach em how we do it where we from

Every single chord every melody we sung

Pierces like a sword cause there’s power in your tongues

So let your voices roar, everything inside your lungs

My city is reminding me

that everything inside these streets

have cause what I have strived to be

My City is why I believe that I’m chosen

so even when I’m broken, I’ll never stop the hoping, My City where I’m going going going going home
