You know how it is when I come around (I'm representin)

It's the same when I'm in and out of town (I'm representin)

If my homies call you know it's goin' down (I'm representin)

Anytime that you mentioning the South (I'm representin)

You know how it is when I come around (I'm representin)

It's the same when I'm in and out time (I'm representin)

If my homies call you know it's going down (I'm representin)

Anytime that you mentioning the South (I'm representin)

Sometimes the genre seems sterilized

Came from competition nowadays these rappers terrified

Ciphers showed the skill now they killing to be verified

Status over talent I don't feel it like I'm paralyzed

I'm only rocking with the lyricists

If rap was a religion half these rappers would be heretics

Spit it like the gospel while they try and change the narrative

Frauds tryna claim the crown stop it it's embarrassing

On the wax I'm like the fire to the paraffin

Flyer than a seraphim

Rhyming's so imperative

I love the game sad to say these days it's looking derelict

They televised the lies

And now these kids need a therapist

Some hit record before they practice this

And let they people gas em up like flatulence

The masses been desensitized

It happens when their nothing left to challenge kids

Average becomes the standard

They don't know what passion is

And have the planet's turned into masichist

Them frequencies will harm you

But you crank it up and blast the shit

I mastered it I kept the code a secret like an asterisk

I'll pass to gift to those who want that mic to burn to ashes quick

You know how it is when I come around (I'm representin)

It's the same when I'm in and out of town (I'm representin)

If my homies call you know it's goin' down (I'm representin)

Anytime that you mentioning the South (I'm representin)

You know how it is when I come around (I'm representin)

It's the same when I'm in and out time (I'm representin)

If my homies call you know it's going down (I'm representin)

Anytime that you mentioning the South (I'm representin)

Rap is an art

It's a poetry of motion

A platform for change a heartfelt devotion

From the streets to the stage yeah we share our notion

Spreadin' the love and unity is pure emotion

It's about liftin' up livin' voice to the mute

It's tellin' our stories from the pain to the pursuit

Not just the struggles but the victories too

It's the dreams and the hope to help us all push through

We celebrate the culture we honor our past

With the rhythms and rhymes with legacies that will last

Rap is the bridge that unites and connects

It's breaking down walls it's earnin' our respect

It's empowerment it's knowledge it's a way to inspire

Lightin' the way settin' hearts on fire

More than the negatives more than the fights

Rap is the canvas where we paint a new light
