[Freddie Gibbs, Karriem Riggins - City lyrics]
There's many men and women
Broke, when they get dough they
Never try to spend it
Why? 'cause you know they say
We living in a recession
Never listen to the government
You know they on a mission
And I'm here to tell you, I be in my zone
Listenin' when you travel abroad
Then you can see the difference in
Economies overseas and Italy
Every other whip is Maserati QP
I never learned the ins and outs
While livin' in the D
Or how to pay the taxes
On the income I receive
Yeah, I guess that's how the politics be
We gon' have to pave the way for y'all
With Exxon stop price bubblin'
The gas price on my is doublin'
Higher than the giraffe's ass
They 'bout to stick it to ya
They got a shovel
'bout to dig in your stash
That's why we on tour and (In the city)
We live, we on tour and in your (City)
That's why we on tour and (In the city)
We live, we on tour and in your
Yeah, moving in my Cutlass
Through the city limit's
Roof leaking in the bucket
Yeah we was penny pinchin' empty stomach
Have you looking forward to Thanksgiving
Cold Spam, fried balogna
Yeah I forgot to mention
That's what I was raised on
Jumped off in the game on
I was thinking lobster like a mobster
Getting my sting on
Bald caps, erection, get you banged on
Living like Tony Soprano
I'll make the district change the gang laws
Gang bang, gang land, dope exchange hands
Back in '01
I hit a gangsta lick for eighty grand
Comparing me to these rappers
You must be playin'
I'm a fucking naked fire, you just
A flash in the pan, god damn
And if I wasn't rapping
I'd be still flossin'
Jumped up off that phony label
Now I'm straight bossin'
I'm selling keys to dope fiends
Sleep walkin' push a cold nine
Dead once you crossin' in my city
Yeah, we live, we on tour and in your (City)
That's why we on tour and (In the city)
We live, we on tour and in your (City)
(City, In the city)
(In the city, In the city)
