lirik lagu emanuel brown - the news
chorus:
what you know about my city/
—- here it ain’t sweet/
used to be all sunshine/
no crime here on these streets/
what you know about it/
(tell me what you know)
tell me what you know about it/
(what you know, what you know)
what you know about struggle/
what you know about hustling/
man we deep in these streets/
gripping that dirty smith and weston/
what you know about it/
(tell me what you know)
tell me what you know about it/
(what you know, what you know)
1st verse:
mannnn/
—- real in this field/
used to call us country/
now we k!lling just for a meal/
we hungry/
starving/
that poverty that plague the nation/
this city here/
is just ground breaking/
but it used to be so civilized/
was a blessing in disguise/
parents thought it was paradise/
that sugar tasting/
that moved down from n.y./
had em tweaking/
from b.i.g./
to jigga doe/
dribbling all types of snow/
cuz money had us going/this side poor/it’s showing/
from 13th to the oak doe/chestnut where crack ya sh-ll/
midtown/where they move blow/
and set repping/in the duct and lawns/
the news boy/i call it home/
———— trying to put us on/
we to busy trying to get a rise/
crab minded/our thinking sh-t/
won’t make it/not before i do/
this small town/don’t have a clue/
all this drama/that we had to brew/
made us cold hearted/yeah that’s the truth/
but —- man/i just want to live/
get away from all of this/
it’s still home/it’s all i know/
muddy waters my timezone/

2nd verse:
it’s crazy/tragic/
let’s move forward/not backwards/
remember times when we was happy/
but nowadays/we active/
from when my homie almost lost his life/
from two shots to the head doe/
skull broke/and his brain swelled/
his brother shot at the same time/
to the left or right/an inch doe/amazing graces/
suit and tie/and dresses —-/
crazy thinking bout how it is/
not just in my city bruh/
you step in here/better toughen up/
word is bond/they cooking here/
an the heat is on/gas stove/with the hammer-arm/
said i wouldn’t make it/
well ryan didn’t/or a couple others/
crazy how we slay each other/no love for one another/
old heads call us dumb as h-ll/
steady wishing we go prevail/
that’s water in they wishing well/
throwing change/want to spread the wealth/
we like/keep it to ya self/cuz that —– just imaginary/
me first/you secondary/
that’s why they lay in the cemetery/
momma squeezing obituaries/
like why lord/why they have to take my child/
hoping that this will smooth out/that there i do doubt/
