lirik lagu tim'm west - da city
don’t let the big bright lights fool ya
ain’t no award tour
this is a war toward the force
ain’t la or new york
temperature arising but you can’t sweat it
southern hospitality forget it
gonna gritty girly
alliteration ain’t waste management’s buddy
i see lines of black men walkin’
politicians talkin’
a sl!ck pimp with that [boy?] keeps talkin’
emanc~p~tion deferred
progress unheard
freedom on hold for a minute
‘cause the word on the street is held hostage
by a bible belt
they keep whoopin’ yo’ ass(k)
too many questions and you’ll never get help
we’ll die for the skrilla
pimps and drug dealers
teenagers still up in school
thеy turn strippers
cops’ll k!ll ya
if you make the wrong movе
have ya frame with the crack up in ya pocket on the move
crime rate is on the move
but it’s all in the limelight
i speak from my heart so my lyrics get five mics
prolly get signed twice so not a [blind?] right
hit ‘em with the verse 16 like i’m iron mike
huh, i’m so visual people saying they lyrical
but you can play this witcha eyes closed so seminal
i’m so critical, a weird individual
scared when they see us blacks walkin’ in the digital
yo’ we livin’ in these days and times
the light ain’t lime
time is money and we in the recession
a penny for your thoughts keep the power second~guessing
cool like rainwater in the summer (refreshing)
(h~town) the city with the lights and darks
(h~town) the place where you make ya mark
(h~town) the place where you ain’t never bein’ in love with my city in this h~o~u~s~t~o~n
(h~town) the city with the lights and darks
(h~town) the place where you make ya mark
(h~town) the place where you ain’t never bein’ in love with my city in this h~o~u~s~t~o~n
i see promise in the smiles of young ladies
who get to be girls not women with babies
diligent, go~getters, not lazy
not touched by syphilis rates or hiv
playin’ their cards right able to own some property
become freedom fighters who expose the hypocrisy
and limits the biggest place, fulfill a greater prophecy
young brothas who think its gangsta to make a’s
compliment the women, give each other praise
reverse the logic to say we can’t do better
run the hospitals that make the city mad cheddar
and we can get beyond the statistics so be my witness
h~town underground railroad back in business
the city of the bright lights
chicks look real nice
headed to sharpstown
where they make real ice
it just feels right
city no sin
don’t confuse us with them others
cause we play to win
big city smellin money in my oxygen
rainin hard i can see it through the loose lens
homies? yea my homie got a benz
he stay quiet when they ask him where he got his ends
that’s what i like about this city
yea, it’s full of friends
some crazy as h~ll
but i guess that depends
some say this city’s real evil
but ima hold it down for my h~town people
