Key: E minor•
Verse 1
Em
Bm
Brooklyn, I rap for every block
I ever lived on Hull Street,
Lafayette, Decatur Street.
aim for the head, chest fortified.
Gotta do it here, can't afford to try.
Thought the gutter ended in a veil,
They get wet daily,
it's a live nigga water ride.
Slow and steady, win the race,
Em
Bm
step aside, let the tortoise by.
It's the 100 man street value,
100 grand
Instinct, nothing planned
Been through shit you could
Am
n't understand
Can't heck and do on
I'm reppin' the lifeless,
weppin' the crisis
Livin' the real world, fuck
Get love from a real girl
Dm
Am
In the crime, now she a ill pearl
You need a boost of strength,
put it on, recite me
I told the toast, the drama's always close
applaud my folks
absorb the quotes
and there's more to dose
Yeah, I'm from the bottom,
I'm from the gutter,
some pride, some feel
Word to the mother, some lie, some steal
Some get knocked,
some blime, some kill
But that's the gutter where condom chill
Back down, most brolic, dude
Same if I'm in solitude
Or with the wildest crew
Like ghosts while it's true
I run with a crook or two
Em
Bm
Look who escaped out Brooklyn Zoo
F*** that queen I'll show you what
G
Bm
a knight and a rooker do
Bm
Am
New York City Bronson
Heat up Cricket and Vinnie Johnson,
the block got bloods now
need money poundin'
Bundles, bundles, bundles,
a hundred thousand
On the hottest strip to see who I gotta hit
Em
Bm
to start runnin' housing
I listen to my id, respect my ego
If I need counsel, bounce through,
check my people
I accept as equal
Never move a cruise,
Em
Bm
you lose if they step beneath you
I rapidly doing beef,
might elect to mesquite you
From where the bees greet you,
but they pre -sleep
The block is class,
the streets keep you
Pat his jeans, one magazine,
she sleep you
I'm from the gutter,
some pride, some feel
Word to the mother, some lie, some steal
Some get knocked,
Bm
Some even bust shots, some lie, some kill
But that's the gutter
where condoms chill
vocabulary shoddy
Forced to grow up quick,
we weren't all or none
Me and fatherless barber the same body
Selling chips from the rock Jurassic
C
Em
For heavy glory, marked territory,
Thought our young committee
was gon' run the city
One fears being unprepared,
so I bum the smitty
I'm from royalty
I represent myself,
Bm
Em
Bm
People call on me,
cause I'm ready when it's urgent
Too much grace to tremble,
Am
