Drake City is Mine by Drake
[VERSE 1]
This the record that my backpack underground fans
get to get to skippin
Back back, Southern town fans get to tippin
Chasin
fat stacks, runnin down grands and submission
I don't back track, every
single sound for me different
I don't own no ice, just got clean rap
Don't
ever two step, I just rock, lean, snap
We could take it out to Houston where
the rides all glossed up
Anybody I'm standin beside's all bossed
up
Burgular ? they say I'm servin them rhymers
And me and Nickel F go
together like burgers and diners, yes
I'm like a waiter and you something
like a hater
With trays in both hands, place an order I can cater uh
I got
the diamonds in my teeth flow
Memphis is the reason that my rhyming and my *chopped voice* speech slow
Peep though, I only got pity for you
lames
Sitting pretty in the game, in the city that I
claim
[CHORUS]
Yo, the city is mine (which
one?)
T-O-R-O-N-T-O
D-R-A-K-E that's me
You know how the story
goes
Pull up, range rove, yo chick, wanna roll
And I play myself in the
stereo
And I make 'em wanna
Shake shake it, drop it drop it, bounce it
bounce it, wop it wop it
Girl, move that thang like you gettin money for
college, go!
Shake shake it, drop it drop it, bounce it bounce it, wop it wop
it
Girl, move that thang like you gettin money for college,
go!
[VERSE 2]
Break it down like you working for your tuition
at Howard
Mama, get it how you live, that thang that you working is
power
Tryna be generous, so honey here's a tip
Now-a-days it's gettin
cheaper to put 20's on the whip
So if you a opportunist look for 20's in the
clip
And if you find 'em attractive and funny, that's when you dip,
dip
And it's a trip, my city broke into sections
Up North I got me a
couple of troubles, couple connections
And it's nothing that I created on
purpose, there's people that gotta problem
But they scared to let it surface,
uh
Ya boy say this, that, and the third to 'em
See me out and they never
utter a word to 'em
Expect me not to draw a card from the deck
Anybody in
my city going hard I respect but,
You gotta debt and you choose not to pay
that
Imma hop ya fence, come into your yard and collect, lect uh
It ain't
a problem of concern bruh, I always end up with exactly what I earn bruh
This
ain't last year, money like a cashier, so hand your receipt if you tryna make a
return bruh
Yessir, I live in a city where a lot of people don't get shine,
shine
And, I be on by the fence as soon as anybody stepping out of line,
line
And I got way too much love, for the city I can never get too much
of
And if anybody hatin on me, I deport 'em, the city is mine
boy
[CHORUS]
Yo, the city is mine (which

BIG DREAMS by BOW WOW
Verse
I had a homie named Tony 16, 6'2
Headed to the NBA straight from
High School
My nigga has his ball game on lock
But at the same time he was
in love with the block
All the stuff that came wit it the drugs and the guns,
the gangs the slang and all the funds
He just got a letter of detent from the
Cavaliers saying how they love him and they wish he was there
He had it made
like special-ed about to get the bread
But chose to do something dumb
instead
Go to war with the crew on the other side of town
And was more
ready and Tony got laided down
He ain't even have a chance
Died before the
ambulance even got to him
So many went through him
I hate to tell the
story but that's how it is
Growing up in the hood as a
kid
[Chorus]
When you got big dreams
Don't listen to what
nobody say and don't let nobody turn you away
When you got big dreams
Keep
your eyes on the prize don't fall to the way side
When you got big
dreams
Don't listen to what nobody say and don't let nobody turn you
away
When you got big dreams
Keep your eyes on the prize don't fall to the
way side reach for the sky
[Verse 2]
I knew a girl named Gina
that was a hell of a singer
And everybody fell in love with her when they
seen her
Babygirl was on the verge of signing a big deal
18 and life
looked so so real
She was stuck with a dude that was all bad news
And all
he ever did was give baby the blues
And she was true to a nigga, do for a
nigga, pop you and your whole crew for a nigga
One night he came and picked
her up, told her let's ride
That's the same night that he watched her
die
They was tryna hit a lick but the lick hit back
Put a end to the deal
and all of that
She ain't even have to be there and he knew it wasn't
right
Now he gotta deal wit it for the rest of his life
And the part I
don't like he ain't even get grazed
But the home girl Gina is laying in the
grave
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
I got a few relatives
giving the family drama
Always got they hands out when they see me and my
mama
One could have been a doctor, the other a chef
But when he got his
own kitchen he was cooking something else
Now his life in the drain, a
trifling shame
He all washed up, wife took everything
No car no more, no
house
And everywhere he go he stole so they throwed him out
I was growing
up looking up to be like them
Now I'm throwing up cash rolling up in the
Benz
I was stuck with a dream I had since a shorty and I'll be damned if I
let another man support me
Now Uncle June Buck sick, skinny as hell
He got
AIDS in his body from the needles he shared
Everytime he get his welfare
checks he don't care
If you wanna see him go to he crackhouse he
there
[Chorus]
When you got big dreams
[3x]
When you got big dreams don't fall to the way side reach for
the sky
JESUS WALKS by Kayne West
Yo, We at war
We at war with terrorism, racism, and most of all we at war
with ourselves
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying
to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me) with me, with me, with me
[fades]
You know what the Midwest is?
Young &
Restless
Where restless (Niggas) might snatch your necklace
And next these
(Niggas) might jack your Lexus
Somebody tell these (Niggas) who Kanye West
is
I walk through the valley of the shadow of death is
Top floor the view
alone will leave you breathless Uhhhh!
Try to catch it Uhhhh! It's kinda hard
hard
Getting choked by the detectives yeah yeah now check the method
They
be asking us questions, harass and arrest us
Saying "we eat pieces of shit
like you for breakfast"
Huh? Yall eat pieces of shit? What's the basis?
We
ain't going nowhere but got suits and cases
A truck full of crap rental car
from Avis
My momma used to say only Jesus can save us
Well momma I know I
act a fool
But I'll be gone 'til November I got packs to move I
Hope
[Hook x2]
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the
Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that
that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I don't
think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus Walks with
me)
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so
long
To the hustlers, killers, murderers, drug dealers even the
strippers
(Jesus walks with them)
To the victims of Welfare for we living
in hell here hell yeah
(Jesus walks with them)
Now hear ye hear ye want to
see Thee more clearly
I know he hear me when my feet get weary
Cause we're
the almost nearly extinct
We rappers are role models we rap we don't
think
I ain't here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert
atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school need
teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way I need Jesus
So
here go my single dog radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything
except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
But if I talk
about God my record won't get played Huh?
Well let this take away from my
spins
Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope this take
away from my sins
And bring the day that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm
in the club everybody screaming out
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way
because the devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks)
The only thing
that that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I
don't thing there's nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus walks with
me... fades)
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in
so long
Think I'm Crazy - Chamillionaire
[Chorus: Natalie:]
I want to know who you are but you seem very
nice
So will you talk to me?
Shall I tell you a story? Shall I tell you a
treat?
They think I'm crazy, They don't understand how I
feel
[Verse 1: Chamillionaire]
See, it started off as just a
simple conversation I gave her
The name of my record company, (Oh you're a
singer)
I said my name's Chamillionaire and I'm a rap entertainer
(Oh you
that guy they talking bout when they be whispering, ain't cha
Bring your name
up when they talking and say money will change ya
I heard a lot about how you
can't deal with your anger
Heard the rumors how your always in trouble or
danger
Not gotta judge you if it's true, there's no need to explain
sir
You do have a right to be, you seem like your nice to me
I'm bout to
order me another drink, yeah would you like a seat?)
I tell the bartender
same Hennesey on ice for me
Her drink starts emptying while she's spilling
out her life to me
Telling me about her goals and how successful she would
like to be
And invite me to a session of her life and she
Seems so damn
innocent but something isn't right to me
She pulls out her picture phone "I
got pictures, would you like to see?"
I'm thinking she gotta be friendly as
hell
Giving a soul to me, it's like an identity sell
We never met is the
story that my memory tells
Telling me tales like she doesn't handle Hennesey
well
Getting into it, getting intimate and into details
See, I just met
you and you showing me your kids
"Who said I had any kids? I didn't bring up
no kids"
Then who's in this picture, "Man, let you show you just who it
is"
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: Chamillionaire]
Umm, I
don't remember her name but she look like an angel
She wasn't from here, I
knew she didn't hang a
Round this part of the hood but hey the story gets
stranger
Cause this stranger was stranger than I could explain you see
She
said she wasn't married but the ring on her finger
Told me she was lying and
using the same uhh
Game I use on women so I couldn't even blame
her
Spitting the game I spit to 'em when I'm trying to bang her
(I bump
into this guy, he told me that he used to know you
He told me about the
loyalty and love he used to show you
He said what he said with a passion like
it was so true
Wouldn't take advantage of the fact that the listeners didn't
really know you)
There's pictures in my pocketbook, almost got it, I'll show
you
She digs in her purse and while she fumbles around
I find that photo,
I'm like "Oh no there's some trouble in town"
I turn around as these two
officers is coming in now
They walk in real suspicious and come and sit
down
So close, I can see they barrels of the guns to the ground
So close
that they can listen to either one of us now
We turn back around and she says
no need for whispering
Then she tells me that (I don't really give a damn
whose listening
Try to make it last a long time was my mission
And he kept
on tripping and then I got pissed at him
Hit 'em with my fist and my punches
were never missing him)
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:
Chamillionaire]
Okay, let's get this straight, your man cheated on you
and now
You talking to a perfect stranger like it's making you proud
And
the rest of this conversation she just telling me how
It wasn't her boyfriend
in the pic but a familiar smile
She said (pictures can be deceiving like she
knew he was foul
Look closer, you'll see a coward who uses his smile as
power
Fleeing the smoke strength, couldn't stand it another hour
So she
did what she did then she went to go take a shower)
Damn what do you mean? (
couldn't tell you that I missing him)
I don't understand what your saying,
how did you get rid of him?
She dissing him, as I ask her what it is she did
to him
She stops, Ay keep talking I'm listening
(I don't wanna tell about
the images I'm picturing)
Henny spilling then she tell me (For real and
I
got the feeling of what I'm feeling is that I wanted to kill him)
Something's
wrong here and I know just who is the villian
Her voice was getting louder,
the moral is getting clearer
The officers is looking at us and I can tell
they can hear her
Told me (It was protection, Reached for it in the
stash)
The plastic is what she grabbed and she put it right on his
ass
Bust it before the blast, she thought she was free at last
Baby I
think you crazy, Sorry I'm pressing for time
I gotta go grind, time's been
interesting
Now I'm sweating and stressing, this girl's got me
guessing
That this conversation is some type of evil confession
She pulls
a clearer picture, it's my damn ex-best friend
How you know him? She told me
she was with him at his house
Watching movies on Sundays when they be
chilling
And that's exactly the day that the hospital came to get him
The
feeling was the worst feeling that she could possibly be feeling
Stood up and
then I yelled out "Why in the hell did you kill him?"
I didn't kill him, I
have AIDS, he had sex with 'em and that's
crazy

We rappers are role models we rap we don't
think
I ain't here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert
atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school need
teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way I need Jesus
So
here go my single dog radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything
except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
But if I talk
about God my record won't get played Huh?
Well let this take away from my
spins
Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope this take
away from my sins
And bring the day that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm
in the club everybody screaming out
(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way
because the devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks)
The only thing
that that I pray is that my feet don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I
don't thing there's nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus walks with
me... fades)
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in
so long
Think I'm Crazy - Chamillionaire
[Chorus: Natalie:]
I want to know who you are but you seem very
nice
So will you talk to me?
Shall I tell you a story? Shall I tell you a
treat?
They think I'm crazy, They don't understand how I
feel
[Verse 1: Chamillionaire]
See, it started off as just a
simple conversation I gave her
The name of my record company, (Oh you're a
singer)
I said my name's Chamillionaire and I'm a rap entertainer
(Oh you
that guy they talking bout when they be whispering, ain't cha
Bring your name
up when they talking and say money will change ya
I heard a lot about how you
can't deal with your anger
Heard the rumors how your always in trouble or
danger
Not gotta judge you if it's true, there's no need to explain
sir
You do have a right to be, you seem like your nice to me
I'm bout to
order me another drink, yeah would you like a seat?)
I tell the bartender
same Hennesey on ice for me
Her drink starts emptying while she's spilling
out her life to me
Telling me about her goals and how successful she would
like to be
And invite me to a session of her life and she
Seems so damn
innocent but something isn't right to me
She pulls out her picture phone "I
got pictures, would you like to see?"
I'm thinking she gotta be friendly as
hell
Giving a soul to me, it's like an identity sell
We never met is the
story that my memory tells
Telling me tales like she doesn't handle Hennesey
well
Getting into it, getting intimate and into details
See, I just met
you and you showing me your kids
"Who said I had any kids? I didn't bring up
no kids"
Then who's in this picture, "Man, let you show you just who it
is"
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: Chamillionaire]
Umm, I
don't remember her name but she look like an angel
She wasn't from here, I
knew she didn't hang a
Round this part of the hood but hey the story gets
stranger
Cause this stranger was stranger than I could explain you see
She
said she wasn't married but the ring on her finger
Told me she was lying and
using the same uhh
Game I use on women so I couldn't even blame
her
Spitting the game I spit to 'em when I'm trying to bang her
(I bump
into this guy, he told me that he used to know you
He told me about the
loyalty and love he used to show you
He said what he said with a passion like
it was so true
Wouldn't take advantage of the fact that the listeners didn't
really know you)
There's pictures in my pocketbook, almost got it, I'll show
you
She digs in her purse and while she fumbles around
I find that photo,
I'm like "Oh no there's some trouble in town"
I turn around as these two
officers is coming in now
They walk in real suspicious and come and sit
down
So close, I can see they barrels of the guns to the ground
So close
that they can listen to either one of us now
We turn back around and she says
no need for whispering
Then she tells me that (I don't really give a damn
whose listening
Try to make it last a long time was my mission
And he kept
on tripping and then I got pissed at him
Hit 'em with my fist and my punches
were never missing him)
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:
Chamillionaire]
Okay, let's get this straight, your man cheated on you
and now
You talking to a perfect stranger like it's making you proud
And
the rest of this conversation she just telling me how
It wasn't her boyfriend
in the pic but a familiar smile
She said (pictures can be deceiving like she
knew he was foul
Look closer, you'll see a coward who uses his smile as
power
Fleeing the smoke strength, couldn't stand it another hour
So she
did what she did then she went to go take a shower)
Damn what do you mean? (
couldn't tell you that I missing him)
I don't understand what your saying,
how did you get rid of him?
She dissing him, as I ask her what it is she did
to him
She stops, Ay keep talking I'm listening
(I don't wanna tell about
the images I'm picturing)
Henny spilling then she tell me (For real and
I
got the feeling of what I'm feeling is that I wanted to kill him)
Something's
wrong here and I know just who is the villian
Her voice was getting louder,
the moral is getting clearer
The officers is looking at us and I can tell
they can hear her
Told me (It was protection, Reached for it in the
stash)
The plastic is what she grabbed and she put it right on his
ass
Bust it before the blast, she thought she was free at last
Baby I
think you crazy, Sorry I'm pressing for time
I gotta go grind, time's been
interesting
Now I'm sweating and stressing, this girl's got me
guessing
That this conversation is some type of evil confession
She pulls
a clearer picture, it's my damn ex-best friend
How you know him? She told me
she was with him at his house
Watching movies on Sundays when they be
chilling
And that's exactly the day that the hospital came to get him
The
feeling was the worst feeling that she could possibly be feeling
Stood up and
then I yelled out "Why in the hell did you kill him?"
I didn't kill him, I
have AIDS, he had sex with 'em and that's
crazy
