Song Lyrics

Grrt, boom boom
(Yo Ril, this shit crazy)
Ayo, niggas might not understand why I do what I do right now
Hopefully, it hit niggas a little later, different
(Bands on the track)
Nothing like y'all niggas, at all
I'm hungry, I want my bread, get f*ck out my face
Gang, nigga (grrt, boom)

I got the city on my back (I got the city on my back)
We put the city on the map (nigga, we put the city on the map)
I got the city on my back (I got the city on my back)
We put the city on the map (we put the city on the map)
I put the city on my back (grr, grr)
I put the city on my back (boom, boom, boom, boom)
I put the city on my back (grr, grr)
We put the city on the map (boom, boom, boom, boom)
Put the city on the map

I put them trenches on the map
I was outside before the rap
Nigga try me, getting wacked
Niggas ain't ride, no they cap
We catch a body then look for another one
Nah we ain't with that tick for tack
They on my dick, like give it back
I'm in a spiff I'm gettin' spat
And I need me a flat
'Cause I don't remember last time nigga sat down, took a nap
We going back to your block, and spin it back
Let out forty four shots, and hit his back
While I know I can't lack
I got a shooter right here, and you know he be toting a MAC
Cop me a Bentley, your ho in the back
Try and we go in, you know it's a fact
My life, my life, so crazy now
I ain't know I had potential to make it out
My life, my life, so crazy now
Boy you stupid if you think you gon' take me out

I got the city on my back (I got the city on my back)
We put the city on the map (nigga, we put the city on the map)
I got the city on my back (I got the city on my back)
We put the city on the map (we put the city on the map)
I put the city on my back (grr, grr)
I put the city on my back (boom, boom, boom, boom)
I put the city on my back (grr, grr)
We put the city on the map (boom, boom, boom, boom)
Put the city on the map

Run through my city with the straps
Them niggas spun, we hit him back (boom boom boom)
I'm in your city for the racks (hey)
When they be talking, it's never facts
Where I'm from, we was taught to go get a bag
We ain't done with the trap, we having packs
And they doing bad, so I know they mad
Amiri sack 'cause they full of cash
F*ck all the opps, they made we made it (f*ck all the opps)
Doctor having patients, we gon' run in they spot, do reservations
Shooters spin every block, like sanitation (spin every block, like sanitation)
RIP Pop Smoke, gotta smoke and get elevated (RIP Pop Smoke)
Speak on the gang, we elevate 'em (boom boom)
She give me brain, she educated (educated)
I'm switching lanes, and getting faded (skrr, skrr)
Brodie got range, but he gon' aim it
F*ck what you claim, my niggas dangerous (thirty, thirty)
We let it spray, like its a fragrance (hey)
And it's gon' rain, and make him famous
We ain't the same, don't speak my language
They know the name, we the hood favorites
Put the city on the map, made the hood famous

I got the city on my back (I got the city on my back)
We put the city on the map (nigga, we put the city on the map)
I got the city on my back (I got the city on my back)
We put the city on the map (we put the city on the map)
I put the city on my back (grr, grr)
I put the city on my back (boom, boom, boom, boom)
I put the city on my back (grr, grr)
We put the city on the map (boom, boom, boom, boom)
Put the city on the map, yeah
