My City (Explicit) - Yo Gotti/K. Michelle

The teacher asked me what I wanted to be

I stood in front of the whole class

And I told her I wanted to be a gangsta

Every day somebody's killed in these streets

Whether innocent or guilty

It's my city nia

And you don't have to travel to another world

Cause there's a war zone in my city

It's a war zone out here

Oh Memphis oh Tennessee

No other place will be home for me ever

All the people all the struggle

In a world full of fakes my city make me a real hustler

True hustler

First three six break up and every day I wake up

A ni**a got a problem with me

I got a hundred clips a hundred guns a hood full of killers

And I dare something to happen to me

See my city it's a different state there's no other

We used to have to make it through the the summer

And everybody mob some everybody rob some

Everybody scrap and everybody shot some

Young niggas like ice

Killing like they got lice

Life used to be priceless now it's worthless

Niggas gone on missions ain't even worth it

Lil homie chill chill Lil homie chill chill

Lil homie don't respect the big homies no more

And choppers no more handguns no more

Four deep four hundred shots everybody under 16

I remember I was getting bricks for the 16

The city changed ni**a

Every day somebody's killed in these streets

Whether innocent or guilty

And you don't have to travel to another world

Cause there's a war zone in my city

Oh Memphis oh Tennessee

No other place will be home for me

All the people all the struggle

In a world full of fakes my city make me a real hustler

You know it's rules and regulations when you king of the city

And nias coming for the throne some niggas don't make it home

Ain't talking that rap sh*t don't speaking about real beef

Where big homies can get wet and niggas can't get sleep

Put a 10 on a ni**a f**k that put a 50

Make his friend do the ni**a

This Memphis ten ni**a

Home of the poverty home of the robberies

We going through some real sh*t like ni**a don't you bother me

It's going down in the DM

Nah nia it's going down when I see him

Biggest record of my career I'm becoming a star

And I'm shooting an AR at the cops

Look at your favorite rapper

Just be patient he gone f**k up he a Memphis ni**a

Maybe I will maybe I won't

Thugging

Money don't change that fame can't change that

I've done shirt to niggas in the streets I can't take back

So every second of my life I got a gun and I hate that

But this Memphis if you get caught without you gone regret that

F**k it

Every day somebody's killed in these streets

Whether innocent or guilty

And you don't have to travel to

Cause there's a war zone in my city

Oh Memphis oh Tennessee

No other place will be home for me

All the people all the struggle

In a world full of fakes my city make me a real hustler
