[hook]

[verse]
this isn’t flashy ca
but we’re the loving va
you may have, your crème brûlée
but we got, our bodos okay
we don’t run, on politics
we got our arts and farmers markets
and a loving family
that says no, to street, violence
this city builds on the way that people dream
and if you climb up to the top it can become a reality
i had great teachers, show me my true identiy
and show me great places, downtown for some ice cream
now people are just driving, or just sitting while they’re listening
to some random kid, saying nonsense and rapping
“oh look at what’s happening to the music on the air waves!”
“oh is he eighteen? well he’s probably on drugs anyways.”
k first off, i’ve never ever touched illegal drugs
and second i do more, i play saxophone in jazz clubs
and third who are you to judge me in the first place
att-tude like that will get you into violence
and cause commotions and fear through the day
when one little kid just wanted to go out and play
“i want to go outside with my friends,” the kid would say
but mommy and daddy were too scared, and said to stay
now this isn’t the kind of image i wanted for us
googling sat-rday was just so much disgust
i want to turn that frown upside down
and as teh sun rises at dawn i wanna be proud that

yeah, this is my town (yeah this is my town)

’cause this is our town
yeah this is my town
now imma live how i want to
n0body’s gonna change it now
’cause you know why?
’cause this is my town!
[interlude]
what happened over the weekend in charlottesville, virginia was, disgusting. i can’t look at my beautiful, growing, curious daughters and say nothing when this kind of thing is happening. we all need to stand against what is wrong, acknowledge that racism exist, and stand up for what is right, and civil, and kind. our message is plain and simple. go home. you are not wanted, in this great commonwealth. shame on you. you pretend to be patriots, but you are anything but a patriot. you came here today, to hurt people. and my message is clear, we are stronger than you
