capital ode - going back home lyrics

[intro]

[verse 1]
new york on the map now
f-ck that, we made the map
tell them n-ggas back down
we hip hop, where you been at?
buildings in the background
a famous town but you know that
jersey ‘cross the river where them new york giants playing at
that’s where i was staying at
taught me how to cook
before i moved into the city where the tourists stop and look
ladies clutch they pocket books ’cause things are much scarier
for real, when you’re walking through that tri-state area
uh, who’s ever crib we in, mothers burn incense
think you in the caribbean, just islands and accents
max said “do it for the hood”, ess-x
newark and e.o. and orange, don’t test it
i’m blessed with this gift and here, i’ve found a stage
if i do it to their standards then you’re about to be amazed
so in case you ain’t following the flow i just did
i hit both sides of the hudson like the g.w. bridge

[hook]
i’m going back home
though i’m on my own, i know that i could never ever do it all alone
so i’m going back home
see me in my city, the sun goes down and the lights so pretty
so i’m going back home
back where i belong, the people and the places i ain’t seen in so long
so i’m going back home
’cause though i’m on my own, i know that i could never ever do it all alone
i’m going back home

[verse 2]
i been rhyming since we was calling them hoes baudits
that southern drawl let them n-ggas know i’m bout it-bout it
could never doubt it, even when i’m surrounded
by these new york city lights, on my life, i’d never down it
alabama to florida and it’s all loving
my partner dem, we all kin, we all cousins
them suckers talking that quack-quack, they all ducking
turn around and try to b-tter us up like french m-ffins
i’m fort lauderdale, lauderhill, oakland park boulevard
since i was a jit and i miss them all
plus an alabama bob jones patriot
living out at flagstone and looky now, we making it
my style is what they made of it and i appreciated it
and if you hated, you probably just mad we seen you fade a bit
big boi said it first so y’all ain’t gon’ get mad at me
but “sleep and you’ll get served with some southern hospitality”

[hook]

[verse 3]
toronto, toronto, it’s been a while, i’m still your child
i went away, became a man, and i hope we can reconcile
i didn’t plan on leaving you but because i did
everything was so much harder as a kid
ashamed down in florida ’cause they saw me as different
when i’d say i came from canada, eventually i didn’t
and who the h-ll ‘my kidding? you see me shake my head
i turned my back on you like an uncomfortable bed
i’m more twisted than a dread, i lost touch with all my friends
so i gotta become famous so that they’ll see me again
be the king of the queen city? i doubt it
i just hope that they gon’ show me pity about it
so i’ma be around it, just look up and you’ll see o
’cause i ain’t out of breath when you see me calling t.o
scarborough my hood, toronto the good
and i’m a represent my city like i f-cking should
home

[hook 2x]
