lyrics born - my city lyrics

[chorus]
my city sings so loud
after all she’s been through
where who she sings about
tell me do you know her too
my city sings so loud
been that way forever
where who she sings about
and we’re singing it to you

[refrain: lateef]
can you hear her calling
calling through the darkness
rain or sun upon me
she is with me always
her voice is all the guidance
needed for sole surviving
she speaks with so much pride
there ain’t nowhere to hide from
my city
[verse 1: lateef]
she ain’t always pretty
that’s what makes her beautiful
some don’t apprеciate her
she’s dangеrously straightforward
when articulating any danger
but if you’re a stranger
you may not pick up on all the slanguage
it can be difficult takes
those that are new
a second or two
to get over the rumors and to see her beauty truly
the way she looks so cooly over the water
inspires many of author
regardless of the genre
double and triple entendre
she’s so responsive to the real to the fake
she turns a colder shoulder on ya
she’ll keep you holding on to the important parts
of what makes you an individual
and force you into entrepreneurship
cut the bullsh+t
even though she loves the drama
and could run a marathon a game upon ya with no commas
she still got love for the underdog side of
she’ll lead the bravest of hearts into a better tomorrow
listen
[chorus]
my city sings so loud
after all she’s been through
where who she sings about
tell me do you know her too
my city sings so loud
been that way forever
where who she sings about
and we’re singing it to you

[refrain: gift of gab]
can you hear her calling
calling through the darkness
rain or sun upon me
she is with me always
her voice is all the guidance
needed for sole surviving
she speaks with so much pride
there ain’t nowhere to hide from

[verse 2: gift of gab]
my city’s mostly known by those
who truly really lived a life
a lot of rappers want to live but
they do not have any stripes
communities have come to her
to get away from the exact thing
that they brought with them but
on her brighter days she’s full of love and unity
when they say her name, they proudly said it
all she breeds is gs
you do not want to get rowdy
valley girl from the east side
soul and rhythm in her style
you don’t know her
greet her face to face
i bet you know her now
come ingest it
gang infested
turn your smirking upside down
she ain’t really multicultural
she’s strictly black and brown
hopefully she gets it all together
while she’s growing older
so that you can hang with her
without looking over your shoulder
she always providing ways
for the community to prosper
gathering in trips to places
to breath in the greener pastures
she will help you find your balance
if your inner soul is searching
cause on every other corner
there are liquor stores and churches
sing it to them girl
[chorus]
my city sings so loud
after all she’s been through
where who she sings about
tell me do you know her too
my city sings so loud
been that way forever
where who she sings about
and we’re singing it to you

[refrain: lyrics born]
can you hear her calling
calling through the darkness
rain or sun upon me
she is with me always
her voice is all the guidance
needed for sole surviving
she speaks with so much pride
there ain’t nowhere to hide from

[verse 3: lyrics born]
i love her golden brown complexion
her accent, her inflection
your grandeur, your splendor
her passion is endless
she’s wavy like beige sand
rays bouncing off your ray bans
she always politickin’
forward thinking
yet laid back
everybody want to give her brain
everybody want to pick her brain
not sure of her ethnicitay
baby mixed with everythang
everyone applauds her
most people can’t afford her
she fine as h+ll but she a little rough around the borders
dudes be coming from everywhere to get a glimpse of her beauty
usually she warm but she can be a little moody
she’ll shake shake yo ass up when you least expect it
she can get a little fiery if she feels disrespected
she knows of all things
when i hear her name spoken
it’s like golden guitar strings
how many songs have you written?
how many artists have you smitten?
she’s long been independent
she’s where we’ve all been headed all along
but didn’t get it
