Doin' this for my city man
Everybody out there
Represent for their city man

A city like mine man
I come from the bottom man
Where they ain't got nothing man

Look look
Where I come from
Where I came to be

Whole different world
Ain't the same for me
I'm a city frustrated

My city angry
They're still mad at some crackers
For killin' ?

They're still mad .. gonna
I'm from the ..
My city the

If this was basketball
My city ?.
All it was .. some killers

Around me
Sad faces
Everyone was ?

Daddy owned drugs
Like he rap the townie
Mama's so high she's scared

Her heart pound in
..


I come from a city
With absolutely nothing
Absolutely nothing

We got nothing
My city needs me
My city needs me

My city needs me
I come from a city
With absolutely nothing

Absolutely nothing
We got nothing
My city needs me

My city needs me
My city needs me
From my city I'm all we got


I'm from OAKLAND
Call? My city stays in me

No hope for the kids
Can't pay for the seeds
My little brother brother


Be safe on the streets
You can feel it in the air

The hate in the scene
Especially when a !@$@ getting' paid
Pay for your cheese

OPD carryn' big .. and squeeze
They got 15 murders
They ain't playin' with J/G

They? killer con quick
Also some killer con %#@!
Man the Oakla police

Also got the doom %#@!
Man the death in the air
It's smellin' when you land

Same spot
Bring the ?baby in a trash cane


Chorus

My city needs me

If they wanna go far
My city needs a logo
My city needs a star

My city needs .. talk
What they're goin' through
What's going on in my city
Man I'm showin' you
(*##$ .. only fifteen

His mama ..
His daddy sniffs cream
His sisters no boy
His brother don't boy
His granny alcoholic

Man ain't a joke boy
His granddaddy gay
His uncle in the Feds
Ice has got it's aunty on a death pain
He's all by himself no one to feed him

He learned by himself no one to teach him

Chorus
