Freddie Gibbs - GI Pride lyrics

[Verse 1] I was born in small town with big dreams Pops told me as a child I would do big things Used to watch him in the mirror when he used to rehearse Hella talented but talent wasn't makin' no merch Another product of that Gary, Indiana Sex, d**, and murder Dirty politicians, dirty police, dirty burners On the streets as a worker Was a very fast learner School never taught me how to be a earner Before you mothaf**ers bother me just take a look at this economy Cause economically we at the bottom So playa hatin' n***as copy me My enemies they tried to body me But couldn't get to me before I got ‘em A motherf**in' problem Gangster Gibbs When I do it do it big Put it down for the crib Rap sh** to totin' that gat sh** And it's plain to see That it ain't no changin' me [HOOK] I'm comin' live from the G, A-R-Y Good or bad, right or wrong Where the young boys die No mercy, no pity in my city and it's plain to see That it ain't no changin' me n***a I'm fresh up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) I'm straight up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) I said I'm fresh up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) n***a I'm straight up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) [Verse 2] I'm comin' live from the G, A-R-Y Good or bad, right or wrong Where the young boys die No mercy, no pity, not a tear in my eye Why cry, I'mma blaze another blunt n' get high Look in the sky, blow the smoke to my n***as Pray to God for forgiveness Yes I'm sinnin' but I'm winnin' and it's bidness on you b**hes You can go against my wishes and put a stop on my riches Then my peeps leave you sleep in Lake Michigan with the fishes n***as think that it's fictitious till they hear that ratta-tatta n***as scatter Even senior citizens tote the hammer Thought that Gary, Indiana was movin' on up the ladder But I guess it didn't matter when the crackers got sick'a Hatcher They turn their back to us Introduce crack to us Got you ridin' with that iron in that black Buick I been through it, you can feel it in my music Cook it up and move it This is how we do it [HOOK] I'm comin' live from the G, A-R-Y Good or bad, right or wrong Where the young boys die No mercy, no pity in my city and it's plain to see That it ain't no changin' me n***a I'm fresh up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) I'm straight up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) I said I'm fresh up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) n***a I'm straight up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) [Verse 3] n***a I represent the East side 7-tier GBT town Riff block, valley boy n***a catch a beat down Midtown, Marshalltown, Avignon, Goldmiller GV Concord Bronx n***as real k**as Etna to Ironwood, full of crazy n***as Shady n***as, can't forget ‘bout my Delaney n***as And all my homies through the streets of the G I'm gonna let the streets speak though me It's for them cats pushin' packs in the hallway Doin' it the hard way Posted on the corner like liquor stores on Broadway Watchin' for the jackals keep ‘em clappin for the gunplay Live for the day Motherf** what a n***a say I'm just showin' off my GI pride Anywhere the kid go, you know GI ride So I dedicate this record to my GI thugs And I bleed the same GI blood [HOOK] I'm comin' live from the G, A-R-Y Good or bad, right or wrong Where the young boys die No mercy, no pity in my city and it's plain to see That it ain't no changin' me n***a I'm fresh up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) I'm straight up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) I said I'm fresh up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana) n***a I'm straight up outta (Gary Indiana, Gary Gary Indiana)
