Murs - Midtown lyrics

[Verse 1: Murs] Before Que went away for that bank sh** Before the hipsters moved in on that fake sh** I’m from Midtown without the gang politics Jefferson to Pico i represent for all of it Mexicans and n***as know i been letting n***as know Screaming Cloverdale before i let the trigger go But i let the trigger go, f** being a criminal Still rolling with some shiesty hustling individuals Been along till it almost break Man yall always 10 deep, n***a yall so fake Thats why i dont bring the homies to alot of my shows Can’t be responsible when they start to throw em blows Can’t stop real n***as from doing what they gotta do My homies like to trip, talk sh**, and wear a lot of blue Nowadays everybody on some different sh** Got the head up out the hood The future’s unlimited [Bridge: John Givez] It’s on Pico everyday Where OG stroll memory lane Yall n***as try to never just go When the feets right up at your door [Hook: John Givez] My n***a I’m from midtown I’m from midtown Homie I’m from midtown where they love to get down Homie I’m from midtown My n***a I’m from midtown Homie I’m from midtown where they love to get down Homie I’m from midtown Get down [Verse 2: Murs] Before Nipsey bought four door wheels Back when the little homes on the block had no chill I’m from midtown, roots in that asphalt One of many roses push they way through them cracks yall That’s what Pac said, yeah that’s what Pac said Piercing police tried to k** me I am not dead Before the grace of God there go I That means I could’ve been any of the homies that died Got it by the most high, I am so far from worthless I survive, I am present with a purpose If only to make you nervous And challenge status quo, I have done my service Ay man, ay man, ay man, ay man When I tell you where I’m from what you gotta say then I suggest that you respect my pride Anything less the whole set gon ride [Bridge: John Givez] It’s on Pico everyday Where OG stroll memory lane Yall n***as try to never just go When the feets right up at your door [Hook: John Givez] My n***a I’m from midtown I’m from midtown Homie I’m from midtown where they love to get down Homie I’m from midtown My n***a I’m from midtown Homie I’m from midtown where they love to get down Homie I’m from midtown Get down [Outro: Murs] Hey look, man I know, that this beat is gangster as f** But I’m not, and i never have been I’m all about peace and love and unity And this song is about my dream and how My whole career I just wanted everyone to get along Man I know everybody from midtown from somewhere different We don’t all get along But if we don’t get it together you all They about take this whole sh** right out from under us So yall don’t gotta f** with them n***as over there But don’t f** with them n***as over there You know what I’m saying? It’s about being at peace with yourself And once you’re at peace with yourself Then you can be at peace with everybody else And that doesn’t mean we gotta shake hands and hang out and sh** But we gotta stop k**ing each other I’m from midtown!
