J-emcee - Beddy Bye lyrics

[Produced by Chance the Rapper & J-Emcee] [Intro] Growin' up in Chicago was pretty d so, there's a lot of things that I remember - Bo Squad, goin' to Skinner School, goin' to Jones College Prep, uh workin' with my dad on the campaign for Barack. No no, it was just a lot of things and I have to say goodbye to all of them now that I'm leaving for Washington DC as a lot of you guys know. So I wrote this song, it's called "Beddy Bye" and you'll get the gist of the song as it goes along [Verse] Loose stares, train fares, frooties, chews Big bowls and loose squares Top notch hamburger Miracle workers, juke music and foot workers Dude who stand outside of Old Navy crazy We shop in Marshall Field's and never call it Macy's Chicago to me, is the kingdom of hearts I dance through streets where a king once marched It's always where you finish and it's never where you start And I can't outsmart when we move in the dark This track is hard to listen to again And now I'm swimmin' in thoughts of lake missin'-you-again Chicago I'mma marry you with a ring from Jared's A million carats of rocks the kids moved above your terrace You were the meeting place of my parents Now my bubbles popped like corn from Garrett's You scared so I leave street lights as night light Leave sky scrapers, high risers and those bright lights I know you clouds'll cry in the morn' So I'ma gonna leave on that midnight flight Beddy bye, beddy bye to the C-H-I C-H-Y I gotta tuck you in Knowin' that there'll be no good mornin' But I say "Beddy bye" to keep my eyes from pourin' Cause goodnight and goodbye both hurt my throat And it hurts to know, and it hurts to go So sweet dreams as I head for the sky But I couldn't go without saying "Beddy Bye"
