Running through the school halls Just before our basketball pep-rally jumped off (hah!) My house, my home, my hood (hah!) My brother, my sister, my cous' (hah!) My n***as that was there from the beginning Been wit me even 'fore they knew what bein' with me was Y'all n***as just glanced at it, now I got y'all staring at it But it's been the same ol' North Carolina it's been being Y'all n***as just getting it, oh it's a shame isn't it?

Putting it down for my n***as in the south side North Carolina, South Carolina And all my little bitty overlooked hick towns We gonna hit y'all a**es, ain't nothing but a T. T. blast What we got coming at you? (Beats?) slamming, (verses?) cla**ic (Gold for this) What's after platinum? (Baby you don't want the bomb) And I don't meant to scare ya But I'm about to bring it home Blow these valleys, these hills, these streams And N. C. outta the water How's it feel to look a motherf**er dead in the grill And tell 'em, "I told ya!" [Hook] This one's for North Carolina!
