Chicago Lyrics by Novi Novak

Theory of cognition

2012

[Verse 1]
Fortunate as it may seem I'm is
I ain't never even had no shit
Lotta people wanna talk, actin like I came up rich
But let me tell you where I was before I rapped like this
I was a, poor kid, growed-up child
Class clown with a fuck-up file
Gma drove a Ford Taur round
Stayed there for school and summers
I'd pray for Christmas wouldn't be no wonders
I got in beef with gangs wouldn't be no wonder
Had a big mouth man no wonder
Almost be-came a runner
Dreamin' bout the Hummer
Till Javon got clapped n he ain't come up on the come up
Literal BIG UP! To the man up stairs
For helpin' me get here and helpin' me try to get there
I'm just me man, I hear what they say
I'm just a man at the end of the day
Lets get'm
[Hook]
Take em back to the time
When my name wasn't here
Back to when nobody cared, but still
I rep, I rep, I rep, I rep Chicago
Chicago
It's all about respect if it ain't, don't care
Tell them muhfuckas I'm here
But still, I rep, I rep, I rep
I rep Chicago
Chicago
[Verse 2]
They think I'm hatin' on rappers, thats not what it is
I just know I work way harder for this
People givin' em hand-outs and I ain't never got none
Honestly my ego probably wouldn't let me take one
When I ain't worried bout the punchlines and all the metaphors
And all the other shit that people know I'm clever for
I'm just worried bout how to get the cheddar more
I feel the pour(poor) but I can't predict the weather's roar
They hate Rob with his problems and his cares
His issues with the haters and his incessant swears
But love Novi with his with no fear
From one mixtape to being axiomatically so rare
I super swear with this breath to speak
N' this United States freedom of speech
I'm the intersect where soul, life, music and truth meet
And lordy oh lordy Ima preach
Get em now
[Hook]
Take em back to the time
When my name wasn't here
Back to when nobody cared, but stillI rep, I rep, I rep, I rep Chicago
Chicago
It's all about respect if it ain't, don't care
Tell them muhfuckas I'm here
But still, I rep, I rep, I rep
I rep Chicago
Chicago
[Verse 3]
Self-made business plan, PLUS the songs are killin
N' think the 1st mixtape got me known by millions
So real and boy I love the feeling
The only soldier at war to dress civilian
Other rappers diss me, cause I ain't know they work
Then I destroy em and they mad like they ain't diss me first
Stupid move, when you can see on all my tracks
There's enough fire to keep Frankenstein back
And it hit em
[Hook]
Take em back to the time
When my name wasn't here
Back to when nobody cared, but still
I rep, I rep, I rep, I rep Chicago
Chicago
It's all about respect if it ain't, don't care
Tell them muhfuckas I'm here
But still, I rep, I rep, I rep
I rep Chicago
Chicago
