City of YOU Lyrics by SJ the Artisan

Age of Phenom

2017

Uh, the City of YOU
Be all you can be, baby, do what’cha do
Uh, yeah, the City of YOU
Be proud of where you come from, ‘cause it defines you
Uh, the City of YOU
Be all you can be, baby, do what’cha do
Uh, yeah, the City of YOU
Be proud of where you come from, ‘cause it defines you
Man in my city, you can see the strong survived
We got that Y-Town, steel city grit
As real as it gets, we went through a lot of hard times
But now we cuttin’ through the barbwire
Comin’ out the trenches, city streets poppin’
Youthfulness engaged on university spots and
The bar scene’s boomin’, they support the movement
We got an outlet to plug them to this music
I, wake up every morning, strolling the city blocks
Pondering on the next move to get that guap, I’m
Fiendin’ to make it, tryna get adjacent
To these power players so I can make a huge statement and
Create change, further shape the landscape
I’m tryna get like Gary Vee, create legacy
That’s on my mind at 25, I ain’t got time for the petty drama
I, gotta grind for my great grandkid’s sake
Get cake, sell in bigger states until we break
Become an urban legend, I’m at this game’s neck
Like Gillette, I’m the best it can get
It’s like that y’all, It’s like that y’all
Chase dreams, put your city on the map, dawg
It’s like that y’all, It’s like that y’all
Chase dreams, put your city on the map, dawg, yeah
Uh, the City of YOU
Be all you can be, baby, do what’cha do
Uh, yeah, the City of YOU
Be proud of where you come from, ‘cause it defines you
Uh, the City of YOU
Be all you can be, baby, do what’cha do
Uh, yeah, the City of YOU
Be proud of where you come from, ‘cause it defines you
I rap for hustlers, dealers and customers
Dreamers who wanna crush it in life, a metaphorical rhyme
‘Cause in every city across the globe
One thing’s for sure, ya gotta handle ya business
I’m in this thang to win it, reach out, grab another
Teach ‘em the way, so they can bring in dollars and a hot supper
So they can continue to cycle in the supply chain
Create change, through the entire cityscape
It US or Else, right? I’m tryna take flight
I wanna see the sun rise and the city shine
I know it’s beautiful, like a bald eagle
I walk around my town just to greet the people
Meet a new face, kick back, have a conversation
About life and how we plan to roll the dice
It’s kinda nice bein’ in a town with so much grit
Everyone who visits comes to appreciate it
Be proud of where you come from
‘Cause ya city got ya back when ya blow up, uh
Wherever you go, it’s in side you
City of YOU, the tales of the hometown kid
It’s like that y’all, It’s like that y’all
Chase dreams, put your city on the map, dawg
It’s like that y’all, It’s like that y’all
Chase dreams, put your city on the map, dawg, yeah
Uh, the City of YOU
Be all you can be, baby, do what’cha do
Uh, yeah, the City of YOU
Be proud of where you come from, ‘cause it defines you
Uh, the City of YOU
Be all you can be, baby, do what’cha do
Uh, yeah, the City of YOU
Be proud of where you come from, ‘cause it defines you
