Lyrics

Intro
Real recognize real homieÂ?.Yeah, My Block Anthem
ItÂ?s My Block AnthemÂ?.My Block AnthemÂ?.My Block Anthem

Verse 1
Streets are talking all you hear is whisper
Nobody knows my name, they call me mister
Hot new off the shelf like Vista
YouÂ?re just a summer breeze, but IÂ?m a twister
IÂ?m cutting deep homie, you think you really know me
IÂ?m as real as it gets, so donÂ?t you run up on me
Pack heat, split shots, reload the clip in
Lyrical homicide, youÂ?re storyÂ?s written
IÂ?m in a state of psychosis
Represent so many peeps, IÂ?m like a modern day Moses
Top-shelf, dropping cats like Frank Nitti
From the Bay area to New York City
I be the one they call for back-up (back-up)
Slap a muzzle on the snitches before I act up
IÂ?m holding Hip-Hop ransom
Locked tight until I speak againÂ?ItÂ?s My Block Anthem

Chorus
My Block Anthem - My Block, My Hood, My City
Recognize where you from cause we show no pity
My Block Anthem Â? My Block, My Hood, My City
Real recognize real, when itÂ?s time to get gritty
(Repeat)

Verse2
Check it, I be the same rapper, you screaming who it is
Representing my city, no matter where I live
Back doors, making moves to keep me in the biz
ItÂ?s me against the world, I gotta feed my kids
I step to the future, IÂ?m collecting steam
High velocity homie, youÂ?re living pipe dreams
AintÂ? got no friends neither, ask who I am (he the)
Top dog on the roster, plus I run these streets
IÂ?m collecting dollars, always pop my collars
My call to duty, lead not follow
Heavyweight hitter, only out to gain
Kick you to the curb and then I make it rain
AinÂ?t got no warning shots, thatÂ?s a waste of time
IÂ?m battle-tested, youÂ?re shaking on the front line
TimeÂ?s up, youÂ?re out of luck like Bob Hansen
Confessions over, you best respect My Block Anthem

Chorus
My Block Anthem - My Block, My Hood, My City
Recognize where you from cause we show no pity
My Block Anthem Â? My Block, My Hood, My City
Real recognize real, when itÂ?s time to get gritty
(Repeat)

Verse 3
Now, my composition is a break through
I keep it real, keep it street, huh, IÂ?ve got a venue
Rhymes can cause revelations
IÂ?ve a course on how to write raps, you need to take one
IÂ?m on the verge of cataclysmic (clysmic)
And if you rep your city, you gotta fee this
You can say IÂ?m flamboasting
Five-OÂ?s on the street trying to break to commotion
And so IÂ?m back on the grind dog
Recognize where I be and what it takes to be a Boss Hogg
IÂ?m smoking lyrics like these cigarettes
Best refined your allegiance, huh, or be a suspect
Time to search for salvation
If you donÂ?t drop your little microphone, IÂ?m john blazin
IÂ?m game pointing like And-1
So you better learn your place kidÂ?ItÂ?s My Block Anthem

Chorus
My Block Anthem - My Block, My Hood, My City
Recognize where you from cause we show no pity
My Block Anthem Â? My Block, My Hood, My City
Real recognize real, when itÂ?s time to get gritty
(Repeat)
