Walk through the meanest city, New Orleans Weight on my shoulder, crack in my draws Roll on the road, pump in the closet I'm at work, I'm at the store, nine in my shirt Give a fuck about a life sentence, running from the cops, skipping fences They're relentless, I'm crime-addicted I just spend it, rob for digits I done found my vision Just when they said I couldn't do this shit, now I'm good Count my blessings, young niggas in the hood free-styling, count my sessions I don't know what you reppin Far from a rat, but I'm 'bout this chatter Fuck that gold plack, I'm the stand And I'mma bring it back, like a scratch record You don't know, you better ask questions I come from downtown, I represent downtown I'mma bring it back downtown, bring it back downtown I'm waiting 'til the rain turn to sunshine Sometimes, I can't see what's really changed, like I became blind That little nigga was a pain, not on my side Fight anybody, don't care, 'cause I'm from nine Master key stole and dodge, was a dumb crime Run fast, pick up the gat, get out, then do time I give a fuck about a one time To my peeps, rest in peace, I ain't done crime You know I'm reppin where I'm from, every frickin time Downtown New Orleans, six four seven nine And I ball hard, eight-ball Phantom Nightfall, you know how we roll I'mma bring it back to the hood, like I just touched down Fuck around, get put down Trap around my vally, animals walk around it Cop a bust down, but that was back then Rather rap than be rapped Came a long way from trapping and dabbing I come from downtown, I represent downtown I'mma bring it back downtown, bring it back downtown
