	My City

	[featuring mylik yusef]
	This the city of chicago
	The state of confusion
	The style i'm using is free
	Or at least it would be if my mind was
	Peep i'm behind cause
	I didn't handle my function while in high school
	Although i was cool
	The hood i live in ain't that proper
	Cause a cop a stop ya
	And have you at a hundred and eleventh before you can say not guilty
	I'm not filthy
	Nor am i rich
	Ain't that a bitch
	Like life is
	Not your wife is
	See that your better halve
	Do your math
	And peep that two halves make a whole
	And all i have to hold
	Is my self pride
	So these streets i strive
	Like a black panther
	Asking can the
	Situation get much worst
	All i do is try to appeal to the masses
	As the phrase keep it real passes
	The teeth of too many phoney individuals
	Snakes, that smooth like criminals
	They create chemicals
	That the earth hate
	Doing their damndest to decrease my birth rate
	I'd settle for lesser knowing i'm worth wait
	Or at least my weight in precious gems
	So i'm steadily steadly steadly
	Trying to lose my religion, like r e m
	Created in his own image so are we him?
	And through all this crises
	Shid(shit) i wonder where christ is
	Well he damn sure not in k town or the wild hundreds
	Where they broadcast g.d. till the world blow-up
	And stone run it
	Hunted by police for display in state vile cages
	Come out to make minimum wages
	And with a desiese that are contagious
	It is fucking outrages
	The amounts of black and brown they lock up
	But the most high encourages me to put the glock up
	And stock up on do for self knowledge
	A brother couldn't afford to go to collage
	So i had to learn form the school of hard knock
	On the hard blocks of the chi
	Even i, think about moving out to river oaks
	As my liver soaks
	In mad hennesy
	Cause i got a bad tendency
	To do a lot of drinking
	Now i do a lot of thinking
	Blinking, was your third eye
	When you heard i
	Was one of the chosen one
	Industry doors keep closing
	(sing) watch the closing doors
	Niggas want a record deal
	But can they deal with a record?
	Cause once they get rich
	They tend to switch
	Like a sissy
	Please miss me
	With all that bullshit you popping
	This knowledge i'm gonna keep dropping
	Even if you had one of them red octagon
	Motherfuckers say mylik how you make your living?
	I say by breathing oxygen
