[Verse 1]
[F]Now when [G]I say [Em]2-0, you say
Nah, [F]you know the rest,
This is our scene
Our music, our [G]movement,
the his[C]tory lives through us
[F]I write to the beat and let life
play the guitar strings
Despite the [G]drama,
[Em]there's respect and camaraderie
[F]Every time one of my friends is
mentioned in my philosophy
It's a rite [G]of passage,
[C]I'm not trying to [G]be corny
I [F]got love for Sportn' Life, Alpha P,
[Am]Massline, and Onry
Every time somebody [Em]steps
out on the road
[F]They bring a little Northwest soul with them,
[C]amen
Alright then, just so you know
I try [F]to carry that everytime
that I rock a show
[Am]So, turn my sound up
[Em]Ri cochet off our mountain
[F]It's Good Medicine that Chief
Sealth would of been proud of
[C]This is our city, town pride, heart,
blood, sweat, [F]tears, I-5,
North, South side, vibe, live,
ride down [G]these city block[Em]s
And never [C]will we stopped
[F]They tryin' to shut down
the clubs that my city rocks
Now [C]Mr. Mayor why would you
enforce an ordinance?
Mu[F]sic it saves lives,
these kids out here are supporting it
And through the [G]art form [C]we've learned the
im[G]portance of [F]community
Truth to the youth so
they know what's up
[G]Yup, and as a [C]public school student
[F]I learned from my teachers,
but became through my music
[Am]Take that away, that[Em]'s a vital
[F]14 Fathoms Deep, Do the Math, Tribal
[C]My greatest teachers: Beasope and
[Am]Bida[F]
Wordsayer was my mayor and
things have changed
[Am]But I carry the torch and what
I [Em]do with that flame
[F]Is lit everytime that I step
[C]on the stage
The skyline [G]is etched in my [C]veins
You [F]can never put that out,

[Verse 2]
no matter how hard it rains
[Am]That[C]'s[F]
[C]right,[Em][F]
[Am][C][F]
[C][Em][F][Dm]
[Db]when[F] you[G] p[C]ut on a show
And watch [F]the people seat in between
the creases and the doors
Hitting [G]up Meli or sneak[Em]ing in
'cause they're [G]broke
Now leav[F]ing in between sets because
of needing to smoke
The reason being [G]whatever
The scene [C]from Beacon to Everett
Is [F]in need of less ego when
we kick it alright
I get on stage, [G]style, [Em]share my whole [C]life
Try [F]to reach 'em at the bar where
they're drinking Miller Lite
[Am]But the kids in the front,
[Em]they bring out the passion, dude
[F]Make noise throughout the show and
not only when we ask 'em to
[C]I watch the older cats jaded in the back
Hands [F]clasped,
forgot when they weren't too cool to be a fan, damn
[Am]Hatin' at the concert
[C]You don't remem[Em]ber RKC[F]NDY, watching
Heiro, or vibing out [C]to Alkaholiks
I know, it's not the same, it never will [F]be
But my, my, my, my city's filthy
And we've [G]been truly [Em]dope since Supreme
was up [F]on Broadway in the dookie rope
Mean muggin' in Sir [G]Mixalot's video
[Em]Back when Scene was rockin'
[F]house parties on the floor
JMG's, Sit N' Spin, and The [G]Paradox
[Em]Back when [C]Market intro
[F]duced Geo to Sabz
So much has changed here,
[G]so much has not
[Em]I was [C]just a kid hopin[F]'
I could earn my spot
Try to get some props
[Am]Meet a promoter who'll give [Em]me a shot
To let [F]me get up on stage
and get the crowd to rock
Read a [C]page out my notebook
What I thought would be [F]re spected,
they would connect with it
Now [Am]looking over the city's the only
[Em]thing that keeps me calm
Scattered [F]thoughts jotted down
by this pen in my palm
It's like [C]my city stands still,
[G]the world [C]looks on
If [F]I could only capture it's beauty and put it in a song
