[Intro]
Boondocks, yeah it raised me
Shitty city, still it changed me (changed me)
Concrete cough in my lungs
But I still love what it made me (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Brown stains on the block sign
Glass shards in the sunshine
Grandma prayin’ through the gunfire
We just laugh, say we just fine
Cold wind through a torn screen
Siren song as a morphine
Lost kids on the corner
Counting sins like a morph team
Back door deal in the alley
Blue bills in a burnt baggie
Wrong turn, get zipped, toe taggy
Still I walk like the world can't have me
[Chorus]
Boondocks, my rage city
Dirt on my shoes, but it look pretty
Grime in my teeth, but I talk greedy
I love the dope and the money, it need me (yeah, yeah)
Boondocks, my rage city
Heart too hard, but my palms itchy
Life so ugly, the cash so pretty
I love the dope and the money, it need me (it need me)
[Verse 2]
Bent pole where the kid crashed
Spray paint say “live fast”
Old head with the split mask
Still flip packs, still get cash
Liquor store with the thick glass
We all line for the quick pass
Past due on the light bill
But my chain hit like witchcraft
Mom call, say she worried
Phone die, I’m in a hurry
Chasing highs through the floodwater
Same block ‘bout to bury me, hurry
[Chorus]
Boondocks, my rage city
Dirt on my shoes, but it look pretty
Grime in my teeth, but I talk greedy
I love the dope and the money, it need me (oh, it need me)
Boondocks, my rage city
Heart too hard, but my palms itchy
Life so ugly, the cash so pretty
I love the dope and the money, it need me (yeah, yeah)
