My City

Take me back to the city that I call my city
Where everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people that I call my people, yeah
I'm a long, long way from my city, my city

Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
From my city, my city
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

This one goes out to the ones that feel like an underdog
Used to write me off, now they changing up the dialogue
Raise a glass to the past and all them that we're proving wrong
You can take me out the city, but I brought my fam along, yeah

And the memories replay in my head
But I won't let them burn me again
I came too far just to let go
Baby, I'm coming back home
Coming back home

Take me back to the city that I call my city
Where everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people that I call my people, yeah
I'm a long, long way from my city, my city

Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
From my city, my city
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

And my city knew my name before the name came
Living in the fast lane, ain't have to change lanes
Had a hoodie on my head before the rain came
Sometimes family and friends, that's the same thing

I thought I knew all about pain 'til the pain came
But I'm still in the hall of fame 'cause I ain't hate the game
Never care about what it is or what it was
Never live your life in fear, livin' love for my city
Shed tears and shed blood
In my city, I lost the ones that I loved

Take me back to the city that I call my city
Where everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people that I call my people, yeah
I'm a long, long way

Take me back to the city that I call my city
Where everybody knows my name
Take me back to the people that I call my people, yeah
Yeah, I'm on my way to my city, my city

Ooh-ooh (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ooh-ooh (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ooh-ooh (take me back, take me back, take me back)
My city, my city
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh (my city, my city)
My city, my city

Ooh-ooh (take me back)
Ooh-ooh (take me back)
Ooh-ooh
My city, my city
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
My city, my city
