TheGCity ft. Cait Macklon Lyrics

No one knows me better than my city

No one knows me better than my city

No one knows me better than my city

Look, I grew up in the 'Deen

Where the weather is cold and the streets never clean

That's my city though

We sitting pretty though

Scotland's finest man, that's all you really need to know

The city taught me how to stand up

All my niggas in my circle we just fucking band up

St. Joe's, ISA, had to put my hand up

From the immature kid, bruh, I had to man up

I had my hardest times, I also had my best

This is home for me, I wear that shit across my chest

Boy to man it saw me grow, now I'm leaving the nest

Taught me just to be myself, that's the ultimate test

AB10 had me living carefree

AB32 saw me struggle to find out what it means to be me

Wouldn't change a thing about it 'cause it's my life

'Cause true say the lows are as important as the highlights

Back in the day when I would act up sometimes

I was a sheep and not a shepherd, didn't know what was mine

I tried to be like everybody else

At the time I was blind, not seeing any of the beauty in myself

Now, it took me a while to feel accepted, I can't lie

Too many times where I was steady painted as the bad guy

But I know sometimes that shit was valid

Wish I had another chance so I can try and be the best like Khaled

Gone

No one knows me better than my city

Take me to the sea where being free is easy

Every story, every feeling

The grass is always greener when it's here that I am living

One thing stays the same

When people grow up and seasons change

No one knows me better than my city

Aberdeen, man, the city is mine

Keep my head down, hustle hard and stay on the grind

Aberdeen, man, the city is mine

Keep my head down, hustle hard and stay on the grind

Look, I grew up in the 'Deen

Where the weather is cold and the streets never clean

AB10 to AB15

No matter where I go, I just gotta bring the team

Yo, blinding lights of the city

I'm proud to rep the north, I ain't never takin' pity

Hard times got a nigga on this track so gritty

Drippin' with the granite swag 'cause a nigga so pretty

From the ground up, I just rose like a phoenix

Hold the kingdom in my heart like I work for Square Enix

Pack a Kleenex, I'ma leave you sneezing

The weather and my bars must be related 'cause them bitches mighty freezing

Everyday of our lives it's gettin' colder and colder

Standing strong like Atlas, got the world on our shoulders

A nigga getting older, man times are changing

Rearranging my priorities, ideas exchanging

I got thick skin like the granite

My pen game on another planet

Local any time and place like I'm Janet

The city know me in and out, no need to disguise

From the cracks grew a rose, one that never dies

Yo, we only live in the moment

Yeah, we take all our skills then we perfect it and hone it

Put the city on my back like my grandmama sown it

We on top of the world, you could never dethrone it

No one knows me better than my city

Take me to the sea where being free is easy

Every story, every feeling

The grass is always greener when it's here that I am living

One thing stays the same

When people grow up and seasons change

No one knows me better than my city

The city taught me how to stand up

From that immature kid bruh, I had to man up

We on top of the world, you could never dethrone it

Put the city on my back like my grandmama sown it
