Tech N9ne
For the City
[Chorus: Head da Don]
I do it for the city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my worth, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in that Foreign switching through the fast lane
I do it for my city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my worth, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in that Foreign switching through the fast lane

[Verse 1: The Popper]
Tell every man, woman, and boy, girl ride (Girl ride)
Pushing KC's music 'til we, 'til we worldwide ('Til we worldwide)
I'm a representer, all I do is claim this place
Throw a lil' twist onto my music, lil' change of pace
Say that, say that on my back, like it's heat on me
816 global act is all I really think homie (All I think homie, think homie)
For my family and my relly's, for my deuces in the dirty
Now my homies in the celly (In the cellys, in the cellys)
All I know is A16 and 913
I'm KC the brand and I sport it like a sign on me (Like a sign on me)
I'm jugging, I'm rushing and I'm racing
When it comes to Kansas City, I'm the fucking inspiration

[Chorus: Head da Don]
I do it for the city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my worth, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in that Foreign switching through the fast lane
I do it for my city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my worth, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in that Foreign switching through the fast lane
[Verse 2: KC Young Boss]
(Hey, yeah)
I do it for my city, you hear me? My La Familia
Well unfortunately them bullets touch children like pedophilia
And that's a damn shame we gotta do better (Do better)
Put the guns down, save our town and do better (Yeah!)
Well this is killa city, so they don't care about gun laws
They throw up gang signs like basketballers doing jump balls
Hard [?] turned soft like a gun ball
And hustlas gotta get to that bag, sunrise 'til sun fall (Yeah)
I love my city, my city love me back
Run it through this grass like cheddar, my home's on my back (you hear me?)
I rather cheese than pepper like jalapeno poppers
Bro respect your elders, it's Boss, Tech and Popper

[Chorus: Head da Don]
I do it for the city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my w, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in the front, but you do the fast lane?
I do it for the city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my wife, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in the front, but you do the fast lane

[Verse 3: Tech N9ne]
Ooo wee! They see Tech in Kansas City, ayy!
Ooo wee! On a bright and sunny pretty day
Ooo wee! Always steppin' with a little bay
Ooo wee! Tecca N9na's what the kitty say
I'm in the city where most of the people don't fight
'Cause they only go blocka
The rest of us say if you trippin'
We swinging just like with Naomi Osaka
Is best you pay yo' homie your guap or
If you lessen with lonely, ro gotcha
The affection they show me no caca
Young Boss and no wonders Don [?] and Popper
Thank you for rocking with me in this pandemic
Against the man, the clan will get police man's finished, stand in it
KCMO KCK, we can win it
Only way they speak love, is playing damn tennis
Yates!
[Chorus: Head da Don]
I do it for the city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my wife, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in the front, but you do the fast lane
I do it for the city, I do it for the game
And everything I do, I do it for my last name
Started realizing my wife, and that's when the bad came
And now I'm in that Foreign switching through the fast lane
