lyrics

Monroe

(Intro)
Ha! Top Bill CMG. Brrrat Brrat Brrat Shoot you in the face Ha Ha Ha. Look. Ok. Ok.
Ok, my pants might sag but I switch up the swag,
Think I’m slow from the country but my mind moves fast,
And I’m all about my green like the ground full of grass,
Don’t know where I’m from here’s the answer if you ask

(Chorus)
I’m from that M-O-N-R-O-E, know me
T-O-P. Niggas know what’s real,
I’m from that M-O-N-R-O-E, know me
T-O-P. Niggas know what’s real,
When I get on for my city I’mma put on (NORTHSIDE)
When I get on for my city I’mma put on (EASTSIDE)
When I get on for my city I’mma put on (SOUTHSIDE)
When I get on for my city I’mma put on (WESTSIDE)

(Verse 1)
Ok, the bottom of the map is where I’m at,
Gotta come here if you want to find the kid who raps,
And I’m always killin’ tracks AKA Studio Rat,
Where I’m from we never ever had a super star that raps,
I’m the cat who gon’ change that, bring stacks,
They ain’t never seen that,
Throwin’ hundreds in the air,
Yeah, I’ll make it rain that,
Savage life is how we think gutter where our brains at,
If we bring the straps then the gutter where your brains at,
Small town but now I’ll proudly’ll claim that,
And if I blow up then I gotta bring acclaim back,
I’m the main act prepped and positioned,
To be my towns assistant like a preposition,
You label reps listen, I’m what your artists are missing,
The swag and intelligence to make them seem different,
I’m from where if they ain’t real they hit ‘em,
So there’s a deeper reason why I’m living… Get it?

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)
Not born here but where I roam,
Nowhere else could be my home,
And if I got one tatt I’d get ‘318’ alone,
On the microphone I’m well-rounded like a cone,
And for you people sleepin’ on me this here the methadone,
I’m on Auburn Ave. planted on these concrete slabs,
In my blue and White Ones tellin’ ya’ll where I’m from,
Garden District; down the street from where the levee runs,
Northside; Forsythe; Neville: that’s my old High,
I’m the one guy that doesn’t have to lie,
So not gutter but I know folk on the Southside,
I tell ‘em what it do. 3-Unit, AQ, Peace to OT too,
What up Pine Bayou!
One for the Eastside where they livin’ beast lives,
And where all the beef lies with G’s that keep 9’s,
What up to the West where they keep them rednecks,
But real niggas is out there don’t forget

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
I told my big little brother Will “I’m on that Volume 2 shit,”
I told Chris-Style “CipherMusicGroup’s the movement,”
I told Ronnie Cail “If you want it, we can do this,”
Told Monroe “I’m the best. I can prove this!”
Dropping all hits so you can’t say you’re clueless,
Smarter than your average so you can’t say I’m foolish,
My songs be the heat… don’t ask where the tool is,
And I’m the coldest fuck what the cool is,
Brutus, Brutus! Tell me who’s Brutus,
I’m feeling to powerful like Caear… Julius,
Monroe representer, hometown five percenter,
If I quit forever here will leave the map never,
I’m too clever and I’m getting better,
Like the old barbershop I’m on A-Nuh-Thuh level,
You should get a shovel… go ‘head and dig a hole,
You can’t compete with Top Bill: Mr. Monroe

(Chorus)
