The City (Madison)

Yeah
This the real one baby
Look
My name is Philly
I hope you enjoying this album
This one for my city
Yeah
In the city where your dreams stay dreams
Where hard workers are made into memes
And I don't got no self esteem
One shot, it's all taken away from me
Look, I gotta make it out
Madison the city where they kill you for the clout
And it's all obsolete
It's like planting a seed, when you know it will never sprout
And life is filled with doubt
Then boom, from the concrete grew a rose
Then they want you in designer clothes
Then all of a sudden, you got hoes
It's all artificial, stick to shows
Money artificial, I'm just chasing joy
2nd round knock out, Illinois
And I gave her my heart to destroy
Now, I'm tryna ball on hoes, Colt McCoy
Look, I gotta make it out
I live in the city where they kill you for the clout
And it's all obsolete
It's like planting a seed, when you know it will never sprout
And life is filled with doubt
Then boom, from the concrete grew a rose
Tried to take my life, my soul was cold
Rest in peace the greatest, I was 16 on death row
I was dealing with some trauma, I had never been so low
Look, I'm a product of myself
Built a family, full of winners, made sure I was well
Helped me beat my demons, beat the devil and his spells
Made it feel like life was heaven, while I walked through hell
This the city where your dreams stay dreams
Where hard workers are turned into memes
And I don't got no self esteem
One shot, it's all taken away from me
