## Reception

Mitch Findlay of *HotNewHipHop* praised, "His ability to find and navigate unconventional pockets is placed on full display, as he sniffs them out with Bloodhound-esque efficacy.

## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Intro]

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey

[Chorus]

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

[Verse 1]

I'm back, I'm back, I'm cool, I'm cool, Westside representative

All me, no ghost, no 16-bit like Sega Genesis

All G-ball on the board, Soundtrakk

On the track, Gemini, on the job, Shayla G

On the G, Sarah Green, for the green, free Chilly

And I'm back on my thing for the listeners' ears

What you are about to-to witness is

[Pre-Chorus]

From the M-A-D-I-to-the-S-to-the-O-N

Potent, to get you open

Movin' like a n\*\*\*a supposed to

Get the dough on the go with the flow that I'm holding

[Chorus]

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

[Verse 2]

Love, got the Windy City on my back

So I'm back on my grizzle like a bearskin rug

Plus I'm laying on the floor, blame it on the Go

Little rapper turn it out because I'm very plugged

I convert, I can work anywhere in the world

You can ask my brother Hugg

He'll concur that I'm serious with the words

To the man up above, thank you very much

That I got what I got and I'm at where I'm at

Like an "a" in a circle, with a pay, lil Urkel

What they say when they see lil G

From the F to the F with the amazing verbals

While they race in a circle like they racing a gerbil

I race in a circle like I'm racing a horse

I'm racing a Porsche, while they racing in place

They race in a cage, I race on a course

'Course, that case in the court did not defer the dream

I am still a raisin in the sun, raging against the machine

[Pre-Chorus]

From the M-A-D-I-to-the-S-to-the-O-N

Potent, to get you open

Movin' like a n\*\*\*a supposed to

Get your dough on the go with the flow that I'm holding

[Chorus]

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

[Refrain]

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey

[Bridge]

Hey, hey, don't hate on me

My tank on full, your tank on E

Look good on you, look great on me

'Cause I'ma go and never gonna S-T-O-P

Like hey, hey, don't hate on me

My tank on full, your tank on E

Look good on you, look great on me

'Cause I'ma go and never gonna S-T-O-P

[Verse 3]

Like hey, hey, I'm the boss, rock Junya Watanabe Lacoste

Beyond clean, in phenom jeans, little rap Isaac Asimov

I love my momma and the ramen that she raised me off

A '80s baby on fire like the safety off

Got my hood riding higher than some 28s

Off of everything I spoke like a 84

And they in love with him and I'm in love with them

And we'll never ride dubs again, no we won't

Trying to get Above the Rim

A little too short to dunk, so we donk

[Pre-Chorus]

From the M-A-D-I-to-the-S-to-the-O-N

Potent, to get you open

Movin' like a n\*\*\*a supposed to

Get your dough on the go with the flow that I'm holding

[Chorus]

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

I got my go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go gadget flow

[Outro]

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, say now

I'm from the city in the Midwest

Best city in the whole wide-wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey

City in the whole wide world, hey
