## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Intro: Machine Gun Kelly]

Ay Dub, I think it's about time we put on for the city man

They lookin' like we forgot or something, never that

[Verse 1: Machine Gun Kelly]

Man, I'm so Cleveland it's a goddamn shame

So East side I'm a goddamn gang

Said you ain't heard about my goddamn name

Better ask around here, I'm a goddamn king

Man I put my work in these goddamn streets

Earned my stripes like a goddamn beast

Tatted up no shirt still got sleeves

And I'm good from heights to 116th

Mother fucker this me, Kells

Fuck the fame!

Still roll through the blocks where they up them thangs

With the same hoes that tatted up my name

I'm still the little white boy out of Shaker, mane

I go hard, off, in, dumb

But you don't wanna test my G

Because I got one thou', two thou', three thou', four thousand soldiers in EST

Bow, Bow

[Hook: Machine Gun Kelly]

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

You know I put it down for (Cleveland)

I rep my state, my hood, my side of town in (Cleveland)

King of this shit, that's why I wear my crown in (Cleveland)

So don't come around Cleveland

Bitch I'm from (Cleveland)

Tatted it on my arm you know I'm reppin' (Cleveland)

This where I'm from you wanna hate, don't step in (Cleveland)

Laced Up I got to keep on running (Cleveland)

Yeah, yeah!

Bitch I'm from Cleveland

I say bitch I'm from Cleveland!

[Verse 2: Dub-O]

Okay

I done came from a long way

Fuck y'all I love where I stay

Cleveland my city put the pedal to the side

You know how we ride

Hate on me? No hate on your momma

Cause she birthed you

And you ain't worth a dolla'

Shit sour smoke

Put kush in my throat

Getting money little n\*\*\*a

Later on I'mma holla'

Dub-O!

Do I know you? Nope

I don't know!

Do I know you?

East side, let's go

I could show you

West side got tools, no pro tools

I know a couple n\*\*\*as down the way

East High School, yeah, I went down the way

Aye

'98 I pulled in Cleveland

Ever since then I've been down to stay

I got adapted quick man, I'll snatch ya bitch

Bankroll, Pringle, have to stack my chips

Oh no, I ain't play much

But E.S.T. be the team I play fo'

I got love for the n\*\*\*as that fuck with me

No love for the n\*\*\*as that don't fuck with me

It don't matter if I'm out of town

Everywhere I go I let 'em know I'm Cleveland bound

[Hook: Machine Gun Kelly]

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

You know I put it down for (Cleveland)

I rep my state, my hood, my side of town in (Cleveland)

King of this shit, that's why I wear my crown in (Cleveland)

So don't come around Cleveland

Bitch I'm from (Cleveland)

Tatted it on my arm you know I'm reppin' (Cleveland)

This where I'm from you wanna hate, don't step in (Cleveland)

Laced Up I got to keep on running (Cleveland)

Yeah, yeah!

Bitch I'm from Cleveland

I say bitch I'm from Cleveland!

[Verse 3: Machine Gun Kelly]

Man I'm east side right here, did crime right here

Blood, sweat and tears I cried right here

Tatted my city and showed pride right here

Looking at it like 'this mine right here'

So what you talking about; I can't ride right here?

You motherfuckers think I'm gonna hide right here?

Raised in this god damn city

No I wasn't born in it, but believe I'mma die right here

Cleveland bred, Cleveland fed

My Cleveland girl give me Cleveland head

And anybody saying that Cleveland's dead

Fuck y'all!

Tell them that's what Cleveland said

Cleveland fit, Cleveland hat

Anywhere I go is where Cleveland's at

So when the world ends I think you'll know where we'll be at

Bitch right here in Cleveland

[Hook: Machine Gun Kelly]

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

You know I put it down for (Cleveland)

I rep my state, my hood, my side of town in (Cleveland)

King of this shit, that's why I wear my crown in (Cleveland)

So don't come around Cleveland

Bitch I'm from (Cleveland)

Tatted it on my arm you know I'm reppin' (Cleveland)

This where I'm from you wanna hate, don't step in (Cleveland)

Laced Up I got to keep on running (Cleveland)

Yeah, yeah!

Bitch I'm from Cleveland

I say bitch I'm from Cleveland!

[Outro: Machine Gun Kelly]

Hold it down, bitch

Midwest, we hold it down bitch

And know my man is king of this city y'all

Where I'm from, we all royalty

EST, biatch

Lace Up!
