Not My Video Lyrics: "First memories of Seattle Hip Hop" "I remember the Sit 'N Spin" "Listening to Rap Attack, listening to Nasty Nes on Rap Attack" "Silver Shadow D, B-Mello" "That Do the Math, just hit me in my dome" "The Poetry Experience, that's where I really started writing" "...was RKCNDY" "Many ciphers, many battles, many sidewalks" "Held underground parties in Langston Hughes Township" Now when I say 2-0, you say Nah, you know the rest, This is our scene our music, our movement, the history lives through us I write to the beat and let life play the guitar strings Despite the drama, there's respect and camaraderie Every time one of my friends is mentioned in my philosophy It's a rite of passage, I'm not trying to be corny I got love for Sportn' Life, Alpha P, Massline, and Onry Every time somebody steps out on the road They bring a little Northwest soul with them, amen Alright then, just so you know I try to carry that everytime that I rock a show So, turn my sound up Ricochet off our mountain It's Good Medicine that Chief Sealth would of been proud of This is our city, town pride, heart, blood, sweat, tears, I-5, North, South side, vibe, live, ride down these city blocks And never will be stopped They tryin' to shut down the clubs that my city rocks Now Mr. Mayor why would you enforce an ordinance? Music it saves lives, these kids out here are supporting it And through the art form we've learned the importance of community Truth to the youth so they know what's up Yup, and as a public school student I learned from my teachers, but became through my music Take that away, that's a vital 14 Fathoms Deep, Do the Math, Tribal My greatest teachers: Beasope and Bida Wordsayer was my mayor and things have changed But I carry the torch and what I do with that flame Is lit everytime that I step on the stage The skyline is etched in my veins You can never put that out, no matter how hard it rains "Northwest, making you feel the vibe" "check how Seattle do" "coming to my side" "I mean I like how y'all do (thank you) but we on to new—" "Put it down for the town" "With music" "making you feel the vibe" "check how Seattle do" "coming to my side" "when my peeps know my crew bring the flame" "Put it down for the town" "Wearing that Seattle blue" That's right, when you put on a show And watch the people seat in between the creases and the doors Hitting the melly or sneaking in 'cause they're broke Now leaving in between sets because a needing to smoke The reason being whatever The scene from Beacon to Everett is in need of less ego when we kick it alright I get on stage, style, share my whole life Try to reach 'em at the bar where they're drinking Miller Lite But the kids in the front, they bring out the passion, dude Make noise throughout the show and not only when we ask 'em to I watch the older cats jaded in the back Hands clasped, forgot when they weren't too cool to be a fan, damn Hatin' at the concert You don't remember RKCNDY, watching Heiro, or vibing out to Alkaholiks I know it's not the same, it never will be But my, my, my, my city's filthy And we've been truly dope since Supreme was up on Broadway in the dookie rope Mean muggin' in Sir Mixalot's video Back when Scene was rockin' house parties on the floor JMG's, Sit N' Spin, and The Paradox Back when Market introduced Geo to Sabz So much has changed here, so much has not I was just a kid hopin' I could earn my spot Try to get some props Meet a promoter who'll give me a shot To let me get up on stage and get the crowd to rock Read a page out my notebook What I thought would be respected, they would connect with it Now looking over the city's the only thing that keeps me calm Scattered thoughts jotted down by this pen in my palm It's like my city stands still, the world looks on If I could only capture its beauty and put it in a song "Northwest, making you feel the vibe" "check how Seattle do" "coming to my side" "I mean I like how y'all do (thank you) but we on to new—" "Put it down for the town" "With music" "making you feel the vibe" "check how Seattle do" "coming to my side" "when my peeps know my crew bring the flame" "Put it down for the town" "Wearing that Seattle blue"
