  • 作曲 : Macklemore
    "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 it 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 **** 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 it's 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"
