Lyrics
Okay, let's get it out
Enough with the small talk
I can count your lies
Like cracks on the sidewalk
Same old stories of
When we used to hang out
Down with the crowd
We had the whole gang out
Nothin' to do
With the boys in the crew
We knew we had to start
Something with you
So we took you down
To the ground with a round
Pound for pound
Another win for the hometown
Dissed like this
Mind over fist
And fist over your face
I'll chase you down
Like the cheese in a rat race
Soon, you'll regret
You ever deceived me
Crush your body like bugs on a TV
Rhythm of the streets
Stained with your bloodshed
The hammer of the gods
Hangs over my head
Shoot you down
To the ground with a round
Pound for pound
Let's hear it for the hometown
My God... pray for the city
A moment of silence
Let's overcome the guns
And the violence
If we give the youth
The keys to the mainstream
They won't have to waste
Their life in a daydream
"Why?" is the question
Drugs are the answer
Kills in a serial
Spreads like a cancer
Shoot you down
To the ground with a round
Pound for pound
Yes, grim is the hometown
Yes, grim is the hometown
Yes, grim is the hometown
Yes, grim is the hometown
Yes, grim is the hometown
Yes, grim is the hometown
Yes, grim is the hometown!
Yes, grim is the hometown!
