City of Champions
Kellee Maize Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

[Chorus 2X]
We are in the city of champions, you say that it can't but, here it can be done
We are in the city of champions, you think it can't but, here it can be done
P-I-T-T-S-B-you-are-G-H, we up next.
We are in the city of champions, you say that it can't but, here it can be done
We are in the city of champions, you think it can't but, here it can be done
P-I-T-T-S-B-you-are-G-H, we the best.
[Verse:]
Yeah we in pa
Philly still okay, come on clear the way 412 all day
And you moving here
Nakturnal is near, grab an iron beer or shake it with no fear
Meet me downtown
Rock it to the ground
Wiz he spread a sound
Boys in blue got shot down
Now we're in a famous town
Buy another round drinking heavy giving pound
Purp n' dunny stackin' mounds
Steel was once our pride nyc built inside
A four rivers kinda mind
And now it's our time
See we got mad rings, Yeah that's my town
And we don't need bling, spread it all around
And we making rockets to the moon we bound
Dj Hug and Bonics, they be getting it down
Got our stanley cups
We don't give a what
Down at Shadow Lounge, we be doin' the butt
Nak ladies strut, out the hybrid truck
Yeah the pirates, uhhh, but we still feel the funk
And we meditate
We're daily feeling great
And we don't take no breaks, and we are never fake
Pittsburgh got that team, we got the star's gleam
Like rxc
Teaching kids with the cream
Hustlers and fiend, creatin' the dream
We extreme n'at know what I mean

[Chorus 2X]
We are in the city of champions, you say that it can't but, here it can be done
We are in the city of champions, you think it can't but, here it can be done
P-I-T-T-S-B-you-are-G-H, we up next.
We are in the city of champions, you say that it can't but, here it can be done
We are in the city of champions, you think it can't but, here it can be done
P-I-T-T-S-B-you-are-G-H, we the best.

[Verse 2:]
Robotic metropolis
Carnegie Mellon is shopping this
We build Manhattan here
But do not be scared my dear
Both sides of mirror are clear
Light workers are fighting fear
Fucking best and worst are here
Small pock curse in our stare
Killed the native Americans and in honor of them I will not swear again
Spirits are here and then
Also signed the first peace treaty
Some steel city suckas greedy
Laced and smoked and real seedy
Align the chi
Now the home of G20
Greenest city in the world, most livable
Meanest pity from a girl, shot down in critical
Got hospitals and jails
Saving folks and making bail
Center of Earth no pitch for sale
Down ya momz house singing scales
(Shani I love you!)
Only river going north
Other than the Nile
Mayans said with a kindly smile
The point of rivers will heal every child
Cleanse the sick from serious to mild
To a healing portal of power
A mere mortal who devourers
In our water take a shower
Our fruits will never sour
Elevated angle here in pistolvainia
It might strain ya
The paranoid stranger
See it as a danga' like we came from a manga'
A species not in danga' but Pittsburgh rearrange ya

[Chorus 2X]
We are in the city of champions, you say that it can't but, here it can be done
We are in the city of champions, you think it can't but, here it can be done
P-I-T-T-S-B-you-are-G-H, we up next.
We are in the city of champions, you say that it can't but, here it can be done
We are in the city of champions, you think it can't but, here it can be done
P-I-T-T-S-B-you-are-G-H, we the best.
We are in the city of
We are in the city of
We are in the city of
We are in the city of Champions
We are in the city of
We are in the city of
We are in the city of
We are in the city of Champions

Kellee is by far one of the most talented, influential, positive, realistic, deep, and true to humanity musicians I've ever found. She has made such an impact on me and many others. She is the best thing that has come to the rap scene in a very long time. Let's also give recognition to Apollo Poetry for his beautiful works. Thank you all for such depth and reality.

Amen to that brother!!! I always judge new talent as would I spend $25.00 for a CD of hers or his?? And with Kellee the answer is simple, HELL YES!!! Thanks for making us United States Marines smile, when there isn't a lot to smile about. Many Blessings, and Go PENGUINS/STEELERS/PIRATES!!!!!

Speak it out mother earth! To those who doubt her mad rap skills, GET LOST.. Possibly it will teach you a thing or two. She has flow and truths and that's all she needs. Every lover of Kellee will agree!
