Cleveland
Machine Gun Kelly Lyrics

Man I'm so Cleveland It's a god damn shame
I am heavily rooted in Cleveland and it's a shame if people don't recognize the city's impact on me.

So east side I'm a god damn gang
I represent the East Side of Cleveland and embody the qualities of a gang member.

Said you aint heard about my god damn name
If people haven't heard of me, they must be living under a rock.

Better ask around here I'm a god damn king
People in the area know I am royalty, so go ahead and ask around.

Man I put my work in these god damn streets
I've worked hard to gain respect in the Cleveland streets.

Earned my stripes like a god damn beast
I have gone through some tough times and have earned my stripes through those experiences.

Tatted up no shirt still got sleeves
I have tattoos all over my arms, but I still have my sleeves on.

And I'm good from the heights to 116th
I am respected throughout the city, from the Heights to 116th street.

Mother fucker this me Kells
I am Machine Gun Kelly, and this is who I am.

Fuck the fame
I don't care about the fame, it's not what drives me.

Still roll through the blocks where they up them thangs
I still drive through the blocks where people sell drugs.

With the same hoes that tatted up my name
I hang out with the same people who have my name tattooed on them.

I'm still the little white boy Outta shaker man
I'm still a white boy from Shaker Heights, and I represent that.

I go hard Go in Dunk
I give my all and have a lot of energy when I perform.

But you don't wanna test my G
You don't want to get on my bad side.

Because I got 1 (thou) 2 (thou) 3 (thou) 4 thousand soldiers at EST
I have a lot of supporters in the influential music collective, EST.

Ay done came from a long way
I've come a long way to get where I am today.

Fuck yall I love where I stay
I don't care about what others think; I take pride in where I reside.

Cleveland the city put the penny to the side You know how we ride
In Cleveland, we don't need to worry about the little things that don't matter. Our actions will speak louder than words.

Ay hatin on me no hatin on your mama Cuz she birthed you And you aint worth a dolla She show us hope
Don't hate on me because it's not worth your mother's time. My mother, on the other hand, gave me hope for the future.

Put kush in my throat Gettin money rollin nigga later
I like to smoke weed, but I also focus on making money in my career.

Do I know you? East side lets go I can show you West side got 2's no pro tools
Even if I don't know you, I will still represent Cleveland and the East/West side. West side is also known for their car rims.

I got a dag equipt Now to snatch a bitch
I have weapons to protect myself, and will use them if necessary.

Egg roll pringle now to stack my chips Yup oh no I aint play much But EST be the team I pay for
I am trying to make money, and I'm not playing around. I invest in EST as my team. Egg rolls and Pringles are diet staples when you're a broke artist.

No love for the niggas don't fuck with me
I don't show love to people who don't show love back.

It don't matter if I'm out of town Everywhere I go I let 'em know I'm Cleveland bound
I represent Cleveland no matter where I go, and will make sure to let anyone know that.

Man east side right here Did crime right here Blood, sweat tears I cried right here
I am from the East side and committed crimes here. I have experienced a lot of emotions in Cleveland.

Tatted my city to show pride right here Lookin at it like this mine right here
I have tattoos of Cleveland, to show my pride in this city that I call mine.

So whatchu talkin bout I can't ride right here You motha fuckas think I'm gon' hide right here?
Don't tell me I can't represent Cleveland, and don't think for a second I will back down.

Raised in this god damn city No I wasn't born in it But believe I'm gon' die right here
I was raised in Cleveland, and although I wasn't born here, I will be proud to die here.

My Cleveland girl give me Cleveland head
My girl from Cleveland knows how to treat me right.

And anybody saying that Clevelands dead Fuck yall Tell em that's what Cleveland said
Don't even try to say Cleveland is dead. We will show you with our actions and prove you wrong.

Cleveland fit Cleveland hat Anywhere I go's where Clevelands at
I will always represent Cleveland, no matter where I am.

So when the world ends I think yall know Where we'll be at Bitch right here in Cleveland
When the world ends, I will still be in Cleveland. This is my city, and I am proud to call it home.

Midwest we hold it down bitch And no one man is king of this city yall Where I'm from we all royalty EST biatch Lace up
We hold it down in the Midwest, and no one person is above the city. We are all royalty in EST, so let's stay strong.
