Part 1
The Machine Feat. Niko Potocnjak & Horst Porkert Lyrics

Bitch, I'm from (East), East 1999, the 9999
I am from the area known as East 1999, specifically the year 9999.

Bitch, I'm from The motherfuckin' land, get it straight
I come from the land, and it is important that you understand that.

Boy, you will get scraped Bitch, I'm from the motherfuckin' land of the apes Get the fuck out my face (Bitch)
If you disrespect me, you will face consequences. I am from a place where you need to be tough like apes, so get out of my face.

E'rywhere I go, I'm puttin' on E'rywhere I go, I'm blowin' strong E'rywhere I go (E'rywhere I go), everyday, everybody know In my hood, motherfuckers get it on
Whenever I am seen, I am representing and impressing. People in my area know me and respect me, and my neighborhood can be dangerous.

Puttin' on for the city like Snowman 'Cause in my city I don't snow, man And that ain't no diss to Jeezy 'Cause Jeezy know what's up, believe That's my nigga back in Puerto Rico 'Fore the rap shit popped, we were talkin' kilos Had a Puerto Rican bitch and I pulled the plug Big bottle on numbers and we call him Nino
I am putting on for my city like the rapper Snowman, but I don't actually sell cocaine. This does not insult Jeezy, who does rap about cocaine and who I know from Puerto Rico. Before I got into music, I would talk with Jeezy about selling kilos. I also had a girlfriend from Puerto Rico, and we referred to our large drug distributor as Nino.

Yo, one ounce and a pound back in north Memphis I'm a north Memphis nigga till I die, dawg
When I lived in north Memphis, selling drugs was common and I would sell one ounce or even one pound of drugs. I am loyal to my hometown.

Yeah, motherfuck a suit and tie, dawg We don't wear our hats to the back with the five, dawg
I do not want to conform to the typical corporate world with suits and ties. In my culture, we wear our hats backwards with the five fingers of our hand, or in a gang sign.

Bang, put the plug on chill Told 'em I ain't through yet, hell naw, I ain't retire, dawg I just want a piece of mind, dawg Why you hatin' on a nigga from the city? Lemme shine, dawg
I have paused my drug dealing for now, but I haven't retired completely. I just want some peace of mind. Why are people hating on me trying to make it out of the city? Let me do my thing.

Where I'm from (East), East 1999, the 9999
I am emphasizing, again, that I come from East 1999 in the year 9999.

I be drivin' all the foreign cars 'til the day I die Fuckin' all the foreign hoes 'til the day I die Went to hit the dealer, then a nigga drove it out When 'em doors go up, all them panties fallin' down
I will keep driving luxury cars and having sex with foreign women for the rest of my life. I once went to a car dealership and left with a car without paying for it. When I open the doors to my car, women are instantly dropping their panties.

Niggas ain't know me then, but 'em niggas know me know When I pull up in the Benz, all the jewels drippin' down I be fuckin' up arenas, all 'em hoes singin' now I be fuckin' with them boys that lift you off the ground
People did not know me before, but now they do. When I drive up in my Mercedes-Benz, all my jewelry sparkles and impresses. I am performing in arenas and making women sing along. I have connections with men who have money and can lift you off the ground.

I stand out, spent a hun'ed racks to put the band on it Shawty bendin' it over, let me land on it Grabbin' brown bags, Uncle Sam, homie Got the pussy jumpin', dove a HAM on it
I stand out because I spent a hundred thousand dollars to have a live band with me. Women are bending over and I am landing on them. I am grabbing bags of money, thanks to Uncle Sam. Women are excited and I am going ham.

Young nigga goin' hard If you talk about them cars, fuck y'all like the dealer Now, I did it for my dawgs I be smokin' out the jar like a dreadlock, haann
I am a young man striving for success. If you are not talking about cars and money, I do not want to hear it. I am doing all this for my friends. I am smoking marijuana and am so good at it that I'm like a Rastafarian.

Ay, Bleed, keep puttin' on I said keep puttin' on, Ray been puttin' on See, I bossed wit' my mans wit' the plug, put 'em on In the plug, put 'em on, yeah
My friend Bleed should keep working hard and impressing. Ray has been impressing too. I have hired and worked with my friends so that we can all make money together. I have connected them with the plugs, or drug suppliers.

Yeah, East Side for life I'm a real Cleveland legend, I'm a ride 'til the day I die Get high, bury me with my chrome .45 Now tell me, now tell me, do that sound familiar? If you from Cleveland, you all are familiar If you get money, one hundred, you know that we feelin' you Hold up, bitch, I'm from the land and y'all know that Y'all never should have let me go back
I will always represent the East Side of Cleveland and I am a true legend from there. I will never give up my lifestyle of getting high and carrying a gun. Does this sound familiar to you? If you're from Cleveland or have money, you should understand. Remember that I come from the land, and that it was a mistake to let me go back.

Even when I didn't had no plaque I was court side in the Cavaliers throwback I was only nineteen ridin' up Miles Back when I was nineteen turnin' up wild
Even before I had any success, I was sitting courtside at a Cleveland Cavaliers game wearing throwback jerseys. I was just nineteen years old and wild, driving up and down Miles Avenue.

I was in the flats when the land slanged goals Ridin' up Satchel when them boys slanged hoes I was on the clear when L came down Leavin' out of work, on to rap it downtown I was in the club when they played "We Ball" And I repped my hood and everybody started brawlin'
I was in the Flats district when people were selling crack cocaine. I was driving up Satchel Street when pimps were selling prostitutes. I was taking LSD when the artist L visited. I was leaving work to start rapping downtown. I was in the club when the song "We Ball" played and caused violence, but I still represented my neighborhood.

Back when I was sixteen, I was spittin' sixteen Hoppin' up the Blue Line on 116 Tryin' to get my fifteen minutes of fame, shit changed Now I'm on the big screen like...
When I was sixteen years old, I was rapping and making songs with sixteen bars. I was riding the Blue Line on 116th St. trying to become famous. Things changed and now I'm on the big screen.
