[Intro]
Yo, it's all about the block, the spot, where we turf, yo
Representin' hard, call it our universe
[Verse 1]
From the city streets where the beat never sleep
With my crew, on the grind, promises we keep
Spittin' these truths, let the story unfold
In the heart of the 80s, bold and cold
Boombox blaring, bass hitting deep
Every corner, every alley, secrets we keep
Raised on the hustle, rhythm and pride
In this good ol’ area where we reside
[Pre-Chorus]
Hands up, wave 'em side to side
This is our wave, our pride, our vibe
No matter where we go, this is where we stay
Representin' our area every day
[Chorus]
Area pride, ain't no denyin'
We rise above, keep it flyin'
From dusk till dawn, our soul’s alive
This is our home, where we survive
Area pride, stand tall, stand proud
Make the whole world hear our sound
Real talk, from the block, let it be known
This area got us, heart and soul shown
[Bridge]
Flashback to the days when we used to spin
Cyphers in the park, where we begin
Legacy in every rhyme we spin
East Side, West Side, kings and queens within
[Outro]
So remember the name, remember the sign
In our area, forever shine
This is more than a city, it's our state of mind
Represent for life, till the end of time
