about

This track is a personal analysis of not only my small town but most small towns and how creatives are generally viewed.

lyrics

Down in RVA



Broad street can you handle this

Can you handle this ?

Broad street can you handle this ?

Y’all Can’t handle this!


Y’all ain’t ready for this

9 mile can you handle this

3 Chopt can you handle this


I’m everything and a bag of chips

only got 1 view on my flicks

Mama thinks that I should quit

But I can really spit

Honey I’m on a roll -no

No chicken noodle , but I got alot soul

Richmond’s full with a lot of tolls

Lots of bridges with grumpy ol trolls



I’m doing this here cause a boys mission

Baby I’m going there’s no intermission

And don’t try to get in my way

I do not care what you will say

I’m doing this here for my brothers and sisters

Maybe just maybe I’m the elixir

And don’t try to get in my way

And don’t try to complicate



Down in RVA where’s the hero’s made

Tryna make it happen tryna get it made

Down in RVA where the hero’s made

Gotta leave this town before I dull n fade

Down in RVA where’s the hero’s made

Tryna make it happen tryna get it made

Down in RVA where the hero’s made

Gotta leave this town before I dull n fade




These locals extra

Extra , like the gum

Y’all wanna be fresh

While y’all really dumb

Like

Sit back , relax , chit chat chit chat

But

Y’all tic tac , snip snap and pinch me back

So I crack a smile , and crack the code

Just a avoid the hate , avoid the hoes

And I Stay on my tippy toes

So I’ll crack the safe and get the gold

So your crib in short pump

You think you got it made

Cause dear daddy told ya that this is where players play

The ones with the Sperry’s , the ones who skip the jays

The ones who talk smack and say “this is gay “

Well let me tell you now that daddy just told you wrong

There’s movers in The bay , and shakers in Hong Kong

There’s shooters in LA , and gangsters up in the Bronx

Don’t dream west broad , but dream on long

I’m so funny

I’m just so funny

Wait till I withdraw all dat money

I’m so funny

I’m just so funny

Wait till I withdraw like

I’m so funny

I’m just so funny

Wait till I withdraw all dat money

I’m so funny

I’m just so funny

Wait till I withdraw like

I’m doing this here cause a boys mission

Baby I’m going there’s no intermission

And don’t try to get in my way

I do not care what you will say




The meanest dragon you will ever see

Is about to fly over the va scene
