I guess them pretty blue skies over Gwinnett County got a disguise
I guess your eyes see us on this map
And make you think we ain't a trap
But I'm from that Nawf, N-A-W-F
Nawf Atlanta, we for real
85 North of Atlanta
Home of the Gwinnett County Braves
Out-of-towners looking out of place 'round here
Think it's sweet and disappear without a trace
Cops on our dash, see the plates and they stay
Apartment complex got a gate with a name
Stay trying to hustle 'round here, think there's money to be made
You get robbed by somebody underage
We don't rock brands like Vans, only J's
We don't use words like "hella" or "the bomb"
So many celebs that live in Gwinnett
Trying to say downtown when they tell you where they from
Me, I'm from the 'burbs, never had much on
White boy in black Hollywood representing slum
Yeah, I got long hair, I ain't ZZ Top
I got diamonds in my pinky ring and diamonds in my charm
I'm incredible at verse, running strong
First one that's done
Wanna battle me and you'll get murked one-on-one
We ain't on no battle rap
We used to rap about our habitat and all the work that we done
Camaro convertible turbo, we fed with the purple
We stand in a circle and puff
'Cause these bitches, they can twerk and then suck
And if you ain't got 'em fucking, then
You probably ain't assertive enough
Make your girl have a crush and I'm far from a heartthrob
Middle finger up, saying "Fuck Paul Blart"
Cops got the canine in the car lot
Someone just got shot up at the Marriott courtyard
Sicker than a car shop
People scheming to get that Miggini money
They ain't trying to drive a Dodge Dart
Drug deal gone bad up at Walmart
Better pay attention when you pitching in the ballpark, 'cause
These streets can be misleading
And it's one thing I know (I know)
Don't come around here flexing
I suggest you slow your roll
Trying to show up with your diamonds and gold
They gon' get you for your diamonds and gold
Everybody wants some diamonds and gold
And I'm dying for the diamonds and gold
I know in Georgia shit ain't peachy
So fuck what you been told
'Cause when this shit get greasy
We been known to go for broke
Trying to show up with your diamonds and gold
They gon' get you for your diamonds and gold
Everybody wants some diamonds and gold
And I'm dying for the diamonds and gold
From a middle class neighborhood
From '94 to '05, I was up at Eagle Point then
A lot of people wasn't born here
Moving in and out, never know who the neighbor next door is
Drug dealers trying to build clientele
So they telling everybody they got it, that shit was short-lived
Jackboys get work, kick your door in
Dope can be won in form, piff will whip your girlfriend
Hit a lick for four grand, now they got some cash to flaunt
And high school used lame kids to practice on
And made them empty out they pockets
Other kids dreaming of being astronauts
We was scheming to make a profit
The gun is underneath the mattress drawn
Making the chance of living half as long
A lot of homies from the past is gone
You wanna play games, better drain for the Tri-Gabson arm
'Cause ain't no games 'round here, ho
We ain't in no dorm room playing beer pong
Homies never made it into the millennium
Never forget 'em, shed a tattoo, cheers for 'em
Had 'em got a life sentence, he in Dooley State Prison
Send him money, if he need me, then I'm here for him
We done smoked so much weed, smoking weed ain't shit
Nor any hard drugs we could get our hands on
Man down, he was clean, started fuckin' with that meth again
It wouldn't be GC without Mexicans
Claiming turf, gang signs spray-painted on a picket fence
They gotta represent my set again
Back in the day, it was Becker Ridge, Crest and Lake
Sweetwater, Saratoga, and the Falls, just to name a few
So watch the lane you choose and who you bragging to
'Cause you could wind up getting robbed in the Nawf
These streets can be misleading
And it's one thing I know (I know)
Don't come around here flexing
I suggest you slow your roll
Trying to show up with your diamonds and gold
They gon' get you for your diamonds and gold
Everybody wants some diamonds and gold
And I'm dying for the diamonds and gold
I know in Georgia shit ain't peachy
So fuck what you been told
'Cause when this shit get greasy
We been known to go for broke
Trying to show up with your diamonds and gold
They gon' get you for your diamonds and gold
Everybody wants some diamonds and gold
And I'm dying for the diamonds and gold
They got a young nigga playing with the dope again
I'm in the kitchen on the Adderall focusing
I'm on the road doing shows with some hoes again
I hit the gas a couple times, then I hold it in
I'm in the street with the heat, I'm the seat
'Cause I bump into police so I run into my foes again
Because I hit a nigga tripping off the flavor that I'm kicking
And them diamonds start mixing with the gold, you see 'em
I been breaking down pounds on them Lortab 10s
On a bar and a half and I'm going back in
If you ever see a foreign car sliding on rims
Up 85, Nawf-Nawf, dawg, that's him
Just drive, I see 'em, I see 'em, I see 'em
All black tint, nigga, riding Nigerian
All white pack, we gon' call it Siberian
Loud pack on me, need no librarian
Nigga, Mexico City, that's the Nawf Cross area
Whole lot of killings, gon' need a pallbearer
Drinking on brown got you feeling barbaric
Still got a trap spot right on Harrison
Still got a trap spot jumping on Jimmy
I'ma dump the whole clip 'til it run empty
And my license expired, tell Rittz to come get me
We the only ones got a key to this city
My lawyers are pressing the evidence
I had some dope in my residence
I had some guns in my residence
I will not tell on the Mexicans
I will not tell on the Mexicans
They can indict it, I fight it, I swear to this
Shawty don't like me, I'm piping, I'm arrogant
Gambling boss on the Nawf and I carry it
We got Mariah, you buying, I'm selling it
These streets can be misleading
And it's one thing I know (I know)
Don't come around here flexing
I suggest you slow your roll
Trying to show up with your diamonds and gold
They gon' get you for your diamonds and gold
Everybody wants some diamonds and gold
And I'm dying for the diamonds and gold
I know in Georgia shit ain't peachy
So fuck what you been told
'Cause when this shit get greasy
We been known to go for broke
Trying to show up with your diamonds and gold
They gon' get you for your diamonds and gold
Everybody wants some diamonds and gold
And I'm dying for the diamonds and gold
